I have 2 and they could not be more different. One is calm, lover type. Other is spastic and a hunter type. It is funny to watch the calm one when the spastic one wants to play. Love them both. They are part of the family. The set before this I had for 20+ years. When they realized my wife was pregnant they became very protective of her, getting between her and any stranger. The younger one would sleep at the base of the crib after my daughter was born. If my daughter cried she would come and get us. It was quite hard on her when we did the, "okay you need to go to sleep and crying does not help bit." I miss them to this day.
- arethuza 9y agoOur two Burmese cats also have very different personalities even though they are from the same litter and have experienced exactly the same environment. Their "official" names are quite descriptive: Purfidelis Babe Magnet Purfidelis Tasmanian Devil [NB We just call them Cookie and Brownie].

- arethuza 9y agoFYI - I didn't come up with the names, they are what the breeder, a lady, thought was appropriate!
- le-mark 9y agoThis article is very interesting, I didn't realize that there was evidence that cat's have not been domesticated. I had always assumed they were, and often puzzled at the difference in behavior between them and other domesticated animals. The fact that cats aren't considered to domesticated explains a lot! I also had a long time cat companion, after 11 years we had to have my cat put down (late stage inflammatory bowel disease). It was the hardest thing I ever had to do.
