The Siamese cat, a breed from the East
Its origin? Far, far away.The Siamese cat is originally from the emblematic kingdom of Siam, present-day Thailand, but throughout the 19th century numerous merchants began to take them with their ships to sell them in England to the upper classes , and these, in turn, also took them on their trips to the United States.
We must say that the breed of Siamese cats is quite varied, but those who originally came from Thailand were very stylized specimens, thin to instead of delicate and more pale, very much like the royalty of Siam and, later, of the judges in the beauty pageants in the United States during the decade of the 50.The ones that most know or we have at home, they are more robust and not so stelized, but still, equally spectacular.
It is also thought that the siamese cat Originally from Thailand, it is the so-called Si-Sawat, or Korat.It is a somewhat different cat from the one we all have in mind, this one is more silver and with green eyes, not blue.However, feline organizations like the TICA (The International Cat Association) , they usually differentiate the old and modern siames, separating them as two different races.
And what about their character? Do they have something distinctive that differentiates them from other races? Something that always attracts attention in Siamese cats is that they are usually very scandalous during their mating season, and their meows are very sharp, persistent and, moreover, they are famous for being very sexually prolific .Another nice feature and original of Siamese cats is that many of them tend to suffer from strabismus, as you can see in the image below.

A curious feature to keep in mind is that when a siame is crossed with another breed, cats with shorter tails or with knots in the cartilage , small genetic characteristics that these cats usually leave from the ancient kingdom of Siam.And now tell us, do you have a siamese cat?
