They do. They are definitely a little family. There are no real fights, just occasional swats and hisses. I worry over them too much when something is out of synch. I always want them to get along better and worry if everyone is getting all the love they need. And it varies--they change over time and go through phases, so there's no telling how they will be relating to each other next year.
Saki needs to own me more than Moo and Tuxie do and is very much like my familiar. While Moo chose me and worked hard to make me her human when still stray, Tuxie became very much Saki's cat and still wants to be, but is more becoming mine, or accepting me as his main affection source as Saki keeps her distance from him.
In my experience, siameses behave almost like a different species from other American domestic cats. It seems to me that I would need to acquire another human before having a two siamese household, and that each needs their own human, but that may not be true of all siameses. You've lived in a 4 siamese to 3 human household though--how did that go? Were their rivalries rough for them? I grew up in my family of 4 in a one siamese household twice in a row, then we got brother and sister siamese kittens, and then they died and my mom and brother got a pair of siamese sisters.
And yeah, there is no telling about the grown mother cat you got and how her relationship with her sons might have evolved. Every cat relationship is different, it seems, and can change when you least expect it. How are Elsa and Charles getting on?
