9 Reasons to adopt a Siamese Cat 

I've been longing to adopt a siamese cat unfortunately the shelters in NYC never seem to have any Any information you can provide me would be highly appreciated. I'm really drawn more to the Males

I have one, I've been telling him to give me a kiss on the cheek for weeks but he wouldn't. Then, one day he gets close to my face and slams his mouth on my cheek with full force. The best kiss I ever had, even though it hurt a little.

I have owned Siamese cats for the last 47 years. I love their personality and talkative nature. No more loyal feline can be found.

Actually very smart cats. Will look both ways before crossing street.

did you mention how super intelligent they are

I have a Siamese and a black cat too. Perfect combo. My Siamese isn’t a lap cat but she always at my side on sofa and bedtime. They love company.

My first Siamese turned into a friend, a travel companion, an arbiter of relationships, a birthing coach, an extraordinary nanny, a teacher of how to catch a mouse to all of our cats and Dobermans and ultimately the Grand Dame of the household. Jenny had the best and loudest purr ever right to the end. She was 24 when l needed to put her down because of pretty extensive breast cancer. She passed in my arms, purring the entire time. She slept in my armpit every night. When my son was born she slept under his bassinet and would hear him wake before l could. She would wake me up, usually by slapping my face with her paw. Once she was convinced that all of the baby's needs were met, she would climb into my armpit and sleep, at least long enough to know l was asleep. 24 years we were together. She was irreplaceable. Many years later, a two year old neutured male seal point came into my life and what a joy he was. It was like he knew my health was poor. I used a wheelchair by then because of neuromuscular deficits but it didn't bother him. He was very protective of me. His extraordinary behavior rivaled my first Siamese. He got to know our neighbors and made his rounds several nights a week. He would go into these homes for playtime, a little food or treats and to give and get love and adoration. Unfortunately, his life was cut short due to a spinal tumor and l lost him far too young. He would still be with me if not for that. All of the neighbors made condolence calls complete with Rainbow Bridge sympathy cards. That was the extent of love he shared. Now l am searching for another Siamese. The love they give is endless and expressed in so many ways. While both of my Siamese ate very good cat foods in various forms, their favorite foods were whatever l was eating - vegetables, mashed or baked potatoes, meat, fish, chicken, ham, stew, soup, deserts of all kinds. Both of my Siamese liked being able to eat from a fork or spoon so we usually shared food at mealtime. I love dogs but can no longer care for them. I have had many non-Siamese cats including the fur baby l have now. But it is such a special relationship with a Siamese. They are extraordinarily smart but also exceptionally intuitive and capable of providing emotional support when needed, more than any other breed of cat. Siamese cats are not our pets; they are our friends and family and are that way forever.

I had a siamese cat who taught me how to play fetch. I fetched everything for her. Also she would fetch bottle caps. Just like a dog. We played for hours. She was a siamese retriever. RIP Meeka

The talking thing DOES bear mentioning twice--they talk a LOT. Also, they are little clowns, and they are a little more "velcro" than other cats--almost like dogs that way.

I had my Siamese for 18 years. He was so friendly and chill, everyone he met would marvel at how lovable he was. He just loved being pet, sitting in your lap, and talking. I grew up with cats in the house and met many others among my friends but Siamese remain my favorite breed because of their super loyal companionship.

One day i was crying and laying in my bed and my cat sit next to me and with her paw caress my cheek. She was so sweet, i miss her. Now i have another siamese and he's so talkative and sweet too. They have a strong personality that anyone cat has.

I just adopted a five year old Siamese and she is seriously the SWEETEST cat I have ever met. I didn’t think such a perfect cat existed. She doesn’t really ever speak and she just lays on me all day and head butts me (lol) she’s seriously amazing. I love my Siamese!!

I had a Siamese once. My mother brought him home from work as a stray. He was beautiful, but wasn't debollocked. You could hear him "roaring" at other male cats in the neighbourhood at 4 in the morning. He'd talk, sing, play, talk some more. His name was Donald (no, not after _that_ Donald). He was a great cat. (My mother eventually found it's owner.)

I just got a siamese female kitten, someone help me she hates me.

There's a Siamese cat in my apartments who loves to cuddle, play, and meow at everyone they like. He pretty much adopted my parents and I as his main family and we love him.

I have a snowshoe siamese since he was 7 days old. His Mommy abandoned him. He fluffy, big, and lovable. He talks all night and day.

