Eloise
Eloise is an 11 week old Siamese tabby cross. She is curious about everything, enjoys attacking my toes and sitting in my lap when I’m on the computer. She has our two dogs (a lab and a beagle) at her beck and call, and loves to sleep in strange places, like my suitcase.
Eloise, what a sweety! Am I the first poster? Yeah
What an ADORABLE face with suh beautiful blue eyes! I just love her coloring, as well. I bet my little Suger (who’s currently “hunting” birdies at te sliding glass door) would love to play with your baby!
Enjoy!
Eloise appears willing and able to take on the whole world, if need be. If ever determination can be seen on a face, it sure is on hers!
What a little sweetheart! She has the most curious eyes! My cat sits on my lap when I’m at the computer too!! It’s all about HER, whenever SHE wants attention, not when I feel like giving it!!
What’s this thing? Can I eat it? FUZZ
What a sweet little kitty! She looks a lot like a stray that lives near my house, whom I named ‘Smokey’.
I had a cat that looked like Eloise when I was in high school. She was very protective of her people. If strangers came to our home, and she thought they shouldn’t be trusted she would hiss at them, and sometimes bite them. It must have been the siamese in her.
u-can-hear-me-coming FUZZ
el is rockin’ that bell!
Pretty kitty!!!
Here she is, doing the Robert DeNiro, “You talking to me?” routine from Raging Bull.
(Actually, it was Taxi Driver. Sorry, Eloise.)
The fierce look on Elosie’s face cracks me up. The comment by Tom M says it all.
You have a real cutie there…Take good care of her!
she looks SASSY! in a beautiful way, of course.
‘Not that close, Mr. DeMille!’ fuzz.
Your Eloise looks like my Samson and Delilah,both Lynxpoint siamese. They are more “doglike”.They used to play fetch w/ me bringing me little plastic thingies for hours.They’re lap kitties more now.
I too have a lynx point puppy-kitty that plays fetch!! Must be genetic!!
Eloise is such a beauty!! I have a soft spot in my heart for those blue-eyed lynx points!! Besides that, if you drop the E’s in her name she’d be Lois!!
Wow! I am in love…..again. She is absolutely beautiful girl with the most expressive eyes. A little doll, I wish she was mine.
Queen Eloise, if you please FUZZ.
This blue eyes beauty is queen of all she surveys.
Keep warm everyone. The coming cold front is really cold! Snuggle up those kits!!
Eloise–born to snuggle!
this is more of a AND your point is look
25!? Do you ever call one fuzzbutt by another fuzzbutts name?
I only have three and I do that.
I only have two and I do that. Sometimes I call them by my husband’s name!
no they are all unque lol and act accordinly …….
She’s precious!!! I love her coloring and blue eyes!
wow, look at those eyes! She looks like a curious little kitty, indeed. Watch out, world, here comes Eloise!
Eloise is so beautiful! I’m a sucker for those blue eyes. If she needs a lap to sit in, be my guest Eloise. Hugs & kisses to you Eloise.
Pretty girl.. Love the blue eyes and candy pink nose!
What a beauty!! She looks like a kitty that I had a long time ago named Little Bit.
Those blue eyes and pink collar, with the little dark tail peeking out, makes for a sweet adorable kitty. What a treasure.
Aww… what cool coloring! I’d love to see what she looks like as she gets older. It seems (with Siamese at least) that their coloring changes subtly as they get older. The blue eyes too!! *melt* Wish they stayed blue…. do they ever?
Yes, muscicchick, Siamese cats eyes stay blue as they get older. It is one of their traits as a Siamese.
Sorry about the typo. I mistyped your name.
Is that a lion on wavelit? http://www.wavelit.com/index.asp?ch=Wildlife&sh=africam
Looks like two lions.
Teresa may I be so bold as to ask where is LO?
Hi Susan, LO is Los Osos, CA. It’s a small town on California’s Central Coast. Los Osos means ‘the bears’ in Spanish.
