A Siamese Sat by the Green Door and Waited for Her People

AI imagesiamese catfront doorwreath

She sits very straight on the doormat, front paws together, blue eyes aimed at the camera, as though she is waiting for the person with the key. A seal point Siamese stands guard in front of a dark green door with glass panes and a thick wreath tied with a ribbon. A canvas bag, a pair of sneakers, and a coat on a hook crowd the porch, and warm light glows inside. Her cream fur is smooth, her face, ears, and tail are deep brown, and she looks like someone who has been waiting patiently, and perhaps not so patiently.

Siamese cats are intelligent and vocal, and many will tell their people exactly what they think, often in a surprisingly loud voice. They tend to be strongly attached to their families and dislike being left alone, so a Siamese at a door is usually waiting for company. Doorways can be risky for any cat, because a quick dash outside may lead to getting lost, so it helps to keep a microchip updated and the door closed when guests arrive. A holiday wreath is also best placed out of reach, as some greenery can upset a cat's stomach if chewed.

For now she has taken up her post, a small queen at a very festive entrance. Whoever is on the other side of that door will receive a long, clear greeting.
