TRADITIONAL SIAMESE HISTORY

The Royal Cat of Siam in Thailand, gained prominence in 1871. Two Traditional Siamese were successfully shown at London’s Crystal palace. Sir Owen Gould, 1884, serving as English Consul-General to Bangkok brought two Traditional Siamese to his family in England. These Traditional Siamese were given to Gould by the King of Siam from the Royal Cattery. King Chulalongkorn later gave Traditional Siamese to his favored guests.

The first Traditional Siamese came to the United States in 1890. They quickly gained recognition in the U.S. and by 1920 were enjoying considerable popularity. Many people are attracted to the Traditional and Classic Siamese because of their unique personality and beauty! The Traditional and Classic Siamese accent their beauty by displaying a variety of color points: Seal, Chocolate, Blue and Lilac.