My Siamese talks when she wants something or is protesting the vet visit

My snowshoe siamese was the toughest most motherly animal you'd ever meet. I watched her scare away animals 10x her size to protect her family. That little kitty scared off german shepherds! Siamese have huge spirits!

I have a siamese female cat she is adorable, funny and a very good companion. She is helping me cheer up

My Aunt gave me a baby siamese kitten she’s perfect❤️

I have a flame point Siamese and he's the sweetest thing ever. I love him and so glad I adopted him.

My siamese cat came out of nowhere but we're taking care of her! She's actually 9 years old this year, quite old for a cat but i m glad she's still around despite being demanding sometimes😂😂

My Siamese cat makes a sound like little bells ringing when she meows.

One reason not to: They're too cute.

I took home a Siamese one freezing winter night. He was wonderful ❤️.

Yes, they are gorgeous and extremely loving with an occasional aloofness thrown in for good measure. I have had the pleasure of 1 male and 4 females Siamese kitty cats over the years as being part of what was once my family. They are also in my experience quite clever and very good at training their human companions.

They are so intelligent. I trained mine to use the toilet. No litter box in the house now for seven years!

Mine scared the shit outta my mom one night she meowed and sounded like a crying baby

Over the years I have had 6 Siamese both male and female. All were wonderful. Beautiful,smart,affectionate, best cats ever.

They're pretty cats. I've had Siamese before and are just so much fun

Imma adopt a siamese after this covid-19 total lock down

I have a seal point Ziggy Stardust and I don't know how to exist without him

Reason: they're funny Me on an interview sofa: Comedy... Is subjective Momo.

I have a Siamese male cat. He was given to me by my aunt. I named him Lovi (short for Lovemir) cause he's so sweet. When I first met him, we was frightened and very anxious to the point that he would hiss at me and scratch me. It took a week before he started to open to me. Months later, he's being so clingy, talkative, playful and he likes to sleep by my side. He's the sweetest and he looks cute. He's now 5 months old and my life has been more colorful when he came into my life ♥️

Definitely chatty 😅 and playful. And curious. And very smart

I have two, I love them so much, very intelligent cats! And talking the whole day!

Many years ago I had a siamese crossed with something. He was totally black, had the raucous siamese miaow, and was the meanest cat on the block (literally) thanks to his early years being owned by the autistic brother of a mate of mine who handled him very roughly. He was called Sandshoes, named after my mate whose family name was Sanchez. He attacked everyone in the family apart from my Mum, because he knew she was his provider. The neighbourhood dogs would cross the street to go past our house and our neighbour complained several times about him attacking their dogs. We had some renovations done once and he attacked the poor guy who was tiling our roof, then stole the chicken sandwiches out of his ute (pickup). A vet said that the best thing he could do was put him down but my family would not hear of it. Over the years he mellowed, but all the fights he go into with other cats (god help them) took their toll and at about 15 years old he went into a decline. I had long moved out of home, and Mum and Dad rang one day to tell me he had curled up in his favourite possie and died. They were grief stricken. Anyone who doesn't love cats has never had one. RIP Sandshoes, you old black-strap, you crazy old licorice stick. They broke the mould when they made you.

I've had 4 Siamese cats over the years. The first was my beloved Greta. She made me a lifelong cat lover. Been gone since 2008 and I still miss her. I will always have at least one meezer in my cat family.

One thing I learned about my Siamese cat is if she doesn’t get the attention she wants, she’ll wreck the house until she does. I love her tho 😭

I have a Siamese snowshoe and he plays fetch, will bring the toy back for over a hour straight lol. He also insists on being little spoon, even puts his head on the same pillow as mine. In fact, if hes not being little spoon he has to have his head propped on some kind of pillow, like a water bottle or remote. I even bought him a dolls pillow and he uses it. And he follows me around exactly like a dog does, and is harness trained outside. I really wanted a dog but am unable to care for a dog because of a MVA, my Siamese was the best thing I ever found in the shelter. I have 2 other cats and they're just normal cats lol they are aloof.

A friend rescued 5 meezers that she found abandoned and orphaned in the hollow of a huge oak treee in a wooded area in the center of San Antonio and I end up with one whom I named Jr. and who is a blue cross eyed flame point and recently celebrated his 1st birthday and myself just turning 59 who has never ever had a cat , I am over the moon with Jr.’s antics , carisma and loving nature !!!! Hope that God will bless me with another 59 yrs so I can enjoy this lil’ feller !!!

