I want to adopt another kitty at the shelter. The one we had last time was a female calico. All the kittens are about 9 months old in the shelter. I want to get a siamese breed but my dad says their mean. I think they're kind and gentle. We couldn't get a cat before because my dad's girlfriend's daughter hates cats. Why? Because a siamese cat "attacked" her. Now that she is moving out to college we can get a cat. What can I do to convince my dad to get a siamese cat? Can you tell me a little bit about their personalities and culture. And maybe why everyone seems to claim that they are mean. Thanks :)

  2. "They also have a great need for human companionship. Often they bond strongly to a single person. These cats are typically active and playful, even as adults"

  3. Do you have a friend that own's a Siamese?  Maybe if he saw that the cat wasn't a problem in another household he would be more willing to reconsider.  It's all in your approach.  

    Write down all the positives and negatives you can think of for owning a Siamese.  When you have your discussion with your father, make sure you have a positive to state for any negative that your dad might offer.  

    Remember to discuss your responsibility and be positive :)
