Disclaimer: Keep in mind that while the traits described generally apply to this breed, each cat is distinct with its own personality and looks. To learn more about a specific kitten, please review their profile information or speak with the adoption specialist for detailed insights.

History and Origins

Pointed cats appear in the Tamra Maew, a centuries-old Thai manuscript of cat poems from the former kingdom of Siam. They reached the West in the late 1800s, were shown at London's Crystal Palace in 1871, and one of the first in America was a gift to First Lady Lucy Hayes in 1878. Modern Siamese cats come in a sleek show type, while TICA recognizes the rounder, old-style type separately as the Thai.

Personality

Siamese are vocal, intelligent and deeply people-oriented, often choosing one favorite person. They follow you around, comment on your day and learn games and tricks quickly. Long hours alone can make them lonely, so many owners adopt two Siamese kittens or pair one with another social cat.

Nutrition and Feeding

A lean, athletic breed does best on a complete, high-protein diet in measured portions. Many Siamese are enthusiastic eaters, so watch weight on their slender frame. Wet food adds moisture, and dental-friendly routines matter because the breed can be prone to gum disease.

Grooming and Care

The short, close-lying coat needs only a weekly brush to stay glossy. Put more effort into teeth: brush several times a week if possible and schedule regular dental checks. Trim nails and check ears as part of the same routine.

Specifics Need

Point coloring comes from a temperature-sensitive gene, so kittens are born nearly white and darken on cooler body parts, and coats may deepen in colder New York homes. Ask breeders about DNA testing for progressive retinal atrophy (PRA), an inherited cause of vision loss in the breed. Cats entering New York from another state need a veterinary health certificate issued within 30 days, which your adoption specialist arranges.

Need to Know

• Expect a talkative cat that wants daily interaction.

• Kittens are born pale; point color develops over months.

• Cooler homes can make the body coat darken with age.

• Prioritize dental care with regular brushing and checkups.

• Ask about PRA DNA testing in the parents.

• New York requires a health certificate for cats arriving from other states.

• Two social cats are often happier than one alone.

FAQs

How long do Siamese cats live?
TICA lists Siamese life expectancy at 10+ years, and many live well beyond that. Genetics, dental health, preventive vet care and an indoor lifestyle all play a role.

Are they very loud?
They are among the most vocal breeds and use a wide range of sounds. If you want a quiet cat, consider a calmer breed.

Do Siamese do well with kids?
Many are playful and tolerant with respectful children. Their social nature suits busy family homes.

Why do the points get darker as kittens grow?
The enzyme behind point coloring works only in cooler areas of the body, so ears, face, paws and tail darken first. Body color can deepen with age and in cooler homes.

What is the difference between Siamese and Thai cats?
The show Siamese is slim with a wedge-shaped head. The Thai keeps the rounder, old-style look and is recognized separately by TICA.

Adopting our new kitten from Purebred Kitties was a wonderful experience. The process was smooth and clear, leaving no room for confusion. Alona's kindness and genuine care shone through as she promptly answered all my questions. Thanks to the whole team, our new furry family member is now home and already cherished beyond words!

Purebredkitties has been absolutely wonderful. They made everything so easy and stress-free. Adoption specialist Kim A was fantastic, always going the extra mile to help me. She even responded to my email at 3 am her time! 😊 This whole experience has been truly heartwarming and rewarding.

Our experience with Purebredkitties was wonderful! Communication was great, and we even got to FaceTime with our kitten before bringing her home. She was exactly as we expected and is already doing great with our family after just two days. One small note is that pedigree papers weren't included and cost extra, which was a bit pricey since she arrived spayed. Overall, even though it was expensive, it was worth it. The quality and size of our kitten are amazing!

The whole experience of adopting a pet with this fantastic team has been nothing short of wonderful. Now, I have the joy of being a devoted pet mom to a gorgeous kitten I named Princess. I'm already looking forward to adopting another fur baby with Maria's help in the future. I'm absolutely thrilled and can't thank you all enough!

Proud mom of four Sphynx kitties! I adopted all of my adorable feline friends from Maria at purebredkitties.com, and I couldn’t be happier. Each one is a treasure, and working with Maria has been an absolute delight!

The whole journey to bring our fluffy bundle of joy home was fantastic. Maria is incredibly kind and always ready to answer all our questions. I really appreciate how seriously they take the health of the cats. Our kitten arrived with a minor case of the sniffles, likely from the airport travel, but it was easily and quickly resolved. Plus, the video call we had to meet our little guy beforehand was a wonderful way to get a glimpse of his personality and feel confident in our decision. I'm definitely recommending Purebred Kitties to all my friends who are looking to get their own Maine Coon.

I recently welcomed my second Sphynx from Purebred Kitties, and just like my first experience, everything went perfectly. This time around was just as smooth and delightful. I adore both of my cats—they're healthy, have amazing personalities, and are absolutely precious.
