Adoption Diaries: Two Sets of Roomies
Elyse's Adoption Diary:
This week I am biased and can't help but devote my attention and space to Xavier and Papa, a pair of gorgeous three-year-old Siamese twins. (Yes, I know it's redundant to say a pair of twins. Leave me alone, this is a blog!) So back to the boys. When I first saw them, they were lying together side by side in perfect twin fashion. They took my breath away with their beauty. They each sported a rich, chocolate coat and bright blue eyes.
The atrocity you're hearing in this video is me singing the "We are Siamese" song from Lady and the Tramp. Note the twins' clever escape from my singing. One of them even yelps at the end. That's okay, I don't blame them.
I let them out to roam about the floor, and I was amazed at how sweet they were! They had already won me over with their beauty, so their personalites were a nice bonus. Yeah, shallow, I know. Papa especially was a mushball--he got on his back with his paws in the air and started purring! A cat is a cat is a cat, huh?
Junior wears cute little shoes on his paws to protect his weak hind legs. He's a real sweetheart--we often have him accompany us at events. He loves everyone--adults, children, other dogs--so he's a joy to have around. He was with us at the CBS Early Show on ASPCA Day, and made friends with CBS weatherman Dave Price.
Junior's roomie is another sweetheart, a Dobie called Madison. They are both wonderfully calm and low-energy. I was able to just relax and pet them. We had a grand old time.

Love the kittie! I have a sable sealpoint Siamese that I rescued from a near-accident. Her mother had birthed her under my backyard shed. Our lawn maintenance almost ran over the two-week old Smokey (Mo Jo), but instead, brought her to my door. We nursed her back to health since her mother was nowhere to be found, and although my husband tried to find her a different home, he fell in love with her as strongly as I did.
Our family actually has a history of adopting pets from the ASPCA. We have adopted two dogs, Pepper (an abused Yorkie who passed of old age) and Heidi (a wonderful black lab/English Springer mix, who recently passed of old age). Both dogs were incredibly sweet, intelligent, and very loyal to the family. After providing such love to us, I felt it was only fair that I contribute to the ASPCA so other four-legged babies can find perfect families.
