One day in 1970, my parents went out to buy a Siamese cat and came home with two. Siamese have been part of my life much of the time since. Today’s picture shows brothers Hershey (at the front) and Pushkin who were the first Siamese which ever belonged just to me. Sadly, Hershey died in July 2009, but Pushkin is still around, getting fur all over the place.
