Everyone's favorites

Siamese kittens with blue eyes and dark faces have always been one of the most beloved breeds. The famous Vivien Leigh, who performed an excellent role in the film “Gone with the Wind,” had two Siamese cats at once. One was named succinctly Boy (translated from English as a boy), the second cat was nicknamed Poo Jones.

Among domestic celebrities, Armen Dzhigarkhanyan and the incomparable Faina Ranevskaya became famous for their love for this obstinate breed. The great actor had a Siamese cat named Philosopher or, as he affectionately called him for short, Phil, and the actress Ranevskaya’s cat was named Kon-Tiki. Faina Ranevskaya’s pet is considered one of the longest-livers among Siamese, he lived up to 20 years.

History of the ancient breed

The Siamese breed is a cat of unimaginable beauty, surrounded by a lot of legends and myths. The most poetic legend about fawn beauties concerns the very creation of the world. It says that during the Great Flood, a lioness and a monkey once met on the Ark. Such charming animals could not pass by each other and, unexpectedly for the Lord himself, fell in love. The fruit of their passion was the world's first Siamese cat. The lioness gave birth to kittens with dark paws. The world received an amazing breed from this union - its habits resemble those of a monkey, but its courage and wisdom are certainly that of a lion.

According to the Bible, the Siamese cat combines the blood of an agile monkey and a brave lioness.

It is curious that breeders adhere to the version of interspecific crossing. True, its participants were more prosaic heroes. The ancestors of the breed were cats brought by nomads to the shores of Southeast Asia. Scattering across new lands, they became acquainted with local pets and gave birth to unusual offspring. At that time, the territory belonged to the state of Siam. Therefore, cats born in “interracial” feline marriages are called Siamese.

Siamese cats got their name from the city of Siam, where the breed originated.

The local population could not help but notice the unusual transformation of the tailed beau monde. Suddenly, cats dressed up in extravagant fur coats became real objects of worship. The Siamese idolized individuals with tan marks. They also got the role of furry guardians of the temples. A hitherto unknown breed of cat has become a participant in religious activities. According to the beliefs of local residents, it was the Siamese cat that escorted the souls of the dead to another place.

Modern Siamese cat exhibitions were started by Queen Victoria.

For a long time, the world had no idea about the Siamese breed. It did not leave the borders of the state until the middle of the 19th century. The ruler of Siam was the first to tell Europe about the breed, giving several kittens to his foreign colleagues. England was the first to fall in love with the unusual cat. Queen Victoria herself held exhibitions, becoming a fan of the new breed. These events gave the species worldwide popularity.

Appearance of a Siamese cat

The West has idolized the Siamese breed for 120 years. However, the appearance of this cat was not always the same as can be seen at modern exhibitions. The standard was approved only in 1902, a year after the official registration of the “Siamese Club”.

Cats of those times were not so long-legged. The muzzle was uneven, and the body was somewhat shorter than the current one. Gradually the club recognized coat colors. The first representatives of the standard could only be of the “royal” color - a beige body with dark, almost black, points.

Recognition of the different colors of Siamese cats has been gradual.

Today, Siamese can boast a wide variety of color combinations. There are caramel, cinnamon, lilac and chocolate colors.

In a true representative of the breed, the eye color will certainly harmonize with the color of the “outfit”.

You can read about the currently recognized color variants of Siamese cats below.

Breed standards

The modern standard was adopted in the 50s. Since then, a true Siamese should be lanky, with a narrow triangular muzzle and large, wide-set ears.

Table 1. Modern Thai breed standard

Parameter	Details
Muzzle	Narrow, with a straight bridge of the nose
Eyes	Almond-shaped and convex, with a beveled cut
Ears	The ears are directed in different directions
Stomach	Retracted, "sporty"
Limbs	Long, rear set higher than front
Paws	Neat, oval
Body	Muscular but lean

The fur of Siamese cats adapts to the temperature conditions in which they are located.

The shade of the breed's coat depends entirely on the temperature of the area. Cats born in warm regions are much lighter than their northern counterparts. It is also strange that the coat color can change even in adulthood if the cat is transported to a radically different climate.

Royal people

The Siamese breed has always been held in high esteem by kings and the ruling elite. Perhaps this is due to the nature of the animal, independent, noble and moderately obstinate. In every royal and royal palace one could always see blue-eyed rascals, who were treated with special attention and honor.

There is no exact information about the origin of this breed, but there are several versions about where the Siamese came from. According to the first hypothesis, they were raised within the walls of the royal palace; another theory says that Siamese cats were bred by Buddhist monks.

