Siamese cats are amazing. I'm on my second because the first had some genetic issues. We rescued him around 3-4 years old and got 4 good years with him. I knew something was up when he started spending even more time on my lap than usual (which was a lot) and seemed lower energy, kidney issues are common in them. Got my second about 9 months after he passed when one of my friends rescued a momma and 3 kittens. One didn't make it but the other 2 were strong and my current boy grew up into a big strong kitty. He isn't the lap cat my first one was (yet) but he's still sweet and loving even though he's a brat and a bit of a hellion when he gets worked up lol. Still just a big kitten when he gets going, I'm hoping because his momma was a tabby that he'll be healthier as well. My friend managed to snap a pic of the stray we're pretty sure is his dad, they look super similar lol

I have domestic shorthairs, but I'm loving the kitten stage. I love that one of mine is very vocal. I hadn't ever considered Siamese, but that might be a good breed for me if I ever did find myself adopting a purebred.
