Siamese CatSiamese Cat


















The Siamese cat is an oriental beauty. This cat is native to Thailand and has become quite popular among European and American cat owners. The Siamese cat has a distinctive look and body structure than many cats which helps it to stand out.


How Did The Siamese Cat Get It's Name

Well, i can tell you what i have researched and read, but when i spoke to my Siamese buddy he told me that one day some tune was being distributed by a kind lady who always fed a special cat. The cat name was Ese. The other cats noticed all the food the fond cat was getting and decided to join in on the party. But when the lady came out she saw over 100 cats waiting to be fed tuna. She shouted out "Ese, where are you?" All the cats decided that day to be Ese because they and Ese looked the same, so they all shouted out I AM, they could not pronounce the I AM right and it came off sounding like SIAM. The lady got confused and simply went and bought more tuna. Then everyday she would open the door and all the cats would run to her shouting SIAM. then an old man passed one day and saw the peculiar looking cats and ask the lady, "what type of cats are those?" She shudder her shoulder and said " Siamese i guess" And from that point, they were called Siamese cats! OK, that was the story my cat told me. And i believe him. But here is what the books say.

The cat originally came from Thailand. Thailand was originally known as Siam back in the good ole' days. So the cats were naturally called Siamese. Changing the cats name to Thailese would have probably sucked. So Siamese it is. I find the cat's version much better, don't you?

How The Siamese Cat Looks
The Siamese cat has much larger ears than most cats and sparkling blue eyes. It has an athletic slim figure and has a granite coat with tapered lines. The coat color is standard in Siamese cats,, they range from chocolate, seal, blue. There heads, part of their tail and part of their feet take on a darker color.

Temperament
The Siamese cat is a wonderful cat to have as a pet as it loves social interaction. It adores it's human companion and may be a bit clingy. The Siamese cat is very vocal as it sits with its owner to enjoy a nice cup of warm milk.  Overall, the Siamese cat makes a great house pet.

Characteristics
Siamese cats are good looking and rely much more on humans than most cats. Siamese cats lack several traits that comes with most cats.
  • They cannot see clearly in low lit or dark areas like most cats
  • They have less sensitive hearing than other cats
So don't go get a Siamese cat if you plan to go mice hunting in the backyard at nights, you may just have to catch a few for your Siamese cat while he takes count. Siamese cats are people cats, they just love being around people. They cherish the time spent with their owners and get depressed when left alone for very long time. If you are not a home type of person, meaning you are rarely at home. It is best to not get a Siamese cat or hire a pet sitter to keep the cat company while you are away. One other way to alleviate the lonly feeling of your Siamese cat is to simply get two Siamese cat to keep each others company.

Playtime

If you want to come home and still find the stuffing in your teddy or sofa, it is a wise choice to provide some toys for your Siamese pal. Siamese will enjoy movable toys such as ball, mouse, other toy cat. Ensure also that you get the Siamese a scratch mat or post so it wont use your sofa or dinner table to exercise its claws. While you are at home, you can join in the fun too, with hoops for you cat to jump through and many other exciting cat games.

Food
Talk about having a healthy appetite and you are talking Siamese. Siamese cats eat a lot and possess a great metabolism. They will eat large portions of food, yet will not get fat. One thing which is observed by the Siamese Cat is that, even though they eat large portions of food, they will not over eat. When the cat deems itself full, it will simply leave the remainder in it's plate. When a cat leaves food in it's plate, it could mean three things;
  • The cat hates the food
  • It has eaten it's full and you must lessen the amount you give your cat
  • It may be feeling under the weather

Growth
Your Siamese cat will grow faster than many others in the cat family. They will begin to mature as early as 5 month. If you don't want your female Siamese cat to get pregnant, spaying is recommended earlier in this breed of cat.

Health
If you are seeking a lifelong companion, the Siamese cat life span can reach up to twenty years. Even though there are owners who claimed that they have had their Siamese for 25 years. They are are more prone to gum and teeth diseases such as gingivitis and tartar. What you need to do as a Siamese cat owner or if you are thinking of owning one is to keep tabs on the healthiness of your Siamese mouth and ensure that it gets it regular vet checkups.

As a cat owner who have had the pleasure of owning and taking care of several cats. I would recommend a Siamese cat to any cat lover who has the time to spend with this social animal.

So you believe because you cat is cool and have eyes deadlier than Chuck Norris or has moves wickeder than Michael Jai White you think your feline friend is immune to getting cat flu. Well, i have news for you today. It's not! Cats get the flu just like any other human or animals. What you will hear your vet refer to as cat flu is "Upper Respiratory Infection" (URI). This infection normally last anywhere from 4-7 days and is caused by 2 viruses your cat caught. So how do you know that your cat is ill and has the flew? Well you need to look for all symptoms associated with cat flu:

Cat Flu Symptoms
  • Loss of Appetite
  • Runny Nose
  • Sneezing
  • Stuffiness
  • Extra Ordinary Sleep

If you notice any of the above in your cat, chances are that the feline has come across with the flu virus and needs some TLC.

What You Need To Do
Your cat is under the weather and your duty is to ensure that the cat is properly treated. You can do simple things to ensure that the cat recuperates promptly and the virus does not linger in her system too long.

Ensure that the cat keeps hydrated.
  • Ensure that you make up for the cat's loss of appetite by providing alternative nutrients.
  • Try giving your cat tuna or sardines, a food that cats just can't resist.
  • Give you cat a boost in immune system with some vitamin C. Note:DO NOT give your cat straight vitamin C as this will make her even more unpleasant as it irritates her stomach. Use an alternative such as Sodium Ascorbate Crystals. Give the cat at most 200mg daily for 3-5 days. Look out for any uneasiness in your cat, if you notice this vitamin c does not sit well with the feline, simply discontinue.
Use Colloidal Silver
Colloidal Silver kills over 650 different diseases and is an alternative antibiotic. It is available at your health food store. I recommend Wellness by Source Naturals 30PPM. Give your cat 1/3 of the recommended dosage 3 times daily for 5 days and then twice daily for 5 days. You can keep her on a maintenance dose once daily after she gets better.  It can also be used in her ears and eyes. 

Using Humidifier
A humidifier is great for easing congestion and will help your cat breathe easier. If you don't have one, put her in the bathroom and turn the shower on hot. WARNING: DO not put her in the shower. It is advised that you stay in the bathroom with her for 15 to 20 minutes. Keep your cat in a warm area without drafts. The cat flu is highly contagious, so if you have multiple cats, keep your sick kitty in a different area.
