6. She looks like she owns the place already.

So pretty. She looks like a blue point Siamese. How blue are her eyes? We have a brother-sister pair of Meezers. The boy is a blue point, and his sister is a seal point. He face, ears and cute little nose are such a dark shade of brown that she almost looks like those parts of her have been cut from black velvet. Her eyes are quite blue. Her brother's coloring is the same as Sugar's, and his eyes are much paler.

If they had been painted by famous artists, the sister would have been done by Van Gogh, and the brother by Monet.

Here is some interesting information on Siamese coloring:

Another interesting cat fact. When a female cat is in heat, she does not ovulate until the act of mating. If a female mates with more than one male, she will produce a litter of kittens who have different fathers, hence the variety of coat patterns and colors amongst kittens in the same litter.