Thanks for the info. Then my Los Osos beat the Seahawks yesterday! Sorry Seattle but I have been a Bears fan thru thick and thin.
It ended up being three BIG kitties.
I love the pink collar! She’s adorable!
Eloise does look like a lynx point, I have had 2 in my life time and a cat show judge explained about how the markings change with age and body temp due to the amount of body fat, less body fat lighter the markings more body fat darker the markings is the bottom line. This is my first posting I have been visiting the site for a while and enjoy all the coments and stories and of course the pic ( I have submitted a pic waiting to if it shows up)
Welcome Athena!
Welcome to our group Athena where are you from?
Nebraska, lincoln area live in the country have horses dogs and of course cats. My pet cats are all house cats but there are always ones showing up in the barn, the ones I can catch get shots and “fixed”
Thanks for the info I have a friend and her and her family were all from Oxford, NE. I was telling Nathan that I went to one of the smaller coed Catholic schools in Chicago he said how many kids when I told him 1,300 he laughed. Oxford only has 900 people and his HS graduating class was 27! I didn’t see a horse face to face till I was 22 and was shocked that they have hair ALL over their bodies. In the movies their coats are so shinney I thought it was just skin with the manes and tail. He has gotten a big laugh out of that one. Same way with cows my shoes and wallet are hairy how is a dumb city girl suppose to know these things. Anyway welcome aboard.
Typo that was supposed to be aren’t hairy.
I love those eyes!
Eloise the lovely siamese cross
Moved right in and said

Tip o’ the hat

‘Cuz embarassed I am.
You are such a treasure.
I missed you. Love your “kitty witties”
what a beautiful little girl! she’s so cute..she reminds me of my sister’s kitty.
JCL
She is indeed a beautiful kitten - and yes, she does appear curious, too!
“Y’all take care, and don’t fur-get to clean your paws before dinner.”
Eloise! A beautiful name for a beautiful girl. She has marvellous colors. Those big blue eyes are exceptionally beautiful. And she appears to be very brave.
“You wanna piece of me??? ‘Cuz I know where your toes live…” FUZZ
Lynx points are beautiful.
The Cat Who Needed a Night Light
By Susan McCullough
On a warm August day, a dainty little cat named Dolores was receiving a special award: the American Humane Association’s William O. Stillman award for bravery. The association gives the award to people who risk their lives to save animals from danger, and to animals who face down danger to save the lives of people. Either way, the winners are heroes, whether they’re take-charge, fearless sorts of people, or extroverted, devoted pets like Dolores.
Dolores hadn’t always been an extrovert. And she hadn’t seemed very devoted to anyone, either. In fact, she’d been what most people call the quiet type. When she first came to live with her owner, Kyle, Dolores rarely had anything to say. And most of the time, she didn’t like being touched.
Kyle didn’t know why Dolores was so standoffish. And he didn’t understand something else about her: why she always became upset whenever the lights were turned out. But Kyle didn’t care. Something about the cat’s quiet, unassuming manner appealed to him. So, at night, he just left all the lights on in the apartment where he and Dolores lived, even when it was time to go to sleep. And if Dolores wanted to keep her distance - well, he could respect that. Maybe, if he was patient, Dolores would someday decide to come to him, to talk to him, to be friends.
So for the next year, Kyle loved Dolores for exactly who she was. He let her keep her distance, and he didn’t ask for more than she could give.
Then, one May evening, everything changed. The night started like any other. And, at evening’s end, Kyle checked - as usual - to make sure all the lights in his apartment were on. Then, he went to sleep.
Sometime later he woke with a start. Something was jumping on his head! Paws were scratching his face! And, when he opened his eyes, his apartment was no longer brightly lit; instead it was filled with black smoke. But he could see who was doing the jumping and scratching: Dolores.
The little cat was all Kyle could see. But she was enough.
Together, the two made their way to the only available exit from the apartment - the back door. Kyle felt his way along the walls. At the same time, he felt for Dolores with his feet and followed her. Finally, the pair reached the back door. Kyle pulled on the knob to open the door, only to have the knob fall off into his hand. The door remained firmly shut.
