Funny Ears


So, is this a Siamese thing or just a Solomon thing??..
His ears are incredibly mobile and expressive. He can put them down sideways so he resembles a bat..or even do one up, one down like that. When I first got him I thought it was due to ear mites but that was cured long ago and he still does it to this day..it's so weird!!

Re: Funny Ears


I don't recall my Siamese boy ever doing anything especially odd or different ear-wise .... maybe a Solly thing?!

Kizzy's ears move in different directions, but I've not seen them go up and down! Sounds like a Solly thing!!!

Re: Funny Ears


haha okay maybe he is just a strange bird (which is really not that surprising)
will try to get a pic next time he makes himself look like a bat
he does it when he's not pleased (but not back like a regular cat..horizontally!!)
