Hello,
Our little guy is doing great. He's getting big fast and is now friends with our dogs. I can't get over how handsome he is and he loves people. He is a talker. When you walk in a room he's in, he says "meow" and I'll say "what" in a high friendly voice and he says "meow." Love him. We still haven't picked out a name for him. We're thinking Brady or Mokie. Any suggestions? I did get his registration papers today. I don't think I'll send away for them, I won't need them. The pictures I've attached were taken a week ago. I'll send some more as he grows. Take care.
Sincerely,
Ginger
It's been a year since she was born and our last 10 months have been much better with her in our family. She is an absolute sweetheart and a bundle of laughs. Thanks again.

My fiance, Jason, and I found Jo Ann through a web search for Siamese cat breeders. When we found Jo Ann, we had no idea how much joy she would bring to our lives. Once we officially had a little kitten reserved for us, we made a trip to Harleysville to meet Jo Ann and the little kitten. Jo Ann welcomed us into her home and invited us up stairs to finally meet our little girl, Mali. Mali was only 1 month old when we first met her, but she immediately stole my heart! The next 4 weeks seemed to drag by, but finally the weekend of Halloween, Jo Ann informed us we could pick her up.
Once we arrived, Jo Ann brought Mali down from up stairs and sat with us for a few hours going over how to care for our little baby. She was SO knowledgeable and answered every question Jason and I had for her, which helped us feel more comfortable about caring for a new kitten. After an hour and half drive we finally were home. Once we let Mali out of the carrier, she hid under our microwave stand. For hours she laid under there, I sent Jo Ann an email and she promptly responded reassuring me that it would take time for the little girl to get used to her new home.
It was not long after we brought Mali home that we decided she needed a little friend to keep her company while we went to work. Our local ASPCA had a litter of Siamese kittens, but both Jason and I decided it was better to contact Jo Ann. We knew her kittens were well taken care of and that if we needed anything she would be there for us. When Mali was 4 months old we brought Laila home. Again our experience with Jo Ann was nothing but fabulous. She again sat down with us to go over everything about bringing a new baby home. This time we also discussed how to go about introducing Laila to her big sister Mali. Once again, she showed off her wealth of knowledge and gave us a lot of good advice.
When we got Laila home, Mali was not very friendly. The girls did NOT get along for a few days and Laila came down with a little cold. We were in contact with Jo Ann almost every day. She informed Jason and I of what to look out for with a sick kitten, she also offered to send us some medicine. Knowing we had Jo Ann to turn to was comforting for us.
Jason and I absolutely love our little girls. Mali and Laila are both happy and healthy and love to snuggle and play. Our experience with Jo Ann has been nothing but exceptional. We could not ask for a better breeder! I am so happy and feel very lucky to have found her. She deeply cares about what she does and takes exceptional care of all her animals. She has quickly become a very good friend we are so glad to have made!
I am 100% sure you will love your little babies. Just remember Jo Ann will always be there if you have any question or concerns.
Best of Luck with everything!
Amanda and Jason
Winnie is such a happy little soul! She just races around full speed playing until she crashes asleep.
She brings out the “big kids” playful side as well, but no way can they keep up with her, so they eventually go into side-by-side loaf positions and just stare and let her entertain them.
She and Corvey are kindred spirits and already best buds.
She is bringing us absolute joy! Thank you for this dear little imp!!

Dear Mama Jo Ann,
Thank you for taking care of me during my stay with you while I grew in my Cat Mommy's belly and sending me to my new humans. Your warm home and heart as I grew, and your support to my new human Mommy helped me settle in nicely to my new home. My new humans give me so much love and affection, and I give it right back!
I also went to the vet, where I made lots of friends who fawned over me. The doctor said I am a healthy and sweet boy. His report referred to me as "unremarkable", however, which I took offense, because I am indeed remarkable. Mommy then had to explain that it was just fancy medical talk for healthy, so there's that.
I am chasing little fishies and ribbons, and kicking my new mini soccer ball better than David Beckham. This weekend will be my big adventure, where I will I leave my bedroom and start to explore my entire house. It's gonna be a bit scary, but I got this!

We got our Mocha (chocolate point) and Thai (blue point, brothers from the same litter) from Jo Ann after our beloved Cocoa passed away. Jo Ann was so upset at Cocoa's passing that she immediately reserved them for us. Mocha and Thai are the loves of our life. They take the place of the grandchildren that we don't have. They have entirely different personalities but get along really well, just as Jo Ann predicted. We usually find them as one big ball of fur asleep with one another. Jo Ann is not only a great breeder but also has become a friend. She really appreciates hearing about Mocha and Thai's adventures. They walk on a leash (we never let them out without it), are quite vocal, and incredibly smart. They are so cute and our vet says "Hello, handsome" whenever she sees them. They love people and have been members of the family since we brought them home on Halloween of 2010.
This summer, we brought Mocha and Thai back to see Jo Ann. She was really happy to see them now that they are grown. We always send her stories and pictures and she does likewise. It's great that she still takes an interest in her adopted kitties. If you are interested in Siamese, you can't find a better breeder than Jo Ann. Attached are pictures of Mocha and Thai their first Christmas and now that they are two years old.

