Our 2 year old Sealpoint Siamese cat also lost his brother three weeks ago. He has been more vocal than before, now sleeps on my bed, also bored, as they used to play around together all day and slept together. I am home all day and spend a lot of time with him, we brush him regularly and keep a close eye on him. The first two days after the accident he threw up his food, but since then is eating normally. We have been thinking about trying to get another cat from the same parents, but not sure if that would overcome his grief or that they would get on together; it may never be the same. Tonight he walked over to the TV when an ad came on with a man holding a cat that looked very similar to his brother - he sat there for ages just watching. It's so sad.

Siamese in mourning by: Kimberly
My siamese lost his brother 3 weeks ago, and I thought about getting another cat too. I think giving him lots of love has proven most helpful. He sleeps with me, and lounges alot, but does play too. I am nervous about getting another cat right now, so will just see how he takes to being my only cat. Good luck

I work from home also. by: angelina diantonio
It helps that you work from home.He is in mourning and needs lots of comforting.Just give him love and affection.If you want to introduce another cat or kitten you could think about introducing them first.Check your local Humaine Societies or Siamese Rescues.Tons of cats and kittens need good homes.He may not like another cat.I would test the waters first.Keep us posted.
