Buy a Siamese in the UK

When buying a Siamese kitten, ensure the breeder tests for progressive retinal atrophy (PRA DNA test) and screens for amyloidosis (liver condition) in their lines. Visit the breeder to meet the kittens and at least one parent. Siamese cats are extremely social — kittens should be well-socialised and confident. Consider whether you can handle their vocal nature and need for constant companionship before committing. If you work long hours, consider getting two Siamese kittens so they can keep each other company.
