I adopted a feral cat who has all the markings of the Siamese breed, but set into a plump tabby body. She is a delight! However, we are still not at a point that I can touch/hold/pet her...
(She is coming up to sniff my fingers on a pretty regular basis now, and is a well-behaved kitty, but long stretch between this and touch/hold/pet!)
She was likely born sometime last summer, and I began feeding her early November, and brought her home early January. Last night, I finally got to see when she cleans her 'private' places. She has the Siamese markings there, too.
I am not certain whether she is indeed a girl, or a boy, and could not find anything to answer this online.
Do Siamese males have the markings between the hind legs, or is it present in both male and female kitties? Mai Thai has all the markings of the Siamese - legs, ears, tail, face.
And this, between the hind legs.
I have not taken her to the vet yet, as I had no help getting her home, and had to go from work to home in a taxi - long story, but it will likely be much later in her developing relationship with me before I can get her to the vet to either be spayed or neutered.
And would very much like to know whether she is a girl or a guy!
Will do pictures at some point - she is a beauty!
