- Synopsis
- From the Book Jacket: This beautifully illustrated book celebrates the Siamese. The spectacular and strong affectionate nature and intelligence have made the Siamese far and away the most popular breed of cat. Long and slim, with dazzling blue eyes, its creamy coat is highlighted by a variety of color "points" - Blue, Lilac, Red, Chocolate and the traditional Seal. A full and knowing text gives the reader a history of the breed and a complete tour of the many varieties found within the Siamese family including the newer strains, such as the "Tortie Points" and the Si-Rex. In addition, there are many inside tips about health, care, kittens, breeding and grooming. For the ambitious, there is a chapter on Showing. A special feature of the book is the comparison of American and British standards. The author of the standard work on the Siamese, Phyllis Lauder, has been a judge and breeder on the international scene for many years. This book is further proof of her lifelong love affair with the Siamese cat. 90 Photographs, 24 in full color
