Siamese - The Changing Breed

Filed Under Legal and Law, Pets | Posted on February 1, 2008

The Siamese cat is a natural breed, which means that the traits commonly associated with the Siamese were not artificially introduced into the cat. Their history goes back hundreds of years to Thailand, or as it was then known, Siam. In modern history, Siamese were first brought to Britain and then later to the United States.

Currently there are two main Siamese cat looks. There is the “wedge-headed” cat, which is the breed standard and the “appleheaded” Siamese. The appleheaded cat is often called a “traditional” Siamese. At this point in time, it is difficult to know which cat was the true breed. It is possible that the long lithe wedge shaped cat was as common as the heavier boned applehead.
