590.0. "Siamese Breeder" by MIGHTY::WILLIAMS (Bryan Williams) Thu May 14 1987 15:04

    Note 583.12 asked for a posting of the Siamese breeder we got our
    kitten from. I figured it deserved it's own note. Here it is:
    
    LINRO Cattery
    Linda and Robert Gare
    132 Norfolk St.
    Cranston, RI
    401-781-1759
    
    Cranston is just outside of Providence on 95S.
    
    This breeder is really special. Her cats want attention from anyone
    who will give it, which is not your usual Siamese stereotype. Imagine
    being decended upon by upwards of 20 cats all wanting to be petted
    and held and scritched. Her lines have some Australian background,
    so you get a slightly different bone structure (larger) in your adult 
    cats. Very sweet personality (the cats).

    Thanks Bryan.  I think that I may give them a call sometime this
    summer and then drive down "just to take a look".  I'm sure I'll
    wind up coming home with a new kitty face!

    "Just take a look," huh?  
    
    They'll have to search your pockets to rescue all the little ones!

    I was at the vet last night and they had 8 six-week old kittens
    waiting for homes.  The sign said "ASK TO SEE US."  no way!

590.3No ... No ... a thousand times NO!MASTER::EPETERSONThu May 14 1987 16:4512
    Perhaps it would help to keep your head about you when you see
    the little fur-faces if you would close your eyes, take a deep 
    breath (thru your nose) and vividly imagine a soiled litter box.
    You also might use the chant "I don't need another one  . . .  I
    don't need another one . .".  This is what I'm doing since I have
    just one little Abyssinian left and I am determined that I am not
    going to keep her.  It is tough, when you realize that you would
    have to clean the litter box whether or not you keep the kitten,
    and even though it is true that you DON"t need another one, you
    didn't *NEED* the ones you already have, but you've got them anyhow!

590.4What do they look like?BUFFER::HOFFMANWed May 20 1987 20:059
    I'd be interested in knowing if this breeder (LINRO) keeps strictly
    to the Siamese standards, or has some "old fashioned" Siamese. 
    
    Please post any information in this file.
    
    Thanks a bunch!
