Siamese

Felis catus

Dato Curioso

Siamese cats were once so valued in Siam that they guarded royal palaces and temples — and their crossed eyes and kinked tails in early imports were considered marks of royal breeding.

One of the oldest and most recognizable breeds — colorpointed coat, vivid blue almond-shaped eyes, and a lean, elegant body. Highly vocal, intelligent, and emotionally demanding. Modern type is svelte; traditional 'apple-head' still exists in some registries. Known as the 'Royal Cat of Siam.'
