All over the world, there are beautiful cats that find their way to the shelter against their will. It’s never a cat’s fault when they’re surrendered, and as we know all too well, not all cats will find their happy ending. For two stunning Seal Point Siamese cats from Sea Point, Western Cape, South Africa, their story just goes to show you that it is in fact possible to find a purebred cat at a shelter. So, if you ever have your heart set on a particular breed but want to give back by adopting a cat, just contact your local shelter or breed-specific rescue because you just might get lucky!
How did Blue and Ozzy come into your life?
I rescued Blue from the Cape of Good Hope SPCA in February 2019.
He was surrendered at 5 months for having snuffles. He had JUST come out of isolation when I saw him and literally fell in love with him. He’s named for the spectacular colour of his eyes.
I thought he was a bit sad and lonely about 9 months later when I started looking for another rescue siamese which is very hard to find here.
Capetonians Against Animal Abuse does amazing work with cats and kittens and I got pics of Ozzy. I collected him in December of 2019. He’s called Ozzy as he’s a wild child. He’s so cross-eyed it’s a miracle he can see straight!
Baby Ozzy
How do they get along with one another?
They kind of get along. Not the type of friends I hoped they’d be and either one takes turns to bully the other playfully. Both are pretty jealous too but generally, not a lot of fur flies.
How would you describe each of their personalities?
Blue’s personality is definitely a typical cat. He’s stately and above everyone. He will love everyone but me. He’s calmer and more restrained and loves to be the King.
Ozzy is a total furry love bug. Adores food and cuddles. Loves attention and playing and will jump around in wild abandon without worrying about how he looks. He’s also not very…. Clever.
