Color Point Photographic Descriptions Of The Siamese & Balinese Cat Breeds:

This page features Siamese and Balinese cat photographs that show what the cat’ color points look like as they grow into adult hood. Please note, these cats are NOT available for sale, their photo’s are used purely as informative and educational tools to help you visually understand what your kitten of a particular color point variety will grow up to like like in terms of their color point and markings. At one point in time there used to be around 30 different color points and marking varieties in the Siamese breed for registration and showing. However, over the years those numbers have dwindled down to four with most registries, and those four color points are Seal Point, Chocolate Point, Blue Point, and Lilac point. Most registries recognize that there are color pattern varieties in the color points, and they allow them for registration and even shows. Even though there are many more color patterns in the breed possible which vary registry to registry, I am only including the most popular color points and color markings within the USA, UK, and Switzerland. A very special thanks to those breeders who allowed me to use their photographs for this page in my effort to highlight the varieties in the Siamese and Balinese breeds, those breeders are: Louis Azcarate, of Permes Cats in WA, USA., Dr. Mirjam Kessler of Blue Moon Cattery, in Auw, Switzerland.
