The earliest illustrations and descriptions of my breed came from a collection of ancient manuscripts called the Tamra Maew (“The Cat-Book Poems”). Humans believe that my earliest ancestors were sacred temple cats in the Ayutthaya Kingdom period (1351 to 1767 AD). If I carry myself with a regal bearing and look like I’m a kitty fit for a king or queen, it’s because my ancestors were the companions of royalty! My breed originally came from Thailand, which used to be called Siam – hence the name Siamese. But if you’re looking for a kitty who will be by your side 24/7, I’m the prrrfect choice. The most crucial thing I need from my human is attention, so I may not be the best pet for you if you aren’t home a lot. But don’t let my regal good looks fool you – I’m more than just a pretty face, I’m super smart too! I especially love puzzle games that test my problem-solving skills! I have a lot of energy and love to jump around, so if you want to keep me from climbing on stuff I shouldn’t, a super fun cat tree should do the trick!. It doesn’t take much to keep me looking furbulous since I don’t shed that much and my short hair only requires a weekly brushing. Don’t be surprised to find me following you around the house meowing away or hopping straight into your lap the first chance I get. I understand that you may not speak Cat, but that won’t stop me from talking to you like you do! I am incredibly social and affectionate and will bond with my family easily ( kids and other pets included). If you’re looking for a loving kitty companion who LOVES to chat, I am the breed for you! We Siamese (affectionately known as Meezers by humans who love us) are one of the most talkative cat breeds around.
