Meow 1: The History and Characteristics of a Lynx Point Siamese

Starting from the 1940s, where, the cross-breeding had begun but it was not that serious a business. 20 years later, the breed officially appeared. The lynx Siamese came to be from accidental breeding of a purebred seal point Siamese with a domesticated tabby. The kitten from this mating was then crossed with another purebred Seal Point cat, resulting in the first Seal Tabby Point Siamese cat. Siamese and Tabbies, the perfect mating for a special distinctive cat with beautiful markings on their body,  which is similar to that of the wild lynx, but they are no way linked to each other.

But that’s not their only characteristic; the grace of their body is way above that. The lynx point Siamese cat is known to have well-defined stripes mostly around their legs, eyes, and cheeks, and their tails are marked with various rings of color. The body color of a kitten lynx point would be mostly pale but it would also start to darken with age hence showing off the stripes while remaining in the same range of colors to the other Siamese breed. Did you fall for their charm? Not yet?

Then, how about being in a variety of colors especially apricot, cinnamon, red, caramel apart from their four major points blue, lilac, seal, and chocolate. These cats have an “M” shaped marking on their forehead along with spotted whisker pads, while their ears are mostly outlined with the color of the stripes on the face. The central area is mostly pale colored that would at times look like a thumbprint. So elegant right!
