In this section I have included information about various types to help you differentiate between the Applehead, old-style and classic, the three main types found within the Traditional group of Siamese cats. We will also be discussing coat color, eye color, nose leather and paw pads. We will be starting from the largest of the three types going down to the most sleek. The Balinese is also included in these groups of body types and is known as the long-haired Siamese. (Balinese)

The profile of the Applehead Siamese is a more stocky, big-boned and heavier build of the three Siamese cats. It is also larger in bone structure. The given term, Applehead is due to its head that resembles the shape of an apple, very round. The Appleheads nose profile has an obvious dip that can be seen when the head is turned on its side. The word is what breeders are referring to when describing a break in the nose. Its nose is also shorter when viewed side on. Additionally, the Applehead typically has shorter and smaller ears.

TRADITIONAL APPLEHEAD

The profile of the classic Siamese is a more elegant athletic muscular shaped body and is just as healthy as the Applehead Siamese and the old-style Siamese. Lighter on their feet than the two mentioned above, the classic Siamese yet again has a slightly more elongated shape to its head then the Applehead Siamese and old-style Siamese, but is not extreme in any way. It also has a slightly more elongated body, legs and tail. Their ears are larger and higher situated on the head than the two mentioned above. Its nose is longer, making the nozzle appear longer, when viewed side on. It is still part of the three groups of Siamese cats that originated from Siam. The old-style Siamese and classic Siamese possess the original body types that came from Siam. These cats have been known to live well into their teens. The classic Siamese nose profile has as almost no dip that can be seen when the head is turn on its side.

TRADITIONAL CLASSIC

The profile of the old-style Siamese is a more medium-size Siamese in bone structure. The shape of the head is more of an oval tilted vertically. The old-style Siamese has a slightly elongated face compared to the Applehead. It is also slightly more athletic in built than then the Applehead Siamese . The coats of all three types of Siamese cats are short and dense, yet soft and springy to touch. The old-style Siamese nose profile has as a less pronounced dip than the Traditional Applehead as seen above.

TRADITIONAL OLD-STYLE

Although, I do not sell the wedge Siamese cat, I thought that it is necessary to describe it. The wedge Siamese is far more elongated and more extreme in body type and much smaller in size than the Traditional. The name wedge derives from the wedge-shaped head, like a triangle, very sharp and pointed. The wedge Siamese head is delineated by an absolutely straight profile and aligned chin. From the Tip of its nose and through to the corner extending to the two accented large ears that complete the wedge like shaped head. The eyes are a more slanted, almond-like shape and set one eye width between the eyes. The rest of the body is longer, thinner, tubular and svelte looking. The wedge Siamese nose profile has no dip that can be seen when the head is turn on its side. Its nose is also a lot wider than the above three groups of Siamese. Like the wedge Siamese, the Thai (old-style) Siamese is now shown at TICA and CFF Cat Shows.

SEAL POINT SIAMESE: All Siamese cats descended from Seal Point, the Dominant and the darkest of all four basic colors. The Seal Point is almost Black, dark brown in color. The younger have lighter bodies than the older cats. Body is pale fawn and shaded on shoulders and back. The points include facial mask, ears, legs, feet and tail. All Siamese kittens are born white. The original Royal Cat of Siam was the Royal Seal and is described as what is now known as the Seal Point Siamese, the first variety of Siamese to gain recognition. Most sorted and prized is the Seal Point, considered a royal color, and is said to be most Siamese. While other colors were slowly introduced they took some time to be accepted. The Blue Point was the next variety after the seal to gain recognition. Chocolate was the third and lastly, Lilac. Therefore, for many decades, these colors were the only recognized varieties of the Siamese type. The Red Point variety is one of the more recent additions followed closely by the Tabby. Although some associations recognize the Red Point, Lynx and Tortie Points as being within the Siamese Class, CFA and other registries list them as a separate breed known as Color Points. Most Fanciers support the theory that only the four basic colors, are truly Siamese. The others are hybrids or man-made. They are not fully Siamese. Flame Points, for example, are larger than other colors, being a cross between the America Shorthair and the Siamese. The Tabby, or Lynx Point, is another hybrid breed resulting from crossing a Siamese with a Tabby Domestic Cat. The Flame Point Siamese bred to a Seal Point results in a Tortoiseshell Siamese.

Nose leather is jet black color or Seal brown. Paw pads are jet black. Can also appear seal brown in color.
