Description and characteristics of the Thai cat

The Thai cat is of medium size and has a compact and muscular body. It has a typical triangular shaped head with fairly strong round cheeks. Its ears are large and rounded at the tip. One of the main characteristics of the Thai cat is the color of its almond-shaped eyes placed at an angle: they are an intense and luminous blue. He also has a slight squint. Its legs are also muscular and end in massive oval paws. The tail of the Thai cat is long and thick.

 We also recognize this cat by its pale color coat and its colored hair tips. It is a so-called "colorpoint" cat, meaning that its extremities (ears, muzzle, legs and tail) are of a darker and more contrasting color than the rest of its body. This appearance is the result of a genetic mutation. Its short coat is dense and silky. It is most often white but it can also be black, blue, chocolate or cream.

Origin of the Thai cat

As its name suggests, the Thai cat is native to Thailand, formerly called Siam. Because of its rare appearance (hair with colored tips and blue eyes), it was a highly sought-after and prized cat in Thai temples and in the royal court. From the same family as the Siamese, it is often called "old type or traditional Siamese cat". The Thai cat was imported by the English in Europe in the second half of the 19th century. This breed was officially recognized in the 1990s.

Character and behavior of the Thai cat - Who is it for?

It is a very intelligent and obedient cat whose character is close to that of the Siamese. He is also very affectionate and very attached to his master. The Thai cat is energetic, lively and loves to play. It is very sociable and adapts to all types of families, especially those with children, as long as attention is paid to it. He also accepts very well the presence of other cats at his side.

 The Thai cat has the particularity, compared to other breeds of cats, to be very talkative. It has indeed the possibility to emit many vocalizations in the form of hoarse meows to the point of being considered too noisy for some.

 

How to take care of your Thai cat: its needs

The short hair of the Thai cat does not require any particular care except a weekly brushing. This cat only needs company and cuddles. It does not tolerate solitude and needs to be stimulated constantly. The Thai cat is an indoor cat but it is happier if it can have a garden or, at least, a balcony to exercise.

An industrial food based on good quality croquettes is very well suited for Thai cats who do not really appreciate human food. Like all cats, his food must be balanced, rich and varied.

 

The health of the Thai cat

Due to inbreeding problems, Thai cats are predisposed to genetic diseases such as hydrocephalus, a condition caused by an increase in the volume of the cerebral ventricles due to too much cerebrospinal fluid. This breed of cat can also suffer from retinal atrophy, a disease that destroys the retina of the eye, and heart failure.