Making his way to the door had taken every bit of strength and oxygen Kyle had, and he collapsed to the floor. But, once again, he felt those insistent paws scratching his face. Kyle mustered his last bit of strength to hurl himself against the door, break it down and run outside to fresh air and safety. Once there, he looked around for the cat who’d saved his life.
She wasn’t there.
With sickening clarity, Kyle realized that Dolores was still inside the apartment. He ran to one of the firefighters.
“My cat’s still inside my apartment!” he exclaimed. “Can you find her?”
The firefighter promised to try.
Now all Kyle could do was wait. He knew Dolores’s chances weren’t good, but still - maybe, just maybe, she would be found alive.
An hour or so later, the firefighters brought the blaze under control. And one firefighter brought Kyle a bundle wrapped in a towel. Kyle held his breath. Inside the bundle was Dolores - eyes seared shut, hair singed, but alive.
The firefighter explained that Dolores had collapsed just inside the door and that a fireman had stumbled on her when he entered the apartment. After removing her from the apartment, paramedics gave the cat CPR and oxygen before bringing her to Kyle.
The fire changed Kyle’s life dramatically. He’d lost all his clothes, furniture and other possessions, and had to go live with his mother for a while. His cat had changed, too.
The once-quiet Dolores was now a talker who meowed and purred almost constantly. Even more surprising was her new desire to be touched and cuddled - preferably while she was lying on Kyle’s lap.
Now, just four months later, Dolores was being recognized for her bravery. But Kyle knew he’d gotten a bigger prize. He’d never asked for more than Dolores could give - and then found she was willing to give him everything she had.
Dolores is a hero. Thanks Rainingwolf for sharing this wonderful story.
Beautiful story… my cat Pikachu also saved me from a fire in my house and I am eternally grateful Hooray for Dolores
Thanks Rainingwolf, “sniff, sniff” someone pass me the tissues, I love a good (but sad) story with a happy ending….
Great story Rainingwolf. So happy for Dolores and Kyle, that they got out. She is special.
What a wonderful story thank you so much for sharing it with us. Cats can be man’s best friend too!
And I know people who thing that animals don’t have feelings or really care about us the way we care about them.
I feel sorry for them because they will never know the kind of love that these two have for each other
Great story, Rainingwolf, thank you for posting it here…I love happy endings!
Thank you for the awesome story.
i just have to say that that is one of the cutest faces i’ve ever seen.
…..yet another great collar FUZz…………………
Very cute with such intense eyes! I can feel her practising kitty “Dominate” right through the computer monitor.
ooooh, such a sweet baby, I am already in love
She is soooooo cute!Love the collar!!:)
What a cute little meezerese! I had two female siamese when I was a teenager…Chee-Chee and Chee-Choy. They were quite vocal and great companions…
Awww she’s now the only other cat I’ve heard of called Eloise other than my sister’s cat..those blue eyes and the little pink bell. Adorable
She looks like my Ferrule! Oh can she please come play? I know they would have a great time.
I’ve been looking at TDK since my 14 yr. old Kali died of complications with diabetes and asthma in September. Still don’t have it in me to get a new kitty but thinking about it a lot. Crying now just thinking about her. Anyway, folks were mentioning the crazy vet bills yesterday but when I took Kali to her vet when she fell very ill, he kept her for a day but barely charged me since he knew she had to go to a special hospital which was expensive and he knew I was worried about the cost. I think some vets will try to work with you if they can.
Eileen-Sorry to hear about the loss of your precious Kali. We don’t ever get over our pets when they pass. One day soon the right kit will come into your life. You are right about vet’s helping out when they can with the expenses. Just have to ask. Many purrs to you.
Remember Eileen… you don’t choose cats… they choose you
**hugs for your loss**

I think your kitten is a Lynx Point Siamese… My beautiful man Oliver is one, and he looked just like Eloise when he was a kitten! They are so fun and quirky!
