This
is Mezzy, our very special Siamese cat. She has a number of different
names including 'Sasha' which was her name when she was born, Sunshine,
Sweetness and a bunch more. My stepdad got her for us when I was fourteen
years old and she immediately became my cat. I moved out when I was
eighteen and she has been by my side ever since, surviving over half a
dozen moves (which most cat owners know can be traumatizing for a cat). My
second cat Carmel, whom I also had since I was fourteen years old passed
away three years ago. Mezzy and he were very close and she took his
passing hard at first, but within a month or so we noticed a difference in
her. It was almost as though she finally realized she was the only pet
now, so now all the attention would be devoted to her. She became more
affectionate and outgoing.
Unfortunately most Siamese cats have a bad rep or are known as being
snobby, but Mezzy is far from this. She is very loving, caring, trusting
and forgiving. I don't know how many times in a week I will trip over her
in the hall, accidentally kicking her, but she forgives me right away.
She'll give me a dirty look at first and then rub up against me. She also
knows when I'm upset and will plant herself right on my lap. Once in a
while my husband and I will pretend to fight, by yelling at each other,
and she gets right in the middle of it and starts yelling back, it's quite
funny. My husband was not a cat lover until he met Mezzy. He swears he
doesn't like cats but the bond between them is obvious, and actually
sometimes makes me a little jealous.
This is a great picture of Mezzy, but you need to look at it carefully!
She often forgets to tuck her tongue back into her mouth after cleaning
herself or yawning. She makes me laugh every day. She brings such
happiness to our family every day and I'm confident she will live to be at
least 20 years old.
