Siamese cats are extremely social, intelligent, and vocal. They are known for their distinctive meowing and love to "talk" with their owners throughout the day.
These cats form strong bonds with their humans and can be quite demanding of attention. They don't like being left alone for long periods and thrive in homes where someone is usually present.
Siamese cats are highly active and playful, requiring regular mental and physical stimulation. They enjoy interactive toys, puzzle feeders, and games that challenge their intelligence.
They are natural acrobats and climbers, so providing cat trees and high perches is important. Daily play sessions help keep them happy and prevent boredom-related behaviors.
Siamese cats have short, fine coats that require minimal grooming. Weekly brushing is usually sufficient to remove loose hair and keep their coat shiny.
They rarely need baths unless they get into something dirty. Regular dental care, nail trimming, and ear cleaning should be part of their routine maintenance.
