Frequently Asked Questions

Why are Siamese cats so vocal?

Siamese cats have been selectively bred for centuries and are naturally communicative. They use their distinctive loud, low-pitched voice to express needs and engage with their owners.

Do Siamese cats need a companion?

Siamese cats are highly social and can become lonely and depressed if left alone frequently. A second cat, ideally another Siamese, is recommended.

How long do Siamese cats live?

Siamese cats are one of the longest-lived breeds, typically living 15-20 years with proper care.

Are Siamese cats hypoallergenic?

No cat is truly hypoallergenic, but Siamese produce fewer allergens than many breeds due to their short, fine coat.
