When it comes to the experience of raising a cat, I would unhesitatingly recommend Siamese cats to those who are about to have their first feline friend. It has been an incredibly warm and wonderful journey with my Siamese cat, Wangwang.
My first encounter with Wangwang, a tiger – striped Siamese, was truly serendipitous. I chose a Siamese because I had heard that they are intelligent and extremely clingy. And as it turns out, this choice couldn’t have been more perfect. Wangwang has been a source of endless healing and cuteness in my life.
Wangwang joined our family when he was around three months old. I found him on Xianyu. The moment I saw the seller’s video of this little furball, I was smitten. In the video, when someone scratched him, he purred contentedly. Without a second thought, we reserved him right away. Even though we were traveling in Europe at that time, we just knew he was the one for us. It really shows that there’s a special kind of connection, a fate, when it comes to adopting a pet.
As Wangwang grew up, his intelligence became more and more evident. He learned how to shake hands, responding promptly whenever we held out our hands to him. His inquisitive nature is also quite endearing. He’s always exploring every nook and cranny of the house. Whenever we bring something new home, he’s the first one to check it out. There have been countless times when he and our other cat, Xiaogu, have climbed onto the computer, completely fascinated by the screen. Their curiosity knows no bounds.
One of the most touching things about Wangwang is his role in our family. Whenever my husband and I have an argument, he seems to sense the tension in the air. He’ll come running over, meowing loudly, trying to get our attention. Sometimes he’ll even position himself between us, as if trying to separate us and stop the quarrel. It’s as if he’s saying, “Stop fighting, you two!” At night, he loves to sleep close to us. Many a time, I’ve woken up to find him licking my face gently, as if to show his love and affection.
Now that Wangwang is ten months old, he’s still as adorable as ever. His character is truly remarkable. His eyes are like two deep pools, filled with the brightness of the stars and the vastness of the ocean. There was a funny incident when our second cat, Xiaogu, who was younger, tried to “suckle” from Wangwang.just like many cats as they get a bit older, Wangwang has also started to put on some weight. But even with his slightly plump figure, he’s still irresistibly cute.
During the days of isolation, Xiaogu immediately became attached to Wangwang. They would play together, chase each other around the house, and even sleep side by side. It was heartwarming to see the bond between them grow stronger.
In conclusion, raising Wangwang has been more than just having a pet. He has become an integral part of our family, bringing so much love, laughter, and warmth. Every day with him is a new adventure, filled with his antics and affectionate gestures. I’m truly grateful that he came into my life, and I hope that more people can experience the joy of raising a Siamese cat like Wangwang. The memories we’ve created together are priceless, and I look forward to many more wonderful years with this lovely feline friend.
