Many myths and legends are known about the Siamese. One of them tells us that the Siamese originated in the Orient. The Siamese gets its name from the country of origin, "Siam", now known as Thailand, a small Oriental country. Of course there seems no other explanation than that such a fascinating, even mystical cat originates from the Orient.

The fact remains that every true catlover that has had the privilege of owning a Siamese becomes aware very quickly that they could never do without again. A true Siamese is curious and full of action. It likes to lay down the law and is always in search of new challenges. It loves to eat, has a big mouth and has to have the last word. He is an accomplished lover, she is an excellent mother.

When we talk about the Siamese, we immediately think of a mediumsized, elegant, muscular cat with a distinguished head and whiptail. The eyes are sapphireblue and the points are dark-brown. The Sealpoint Siamese was and maybe still is the most popular cat in the catfancy.

Many breeders saw it as a challenge to develop new colour after new colour from the Sealpoints. Gradually there appeared the Bluepoints, Chocolatepoints and Lilacpoint Siamese. Shortly after the war the Red- and Tortiepoints appeared. The most recent colours are Cinnamonpoint, Fawnpoint and Caramelpoint.