Be that as it may, these animals absorbed the independence, arrogance and nobility of kings, diluting it with the hidden secrets of the Universe and the absolute peace of mind received from the monks. You can rely on this when choosing a royal, truly royal name for your Siamese pet.

Simple euphonious names

Sometimes a kitten is taken into the house to replace a recently deceased pet and given the same name. It is categorically not recommended to do this, such a name will bring back sad memories of a sad event, and the pain of the loss will live in the hearts of all family members for a long time.

Therefore, it is better to give the kitten a different nickname. Moreover, the character of the new cat will be completely different from the previous pet. You will involuntarily begin to compare them and be sad if the new cat turns out to be the complete opposite of your friend who went to the rainbow.

Choosing a nickname by origin

Siamese cats, which retain a beautiful face with an inquisitive look, came to us from distant and ancient Siam, or as it is now called Thailand. Representatives of this breed will leave few people indifferent. In the homeland of Siamese cats, it is customary to say that it is not a person who gets a Siamese cat, but he should be grateful that the animal agreed to make his home happy with its presence.

It is difficult to find another breed that would be so devoted to its owners and at the same time absolutely independent. Many owners of Siamese cats, when choosing a nickname for their pet, want to pay tribute to its origin in the name.

The Siamese cat can be called Hathor - in honor of the goddess of the Moon, because it is believed that it is from the light of this celestial body that cats feed on energy. Another suitable name with a history is Isis - one of the goddesses of Egypt, who was considered a symbol of the feminine principle. The name Nekhbet is also perfect for a Siamese - this is one of the oldest names that belonged to the royal dynasty.

Blue-eyed Siamese boys can be called Siam, Simka, Tai or Simon. The pedigree and status of the cat, whose homeland is royal Siam, can be emphasized by such names as Pharaoh, Sultan, Prince, Viscount, Duke, Emperor.

Name and temperament

You can choose a nickname for a kitten based on its temperament. Observe your pet carefully: perhaps, by his behavior, he himself will tell the owner a suitable name.

So you can come up with a suitable or cool nickname, based on the actions and character of the household mischief-maker.

It’s enough to call the kitten with the chosen name; if he doesn’t show it, then it’s worth choosing a new nickname. If the animal responded to the name in one way or another - raised its paw, wagged its tail or turned around, the choice of name was made correctly.

Siamese boy Oliver:

In the footsteps of films and cartoon characters

The first nickname that comes to mind when mentioning characters and cartoons is, of course, the kitten Woof. This name is interesting, unusual and sounds quite cute for a small, playful kitten. But imagining that the nickname Woof will be given to an adult, important and arrogant Siamese cat is actually problematic.

Based on cartoon characters, you can choose the following unusual names for Siamese girls:

Bloom;
Zhanna;
Dulya;
Pinky.

Cartoon names for boys:

Boniface;
Hippopotamus;
Chershire;
Garfield;
Volume.

If you want to name a kitten after your favorite movie character, then the following are suitable:

Casper;
Felix;
Poirot;
Berlioz.

Girls named after film heroines will be just as beautiful, important, and proud:

Scarlett;
Faina;
Isis;
Ariadne.

Choosing a name for a Siamese kitten from animation or cinematography will probably be the easiest thing for the owner, because everyone has a favorite character, actor or actress.

Temperament of Siamese pets

Siamese cats have long had a strange reputation. This breed is associated with a sharp cat temperament and unwavering aggression. However, there is little truth in these words. Those who have ever loved a Thai beauty know that you cannot find a kinder pet in the world. Only after getting acquainted with this beast do you realize that a real lion is standing in front of you. And even though the size of this room king is extremely small, his soul occupies the entire room.

Aristocratism and self-control

The Siamese cat is proud. This is a real predator in a smaller version. The Thai woman's gaze conceals wild prairies and hot shrouds. Her habits are aristocratic self-control. And even though the blood of the biblical lion flows in her veins, the domestic progenitor of the Siamese cat takes over her.

Siamese cats are born aristocrats in character and habits.

A hunter and predator, the Siamese cat loves to turn into a sofa toy. She loves to bask and relax next to “her” person. By the way, no matter how many household members she has at her disposal, the pet will choose the only one with whom she will be inseparable. Her character is compared to that of a dog. She is faithful, devoted and courageous.

The Siamese's curiosity will not let his owner get bored

Curiosity and activity

A strong trait of the Siamese breed is its innate curiosity. The cat will not miss a single thing happening in the house, and will definitely stick his paw into it. The owners will have to get used to the furry observer in any room, be it a bathroom or a bedroom.

Siamese cats are extremely active. Games and races keep the cat busy all day. However, this pet needs human attention more than fresh air. You can leave your cat alone with you for no longer than a few hours.