I've got one, everything is totally true in this vid! :

So adorable

Siamese are so special. Mine wants to play and spend time with me 24h/24. I also taught him to walk on a leash and he enjoys so much exploring green areas

My Siamese jumped when the meowing started. Siamese are so loving and enjoy being the center of attention.

People always ask why I want Siamese cats. Duh, it's like getting a cat, a dog and a monkey all in one. They look so regal, they talk, they are so goofy and they have huge personalities. My Milo is currently running around yelling about something. He's a gorgeous Seal point with slightly crossed blue eyes. I also have a lilac point female who talks constantly. They're just amazing cats. Not saying my tiny panther (really large black kitty that doesn't like being called large) or is siamese mix aren't amazing, just that the 2 Siamese are the most interesting.

I’ve had Siamese pure blood or a cross breed since 1983. Now handicapped and unable to have one. I miss them so much! My last 2, both made it to 17 years. Loved the conversations, the purr, and those beautiful eyes 🐾

I love the picture on the thumbnail. Momo is like Hmmmm.

Most loyal cat breed and best temperament. It's basically a dog!

my family has always had siamese cats so a year before i was born my moms two siamese had a litter and then ive had my cat ever since. and he is just the most precious siamese i could ever know. we even still have the rest of the litter just with different family members. siamese are the best

The best cat I ever had was Jake, the Siamese cat. I had him for 18 years. I still miss him.

when i was young we had a blind siamese named Turkey. i would take him for walks and he would follow the sound of my jingling keys and catch/eat grasshoppers. i would pat my upper chest and he'd jump up/id catch him and put his front legs over my shoulder. we had a 2nd black/white cat [younger] named Bad Person cuz she kept hiding and attacking Turkey every chance she got.

Siamese cats are the most beautiful and loveable cats

Love them

I have 5 Siamese cats, I love them so much. They’re the sweetest things!

My boy is my life! I’ve never found a better breed to love! They are very empathetic and desire love!

I'm sure he's not full blood, but I found one on the side of the road and he took to me as soon as we got home. Been three days now, and little guy has taken over.....love him!

An old neighbor of mine used to have a Siamese Cat😺 And That it was just so very loving & playful towards me and my own Tuxedo Cat That I used to have growing up !!!!!

The talking bit is rightfully mentioned twice - Their meowings are so cute!

Best breed ever! I currently have 3.

Nice video, beautiful Siamese kitty-cat. However, there are more than Chocolate Tips (points), such as: Seal Point, Blue Point, Chocolate Point, Lilac Point, Flame Point and Tortie Point. I prefer a Lilac point, but love all cats, whether they be Siamese or not! Thank you for the upload!

Alma is 3 years old, I'm 19 and started working at 18, according to my mom, she can't stand me not being in the house, constantly looking around or meowing at the bathroom door When I arrive, it's around 10 minutes of her following me around seeking attention Once I didn't go back home from work, and went to another city to visit a friend instead, a few hours later my mother sent me a video of Alma meowing at her constantly, as if asking where I was. I love her.

I just adopted a 3 month old Siamese kitten and he is the best companion anyone could ask for! Super loving and playful! 🐱❤️

Absolutely gorgeous! And the black cat, too.

I have genuinely never felt so adored to a cat until I heard the first one :')

Someone gave me a female Siamese cat last week. I’ve always been more of a Persian or Ragdoll cat lover. But my new girl is soooo sweet! She talks to me, likes to Eskimo kiss and if I leave the room, she looks for me. It’s almost like having dog- sorta! I’m so glad she was given to me.

My little Siamese is a rescue. Got him as a kitten from a Michigan rescue group and named him ‘Michi.’ Have had Siamese all my life and love the breed! :)

I am getting a Siamese kitten.

I had a Siamese named Naku but he died about a year ago so now I have a Balinese names Kiki who is a longhair Siamese. They are such great cats!

Siamese are very chatty. As you can tell i'm a cat fan. Black cats are so beautiful. Marble eyes that shine in the dark.

I had cats since I was a kid, and many different breeds, my favorite it siamese they are so fun, and loving

On a hot summer day my Siamese cat sits in front of the Air Conditioning vents to cool off . In the winter he sits in front of the vents to stay warm . Very smart cat .

I just got a siamese cat 3 or 4 days ago, we actually rescued her she has a serious bruise on her arm. The docters said that a animal bit her and broke her bone, lets hope she makes it out alive... TwT

My sister has a Siamese cat. Sassy doesn’t meow much but she’s pretty cool. She’s playful and good at catching mice.

