About the Siamese Cat
The Siamese is one of the oldest and most recognizable cat breeds, originating from Siam (now Thailand). It is famed for its sleek, svelte body, striking color points (dark extremities against a lighter body), and brilliant blue almond-shaped eyes. This highly vocal, intelligent, and social breed forms strong bonds with its people and is known for its extroverted and sometimes demanding personality.
