The Siamese is a very popular and well loved cat breed. Its origins are in Thailand where the Siamese were sacred guards of Buddhist temples. To be given a Siamese Kitten was a high honour and the Royal Cats of Siam were well suited to the regal life! Eventually they made their way to the West and their kingdoms became the family home.
