Thai: breed description

These kittens are close relatives of Siamese and very often ordinary people confuse them because of their color and eye color. Thai pussies have a beautiful coat color, and when combined with blue eyes, they can cause emotion in anyone.

These kittens are very playful and especially mischievous at a young age. They won't sit modestly on the couch and will always find something to do.

Origin Story

The birthplace of the breed is the island of Siam (Thailand), where the export of these kittens was prohibited. Cats came to Europe in the 19th century, when the local ruler presented several kittens to the British Consul O. Gould.

The kittens were presented at an exhibition in 1985, held in London at the Crystal Palace. Blue-eyed beauties have captured the hearts of cat lovers with their grace, color and, of course, sky-blue eyes.

H.Ware established a standard and identified 2 types of Siamese — some had an expanded head and a dense physique, while others had a wedge-shaped head with a refined physique. In England, refined cats were preferred, while German and American breeders decided to keep the original type.

The breed received official recognition only at the end of the last century.

Appearance

Representatives of the breed have a dense and muscular physique and a weight of 3 to 5 kg. The paws are long and slender. The head is round, with clear blue eyes. The ears are medium-sized with rounded tips. The coat is short and soft without an undercoat.

Personality

These are active kitties who are curious about who is doing what at home. They like to run out unexpectedly, play with the owner and family members. Thai people have a cunning nature, and often the owners are served by these tricks.

They get along well with children, as long as they are treated carefully. Otherwise, claws and teeth will be used.

Care

The coat should be combed once every two weeks, and once a week it is wiped with a wet velour cloth. They bathe the pet only if it gets dirty, as the representatives wash themselves perfectly.

Food

They feed their pets with ready-made dry and wet feeds or with a straight woman. When choosing a straight woman, the basis of the diet should be meat, offal only in boiled form. The rest is cereals, sour milk, vegetables and fruits, and once a week a milled fish and a boiled egg are given.

Health

The breed has excellent health, but it is prone to certain diseases — liver amyloidosis, including hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, breast tumors and gingivitis.
