In reply to the discussion: In case you haven't seen the grumpy cat photos yet... Now with the Obamas. [View all]Panasonic
(2,921 posts)41. Now my heart is melting.
I just might adopt a snowshoe kitten just to defy my wife. My sister has two huge Maine Coon cats and they don't like my son (maybe because he's 3. They actually prefer gentle people - and my son was a bit rambunctious with the cats)
My other sister has a dog - never met him or seen my youngest niece - they all live in Israel.
My question is this: is there a snowshoe siamese rescue I could contact?
One other question that *MAY* convince my wife - are they good mousers?

Nah, just let a tabby and a Siamese do the wild thing and you'll get a snowshoe

I let cats in/out automatically so I'm not even fully aware of whether they are in or out.

alas, I have to do a critter check (Riff Raff's mouth) before allowing entrance
