LPT41 Posted February 28, 2010 Report Posted February 28, 2010 Friends T Rex my class mate lives in Whaletown. Hey beautiful cats!
DennisLinkletter Posted March 1, 2010 Report Posted March 1, 2010 Siamese cats.. My significant other is from Thailand.. So I've seen a lot of Siamese cats but those are amazing.. Are their eyes that blue in person? Absolutely beautiful..
T Rex Posted March 1, 2010 Author Report Posted March 1, 2010 Thank you Dennis, yes their eyes are amazing however in order to really appreciate the blue color, you need to photograph them in the sunlight so that the iris is at its' smallest. They now also have tattoos in their right ear, identifying them as well as making them members of the "Van Isle Boyz"........ I am the only other member..... I will be putting on a 10 lb. Pork Butt in a few hours and look forward to posting some pictures of the cook tomorrow. T Rex
T Rex Posted March 1, 2010 Author Report Posted March 1, 2010 Oooooooops, I think I meant "pupil" and not " iris"...... My bad..... T Rex
bryan Posted March 1, 2010 Report Posted March 1, 2010 They now also have tattoos in their right ear, identifying them as well as making them members of the "Van Isle Boyz"........ I am the only other member..... Does that mean there is a tattoo in your ear?
Loquitur Posted March 1, 2010 Report Posted March 1, 2010 They are gorgeous, T-Rex!! Are they best buddies? My guy is a Ragdoll - different bone structure, as you can see in this larger picture, but the same striking coloring. I also had his brother but he died of a heart attack when he was 14 months old. Unfortunately, heart problems are an issue with the breed. White coloring in a Ragdoll is very desirable but I love the pure Siamese look.
T Rex Posted March 1, 2010 Author Report Posted March 1, 2010 Hi Susan, sorry for your loss. Over the 32 years that I have been married to Mrs. T Rex, we have had a Russian Blue, a Havana Brown and now two Siamese brothers. We were somewhat hesitant at getting two brothers however, we couldn't decide when we were at the Breeders which one to choose, so we took a chance and got them both.... Both are males and we are very pleased that they get along fabulously and are best buds. Mrs. T Rex also has a couple of horses to round off the family........... This is a picture of the tattoos they have in their right ear which was done in blue to match their eyes. Unfortunately this shot was taken later in the day when their pupils are larger so their beautiful blue eyes are not very visible. T Rex
Firemonkey Posted March 2, 2010 Report Posted March 2, 2010 I thought that the animal ear tatoos were done with a press type device, where you load the type, ink it, then squeeze it on the ear flap? But those tattoos look handwritten, which begs the question; "Who gets to hold the angry cat with a tattoo gun in his ear?!"
T Rex Posted March 2, 2010 Author Report Posted March 2, 2010 Hi FM, the tattoo says Van Isle Boyz and a registration number to track the owner. They were sleeping as we had it done when they were being neutered and under anesthesia........ T Rex
