Siamese Pet Insurance
Siamese are very active, and dislike being left alone. Often referred to as "talkers", they will converse with you in a loud and sometimes harsh voice. Extremely intelligent and elegant, they insist on taking an active part in their owner's lives and they make excellent company for those wanting a loving, lively and entertaining companion. Their short coats have a low tendency to shed, and their life expectancy is 8-12 yrs.
