Yep, they are dogs in funny costumes.
However different Siamese cats are different in personality. Skye is not a typical Siamese, does not do the Siamese talking or investigating what you are doing all the time, following you everywhere. Skye is 3/4 Siamese, her mother is papered purebred while her father was half Siamese half golden tabby but he had seal point markings but has those tabby stripes that Skye now has.
My first cat, Bambi, was cross eyed seal point, the love of my life, lived to be 15 and half years old before I had to put her down for kidney failure. She talked, followed and goes places with me and rides up on my shoulder when I was out riding or doing things around the barn.
My second and third Siamese, the second one Lily was a seal point but one day she took off for good, never did find her. I was sick. Third cat was a blue point, Katie Kat, died unexpectly at the age of five years old, probably due to heart worms because it was sudden. She was feeling fine, nothing out of sorts, ate well but that one early morning, she screamed that hubby jumped out of bed at two o clock in the morning, found her dead right on the spot entering our bedroom. We didn't have an austopsy done on her because hubby didn't have alot of money to spare. However within a week, hubby mustered enough money just to get me another kitten, Skye, entered in our lives.
I will always have Siamese cats, no other breed would fit the bill to my personality and my love for the breed and its beauty and its personality. There is never a Siamese cat I hated even one could have hated me.
