Cats are usually divided as domestic or affiliated cats, domestic cats usually do not have a history of their lineage, while pedigree cats do. Some of these lineages are recognized by international cat societies, such as the International Cat Association (TICA), which recognizes only 43 of the more than 100 lineages known to date. Today we present to you a collection of the most beautiful and popular cat breeds.

Siamese cat

The Siamese is a cat of Chinese-Thai origin, called this name because the king of Thai Siam gave it to the English Consul Owen Gould in 1880 AD, and a cat specialist domesticated him in 1890 AD to get out of him the Siamese that we know today, as he was not in this way the same, but had longer hair And a more round head.

The Siamese are distinguished by their short luxurious and colorful hair and blue eyes, their young are often slightly light-colored and darken with time. It has four colors, gray, blue (which is its current popular color), chocolate, and shades.

The head of the Siamese is completely triangular at the ends of the ears and has a long nose and almond eyes, as in the image above, and the eyes are always blue.

The Siamese cat hates to share with another cat in his relationship with his companion, so he is very fierce with any other cats present with him in the house, and he prefers to have a connected relationship only with one person without anyone else present in the house, it is easy to teach the Siamese as the dog learned . He can learn to lie down, stand on knees, and pick up objects after throwing them.

Unlike other cats, Siamese love water and enjoy playing in it.
