THE SIAMESE

This breed represents the ultimate in feline beauty, and is the most instantly recognizable of all the breeds. With the pointed colors, blue eyes, wedge shaped head, large ears, long, fine body andits whippy tail. They are a very vocal cat, can often sound like a baby crying, and sometimes will carry on a running conversation with their owners. This is an active breed, always looking for playmates and toys, except when they curl up with you in bed.
The first Siamese had very dark points and were called seal Point, then the Blue Point, Chocolate Point. And Lilac Point were developed. The Siamese tabby was used in 1924 to re-introduce tabby points. (Lynx Points) found on the cats from Thailand (Siam) and still seen there now at the temples. Later, the red gene was added to let the Siamese be shown in all its original colors and beauty.

THE ORIENTAL SHORTHAIR

Developed to explore all the many possibilities of patterns and colors, it is simply just like a SIAMESE in another pattern or color . This man-made breed was developed during World War II by the British cat fancy. When travel to mate their Siamese was impossible, due to the shortage of petrol, they bred their cats to Russian Blues and other short-hair breeds which then produced unique patterns and colors that duplicated many of the original cats from Siam (Thailand)
These cats have green eyes but the solid whites may have blue, green or odd eyes. Orientals, as they are called, all have the same temperament and agility of their Siamese cousins. People who often are determined to buy a pointed Siamese leave with an oriental kitten.

Both of these breeds are very intelligent and make wonderful pets, but be warned… that you will not own a Siamese or OSH kitten, they will own you.
