Burnthwaites Oriental and Siamese Cats

We are breeders of Oriental and Siamese cats and kittens based in Hampshire. We hope you enjoy reading through our website and also enjoy meeting all of our Siamese and Oriental cats and kittens. We occasionally have both Oriental and Siamese kittens for sale to both show and pet homes and for more information please visit our kitten page.

Our cattery name is registered with the GCCF. We are very proud of all our cats and so for this reason we are equally proud to say that all our kittens will carry our GCCF registered prefix Burnthwaites.

Our aim as cat breeders is to breed cats and kittens of good show type but with the health, temperament and socialisation of our kittens being of paramount importance. So for this reason our cats are pets first and foremost and live indoors with us as part of a loving family environment.

We love both showing and breeding our cats and we are lucky enough to have met some great people who share our passion for this hobby. We enjoy showing our beautiful cats with the GCCF. We are both active members of the cat fancy and enjoy our work on cat club committees and as delegates to the Siamese Cat Joint Advisory Committee. Ross is also a judge of Oriental and Siamese cats and we can both often be seen at various cat shows whilst Ross is judging.

Oriental and Siamese Cats and Kittens

Oriental and Siamese cats are long and slender medium sized cats that are extremely intelligent and can also be very demanding. Once you have been owned by a Siamese or Oriental cat you will never settle for any other breed. They love human companionship and do well in pairs rather than being the only cat in the home.

Oriental and Siamese cats are often bred together and produce mixed litters of both Oriental kittens and Siamese kittens which is very acceptable and often desirable by cat breeders. Both Siamese and Oriental cats are from exactly the same breed group and gene pool. The only differences are the eye colour and the coat colour. The type, conformation and temperament are all exactly the same.

Siamese cats are what are referred to as pointed cats and have blue eyes and a cream body with the darker base colour restricted to their tail, legs, ears and face (their points). Oriental cats have green eyes and are not pointed cats like the Siamese so do not have their base colour restricted and with the exception of torties, bicolours and tabbies are the same colour all over.

If you are looking for a highly intelligent pet that is very active, extrovert, sometimes vocal and extremely loving and affectionate then perhaps an Oriental or Siamese cat is the breed you are looking for. If you are looking for a much more sedate and easy going type of cat that only really wants to know you at meal times and is not much fuss really then you might be better considering a completely different breed of cat entirely.