My husband and I have had nine Siamese kittens during our 44 years of marriage. (The nine include the two we have now.) They have all lived to be quite old. When our last one passed away four years ago at the age of 19, we wanted to get two Siamese kittens from the same litter. After attending several cat shows and visiting many breeders of which we were not satified, my husband saw Jo Ann's ad in the paper, and we called and made an appointment. Harleysville was NOT around the corner from us, as we live in Delran, NJ. However, it was well worth the trip!! We have the two best cats we have ever owned! They are blood brother and sister and were 4 years old this past February. We named them Mini and Cooper, as we had just purchased a Mini Cooper convertible two weeks before we acquired the kittens. Throughout the years, they have become an integral part of our family.
Mini and Cooper are at the top of the list for their friendliness, devotion, and enjoyment. They play and bond together continuously and enjoy being in our company as well as others. They are just so people friendly.They love being entertained and are quite the entertainers when people come to visit! They have to be the center of attention! Each has its own unique personality and character, yet they continue to be "Best Buds". You very rarely see the one without the other. They are highly intelligent, inquisitive, talkative, lovable, and so playful. ( the best fetchers ever)
We attribute all of the above to JoAnn and the way she has raised them as babies. They are, without a doubt, the best cats we have ever had. Some of our friends, who are not cat lovers, say they have never seen such personable felines. Therefore, I would most highly recommend Jo Ann's Siamese kittens without any reservation. In my opinion, her kittens are the purr..fect pet anyone could ever have.
Sincerely,
Mabel
Hi, JoAnn. We are the couple from Baltimore who adopted the male kitten from you on the evening of January 28. We thought you might like to see a picture of him at 5 months old. His name is Jake. Officially, he is Joroby Smoogs Jacob, but we call him Jake.
He is wonderful, VERY Siamese. He is so loving and so playful and talks to us all the time. We love him dearly and think he is perfect. He just had a check-up and rabies vaccine last week and got a clean bill of health. He'll be neutered the end of this month.
He loves to attack his older "brothers." He's learned who likes to do what and plays differently with each of our other cats. With Zachary, he wrestles and sometimes cuddles. With Simon, Jake jumps on him, plays chase, and is very rough and tumble. They are very patient with him when he is relentless in his attacks. Jake knows that our female cat (a flamepoint Siamese mix, former feral) is a bit more territorial and will sometimes play chase with him but touching is against her rules. It's amazing how he adapts to each cat.
Do you have any pictures you could e-mail us of Jake's parents? We would love it if you could.
Thanks for raising such a wonderful kitten. He's a treasure.
These two have truly been a surprise for us! Besides being a couple of the most beautiful and photogenic cats I've ever had, they've also managed to change the minds of many NON-cat lovers! Their temperament is great and the amount of love and affection they give are one of kind. I am so happy to have been surprised with Carter in early 2012 and then to expand to Puma later that year. Jo Ann has managed to investing a great litter and she is not only a great resource to have when you have questions, but she's also a friend!... I'm very proud that she has a site to showcase these wonderful felines. They are truly one of a kind and will make you reconsider just who is "man's best friend". I love having them and I would encourage anyone who's considering getting 1, to get 2... It made all the difference in the world and allows them to get out some of the extra energy I don't always have when I get off work (not to mention the companionship they have together while I am at work).
Thank you Jo Ann for making our home even brighter!
Jose and Will
Hi Jo Ann,
Just wanted to give you an update on our new (now named!) lilac baby. We've settled on the name Lulu. We couldn't be happier with her.
From day one, she has fit beautifully into our family. There seemed to be hardly any adjustment period for her. She was immediately affectionate and seemed comfortable in her new home. By the second day, she found a favorite sunny place by the patio door to take her nap.
She always wants us to pick her up and then she'll purr and purr and purr and then rub her nose on ours. When she's not hangiong out with us, she loves to follow her "big brother", Cody around the house. To his dismay, she thinks his tail is the greatest thing since sliced bread. They love to play and chase each other around the house. She's already fetching her toys and dropping them at our ankles so we'll toss them over and over. She loves to go to her toy box and over the course of the day manages to spread her toys all over the house. One of her favorite games is to chase the long rainbow sparkler stick--she's getting better at chasing now that she is faster and more coordinated. She's a great little soccer player--we can hear the bell inside the ball as she scoots it around the kitchen floor over and over.
Today she is three ;months old and she now weighs 2.5 lb. We wish she'd stay this size forever! Lulu has brought a great deal of joy and laughter to our home. We can't thank you enough for our new little Lulu as well as our now three year old little boy Cody.
Gratefully yours,
Nancy and Dick Vreeland
Hi Jo Ann,
I wanted people to know something amazing about the cat's you breed. I have a bad history of migraines that make me terribly ill. When I get sick, my beautiful boy Lapis always knows. He gives special care to walk around me very gently and touches my face with his paw. He crawls under the covers and will not leave my side for the time that I'm sick. He will even follow me to the bathroom and back. What an amazing little love bug. I adore him and am so grateful to have his comfort when I am sick. He is irreplaceable and my best buddy. Thank you a million times for him Jo Ann!
Sincerely,
Karey
