Summary
About Cymric
The Cymric is a medium, muscular, longhaired Manx-type cat, usually tailless with a rounded, rabbit-like rump and strong hind legs. It has a plush double coat, comes in many colours, is playful, intelligent, loyal, and people-oriented, but needs careful monitoring for tail and spine issues.
About Siamese
A sociable, talkative and active cat from Thailand with a long, sleek body, blue eyes and distinctive point markings. The Siamese often seeks close contact and wants to be involved in everyday family life. It needs daily companionship, play, opportunities to climb and safe places to rest. Its coat is easy to care for, while health records and a carefully planned social environment are important considerations when choosing a cat.