I had a seal point Siamese cat many years ago. Before the days when computers were commonly used, I had an electric typewriter. It suddenly started printing or making the sound of a typewriter going very fast. My cat was standing near it. The suddenness of the sounds caused him to act very oddly. The look in his eyes was as if he had gone mad, and he tilted his head to one side, and then started spinning around in the same spot, doing 180 degree leaps in circles. I think it was the funniest thing I ever saw a cat do.

Such beautiful coloured coat!!!

I had one for over 20 yrs. Although their vocal behaviour can be rather overwhelming they are very smart, loving, loyal and totally empathic. Great family cat if you can spend the time & effort and respect their personality. In common they dont prosper well on their own.

Great video! Beautiful kitty too!

Dear Momo Siamese! Thank you for sharing this video! Yes, you are right! We are so adorable! We are super playful! But I do not talk so much. Maybe because I am 3 months old? With love, Alpha The Siamese Cat

I was standing in my backyard, and I heard a cat crying, I looked beside my pool and fit was a baby one, it’s been 5 weeks now and she loves life

I love my siamese cat so much. She is exceptionally smart, cute, very loving and I love it when she watches TV with me. Her favorite channel is Animal Planet.

This breed looks fancy ngl

Got a Siamese cat 6 months ago. Best thing I,ve ever done.

Siamese tend to have a “dog” personality. Mine behaves more like a dog than cat

Beautiful. Thank you

When I grow up I want a Siamese cat when I'm like 20 or something

I have a siamese cat :)! They are soo talkative!

i have a torti point siamese, and she’s the funniest cat ever!

I love Siamese cats! I love their talkativeness and their unique meows! I will definitely adopt one someday! 💖💖💖

This is purrrrrrr~fect I shall show this to my mom!

I had always thought Siamese cats were so beautiful, but most likely out of my $$ range. Three years ago I walked into our local Animal Shelter and there was a three month old Siamese kitten. I couldn’t believe someone would dump a Siamese kitten; he became my baby. I love his quirks, attitude and snuggle bugness. I’ve always had cats, but he is really special. Each night he paws at my bed linens so I can lift the cover and he can crawl under and lay his sweet head on the pillow next to me. He softly purrs, kneads a bit and falls asleep.

Awww, she's adorable!:) I have a Siamese of my own(she's 8 years old now), and I adopted her for the majority of these listed reasons. I love my baby!:)

I have a 10 year old half siamese cat, she has black fur, green eyes, and is sooo soft. the stems of her fur are a bright white where as the ends of her fur are black. She LOVES to talk

mine meows a lot for treats its so cute and squeaky

Keep checking, we got an Abyssinian at a shelter in Daytona Beach. You have to go fairly often, like once a week and sometimes blammo, there is one you can adopt. We beat another guy by one day; he wanted it badly but we had first dibs b/c we came in a day sooner....

I have one. Definitely what kept me sane during the Covid house lockdown

So cute 😆

I had my Pyewacket, 23 years, she was special and a true family member. I really think she thought she was a human.

Mine just passed on 18 years! I miss him.

I LOVE Siamese cats! They’re beautiful and affectionate, and yes, they do talk a lot! Lol. I love their personality traits, that are so just adorable which set them apart from other cats. I was lucky enough to have found a stray one when he was just a kitten. He’s the sweetest and very affectionate. He likes snuggling up to me when I’m lying down and would start meowing/talking and scratching my door when I’m in my room (it’s his way of saying, “let me in!” 😂) Though he can be clingy at times but I’m not complaining. Lol. He’s the kind of cat that doesn’t like being alone. Though he can be independent too but he prefers having company to interact with and gets along with anyone. Sometimes, I think he’s too good of a cat, too gentle and vulnerable. He doesn’t show aggressive behavior towards anyone when annoyed, intimidated, or threatened. He doesn’t hiss, scratch, or fight back. I feel bad because my other cat would hiss at him when he’s being too playful with him, and my dog would snarl at him when he’s in her space and lies down beside her. Also when my brother plays with him a little too rough sometimes to the point where it gets uncomfortable to watch. Poor thing 😭 I don’t know why I tend to worry too much, especially when he runs out of the house. I worry and feel uneasy that something bad might happen to him, like getting run over by a car or snatched off the street and take him home or sell him 😩😭 I may sound a bit crazy for worrying too much but he’s like my child. I love my baby so much and I wouldn’t trade him for the world.