If she wants to protect those who are dear to her, the Siamese cat will fight any enemy

The myth of Siamese aggression is partly true. But owners should not be afraid. The cat will never touch “its own”, but it instantly rushes to protect its loved ones. Those who decide to walk a Thai on a leash should know this. Don't be surprised if a Siamese cat suddenly decides to fight a shepherd.

Choosing a name based on eye color

The heavenly, azure eyes of Siamese cats will make even those who don’t really like felines fall in love with them. Looking into their bottomless eyes, the nickname will come to mind. Nicknames for blue-eyed Siamese boys:

Azurite;
Smalt;
Phlox;
Sage;
Sapphire;
Indigo.

For girls:

Lagoon;
Turquoise;
Magnolia;
Sineva;
Azure;
Morning glory.

Such names, although very beautiful and perfect for blue-eyed Siamese, can be a little difficult to pronounce them constantly in everyday life. These nicknames can be entered into the animal’s passport, and used as a cute abbreviation in everyday life.

How to choose a sonorous name

Once in an unfamiliar house, the kitten looks scared and confused. It requires attention and communication. The first thing to do in this case is to teach the baby to respond to his own name. This way the kitten will adapt faster and begin to understand the intonations of the new owner.

Siamese cats, like all others, respond well to hissing consonants.

To speed up the habituation process, it is recommended to choose a name that consists of sounds that are simple for the kitten. As you know, kittens remember the sounds “k”, “s”, “sh” faster. If you choose a nickname that contains several of these sounds, the baby will learn to respond much faster.

The more concise the nickname, the faster the kitten will master it.

In the case of various “Isabellas,” the owner will have to suffer. Cats simply ignore long, complex and silent words. In such cases, the owner quickly gets tired of calling the pet a long name and involuntarily shortens it. To prevent Josephine from becoming Josey, it is not advisable to choose names that are too descriptive, no matter how beautiful they may seem.

Very touchy animals

The first thing everyone does when a cat appears in the house is give it a name. Not an easy task for owners, despite certain canons in choosing a nickname, they want it to suit their pet.

Popular names for Siamese cats include Isis (goddess of Egypt), Hathor (Moon deity) or Nekhbet (royal name) for girls and Prince, Sultan, Satin or Pharaoh for boys.

Siamese cat

similarity to movie characters or literary characters; taste preferences of the animal; behavioral characteristics; external differences.

A name for a Siamese kitten and how to choose the right one so that the animal likes it - these are questions that many owners ask. It is important to know that only the first three sounds of their name are heard by cats and all other letters are of little importance to them. Monitor your pet's behavior and determine its distinctive features. Features and inclinations can be seen almost from the first days of a kitten’s stay at home.

There are common nicknames for boys of Siamese cats that are still used today, but they are no longer so relevant.

Blue-eyed Siamese cat

There are simple nicknames - Barsik, Baby, Sapphire or Mars, but they have become boring. And bright, catchy nicknames - Anzor, Homer, Germont, Taigor, Edgar and so on.

You can name a Siamese cat whatever you want, although it is worth remembering that he will live with this name for more than one year in your family. Therefore, your animal should like it too.

elongated body proportions; flat skull, long head and neck, straight nose; triangular ears; almond-shaped eyes, located obliquely in relation to the nose; body proportionality and average body size; long limbs, pointed tail; presence of markings on the ears, tail, muzzle and paws.

Very often, cats of this breed show their character from the first days in a new place. Although Siamese kittens are very attached to their owner, they also enjoy constant attention from others and regular communication with them. Therefore, if something does not go according to the cat’s wishes, he can show his bewilderment at what is happening in the appropriate way.

How to accustom a kitten to a nickname

The first attempts to call the baby by name will most likely be unsuccessful. Little kittens, like other animals at a young age, are characterized by extreme inattention and waywardness. The owner’s task is to pronounce the nickname when it is beneficial for the kitten to hear it.

Before you accustom a kitten to a nickname, it is important to establish a trusting relationship with it

You should pay attention to the kitten’s name during:

Feeding. The main trump card of any owner. A hungry pet is a grateful pet. He happily sits in your arms, purrs and does not try to escape. It is during feeding that you should call the fluffy to the bowl, calling him by name. The tone of voice should be as warm as possible. A cat should not perceive its name as a punishment;
Games When entertaining a purring kitten, it is recommended to call it by name as often as possible. At the same time, games should be kind, without sharp teeth and claws;
Calling a kitten by name is effective when it is interested in interacting with you
A fleeting passage. As you move around the house, call the kitten playing nearby by its name. Attract his attention with your voice. This way you can kill two educational birds with one stone. Teach the cat a name and accustom it to interaction.

