The Siamese cat is one of several varieties of cats native to Thailand (known as Siam before 1939). The original Siamese became one of the most popular breeds in Europe and North America in the 19th century. [1] Siamese cats have a distinctive colourpoint coat, resulting from a temperature-sensitive type of albinism.
The gene that causes the color to be restricted to the points is a recessive gene; therefore, the general population of the cats of Siam were largely self-colored (solid). When the cats from Siam were bred, the pointed cats were eventually registered as Siamese, while the others were referred to as "non-blue eyed Siamese" or "foreign shorthair".
The Balinese is a long-haired breed of domestic cat with Siamese-style point coloration and sapphire-blue eyes.
