Viste du at siamesere er mørkere på ørene fordi de er kaldere? Lurer du på hvorfor Siameserkattunger er hvite ved fødselen og får sin maske etterhvert? Her har du svaret:
This gene is heat sensitive, the cooler the area, the darker the colour. Which explains why a Siamese has dark extremities such as the face, tail & legs. The body being the warmest part of the cat remains lighter in colour. You will notice your Siamese get darker in the winter months, especially if your Siamese is an indoor/outdoor cat. Siamese cats are white at birth, this is due to being in the constant warmth of the mothers womb. This colouring varies from Siamese to Siamese.
