Work has also been done within our cattery to preserve the look and personality of the traditional Siamese cats that originated in Thailand. When the country formerly known as Siam changed its name to Thailand, the traditional version of the Siamese cat also became known as the Thai breed.

Thai cats represent the original or “old style” Siamese that many people recognize today as the apple-head Siamese. While modern Siamese standards in some registries have moved toward a more extreme appearance, our interest lies in preserving the balanced features and classic look of the traditional Thai cat.

When we decided to begin breeding Thai cats, we found that many breeders in the United States had already crossed Thai cats with modern Siamese lines. To maintain the traditional standard, we imported breeding cats directly from Europe and Thailand.
