Siamese Cats

Siamese Cats, a breed of shorthaired domestic cat, are muscular and agile, with a wedge shaped head, sim legs, and a long, narrow tail. Their slanted blue eyes may be crossed, and they have a range of striking cries. Born partially albino, grayish cream in color, most Siamese develop "points," or darker color, or their tail, muzzle, ears, legs, and feet; red (red point), dark brown (seal point), light brown (chocolate point), blue, gray or lilac with a pink cast (liliac point).


The siamese, one of the most popular breeds of cat in the United States, has blue eyes and color points on its body. The breed standard of the Modern Siamese indicates an elegant, slim, stylish, flexible, and well-muscled body. Its head is triangular shapped, with a thin snout. The eyes are almond shaped and oblique, with large wide based ears positioned more towards the side of the head. This positioning should form a perfect triangle from the tip of the nose to each tip of the ear. It has a long elegant neck, body, and wippy slender tail. The fur is short, glossy, fine, soft, tight, and adhered to the body with no undercoat. The Siamese is characterized by its typical pointed color scheme.
