Giles ,'Conversations with Dead People'
Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon: Madison, WI from June 20-22 2008! Official website.
Oh, so you're more of a traditionalist when it comes to black cats....
That should not come as a suprise to you.
Want mine? He even has a fang....
(No, I'm not really giving him away, he's just Very Put Out with me for leaving him alllllllllll alone for 4 days - nevermind my friend N came over and spoiled him rotten each day - I still had to be reminded all through the night of how Horrible I am for abandoning him.)

Dude, I can see just from the pictures that that cat is a royal pain in the ass.
Which is not to say I don't want one.

Well, they're essentially the same as a "wedge-head" Siamese, but without the Siamese coloring, so you're probably right.
Siamese and Orientals are often described as "chatty," which is a euphemism for "Won't shut the fuck up."

Um, no. I bred sealpoints for years, and they're no chattier than most other cats, except on an individual basis.
I sometimes used to wish mine talked more, especially Tekla. I like a cat with something to say for herself.

Hmm. Maybe "chatty" mostly applies to the more modern "wedge-head" ones?
My cat never shuts up, and he looks like a Russian or British Blue. No accounting for breeding, I guess.
Also, the more you talk to a kitten while it's growing up, the more it will meow as an adult. A housecat that grows up away from humans won't meow at all as an adult (or so I've heard)... so apparantly at least part of a cat's chattiness comes from its owner(s)....
Yep - talk to them and they'll chatter. Tekla, my sealpoint blue ribbon queen, was a rock and roll cat; she'd belonged to a bigtime guitarist before me and she would love it when I sang, because she'd talk along with me. Mostly, though, she was mellow and not chatty.

Ah. That explains a lot about Dread Beast and Trinian.
My girls were silent for quite a while except Rosie would chirp every time I'd toss a toy for her to chase. Now Rosie talks when she wants attention, but it's still rare to hear anything out of Gilda.