Until the kitten gets used to the name, it is impossible to use the nickname for punishment. Even if the cat is hanging on the wallpaper near the ceiling, you need to scold him in any words, but not by name. Experienced owners recommend coming up with a special “evil” word that is unlike others spoken. For example, a loud hiss or the standard “shoot”.

Aggressively pronouncing the name when punishing can scare the kitten away from this combination of sounds

What not to do:

Saying a name in an irritated mood;
Change the nickname to affectionate nicknames until the kitten remembers the main one;
You should not call your pet with a simplified “kys-kys”, otherwise he will ignore his name.

Features of choice in purebred animals

In the case of purebred cats, popular names are often dictated by the requirements of the pedigree, the national epithet in the name of the breed and its color. In some cases, names are transformed into two- and three-syllable constructions indicating famous ancestors from whom the family tree is traced. The most popular nicknames can be a simple diminutive version of any of the words of the construction, and it itself cannot be pronounced.

British gray cats, which have a slightly smiling face and large round eyes that create the impression of eternal surprise, are not very affectionate and do not like to be picked up. For such a cat, one begs for names: Lord, Balthazar, Gray, Prince, Sax, Rex, Gabriel, Sigrid, Laertes or Maximus, Patrick, Salazar, with the inevitable addition of First, Second, or Third, or even in Latin - Primus, Quintilian, Patrician. Oddly enough, sometimes owners have poor imagination and call the cat a Russian name like Dymok or Fluff, which is completely inappropriate to the character or characteristics of the breed. When choosing a name for a purebred cat, you should prefer a polysyllabic foreign one or at least a title - Marquis, Duke, Rex or Chevalier. The affectionate form will come in communication. The same rules apply to blue British cats.

Names for Scottish boys' cats are usually chosen whimsically, taking into account everything that comes to mind when mentioning their homeland of Scotland, combining several distinctive features. The following names are always relevant for a Scottish cat: Lion, Liam, Garfield, Arnie, Silver, Watson, Walker, Daniels, Whiskey, Rob, Holmes, Gray, Bernard, Logan and Paul. The Russian eponym must be added taking into account the English translation. If the cat, for example, is smart (Paul) or dexterous (Logan), it’s easy to add a word with a hint of love and irony - Velvet, Velvet, Veniamin (broom), Diamond or Chocolate. And the third component is a matter of love and affection - Lyubchik, Medok, Honey, Peach, Belyashik or Behemoth.

But there is no way to call a Siamese cat by a Russian name. These are aristocrats among cat aristocrats, often the smartest of purebred cats, the most independent and at the same time capable of strong attachment to their owner or mistress. They are usually given names that are not so much original as reflecting character and disposition or a mysterious and mysterious historical affiliation. They are characterized by the names Luxor, Esfahan, Siam, Lalaj, Simon, Pharaoh, Phuket, Marcus. Ernest Hemingway is credited with the quote, “A Siamese cat is the best thing that can happen to a person.” Therefore, the name Ernest for a Siamese boy will also be wonderful.

How to name a Siamese cat - TOP 10 original nicknames

You cannot call a cat an offensive or abusive word, this can negatively affect the fate of the animal. Having chosen a cat name, you should call the cat several times. If a wayward pet shows interest, begins to respond, and runs to the owner, it means he liked the nickname.

Character

Siamese have extremely high intelligence, they are distinguished by their quick wit and well-developed mind, they learn quickly and are easy to train. But thanks to their insight, they can manipulate their owners - scream, press for pity, or get their way, starving you to death. Their voice is quite loud. It is better to educate them from childhood, teaching them order and patience.

Independence and pride make their character unique and not very easy. They are temperamental and energetic, with pronounced predatory habits. In case of psychological trauma or improper upbringing, they can become angry and aggressive. We advise you not to leave them alone for a long time, this also does not have the best effect on their nervous system.

Cats are very loyal to their owner, often following him around the house and watching what he does. They are talkative and can meow with dozens of different intonations. You should not impose yourself on them, because they do not like cuddling and excessive tenderness. When they are in the mood for cuddles, they will come over on their own.

It is better not to have other pets - Siamese are very jealous. They will fight and be offended at each other. They are also suspicious of guests and take a long time to get used to before communicating. They are most often neutral towards children, but can scratch if they are hurt.

They feel great both in an apartment and in a private house. You need to carefully monitor their skin and do not let it out onto the balcony or street in cold weather - this can cause it to darken. It sometimes undergoes such changes due to age.

Important information

The difficulties that arise when choosing a nickname for your kitten are understandable, since it is difficult to do it right away without thinking. Moreover, choosing names for Siamese cats for girls is a serious matter and does not require haste. Therefore, you need to think carefully and:

select several possible options;
