Thanks Jerry, we thought of an Ocicat after our Siamese Seal Point (Julchen) died, the short list was down to one of them, a Turkish Van, a BSH Silver Tabby or a Burmese - but then we saw some Somalis (Posy is a Sorrel Somali, (her real name is Amalia of Magic Fellow - silly!!) at a local cat show and it was love at first sight - we came home with two of them. Lucy's life was short but full of whatever she could beg from the fridge (she got ripped apart in her own garden by two straying Dobermann Pinschers 6 years ago), and Posy is still going strong at the already venerable age of nearly 10..
