Blue point Siamese cats

Gentle, loyal and loving, blue point Siamese cats are the home-bodies of the Meezer world. These are really 'purry-furry' cats!

They ask nothing more than to be close to you, to be carried around on your shoulder and to gaze into your eyes (which is quite unusual, as to most cats a direct stare is regarded as aggressive).

They'll purr for hours when they're around the people they love.

Coloring

It has cold-toned, deep slate-grey-bluish points (facial mask, ears, tail, paws, nose leather and paw pads) and bluish-white body fur which, like that of seal points, tends to darken with age.

All members of this point color should have this cold-toned, white fur rather than a warm-toned beige but occasionally you'll find cats with lighter, silvery-blue rather than slate-grey points.

A cat with a rinse?

Doreen Tovey, the much-loved author of 'Cats in the Belfry' and other novels about life with Siamese cats as well as squirrels, horses, donkeys and other animals, describes the blue point as 'a Siamese that has apparently just had a blue rinse'. And she should know - she owned several of them during her lifetime.

The blue point Siamese is probably my favorite of all the Siamese colors (but it would be best not to let my seal point know this ...)

And they do look rather as if someone had just puffed a cloud of blue powder over them, don't you think?
