Provide plenty of stimulation

Siamese cats are very intelligent and can get bored quickly. Be sure to give them plenty of toys to play with and some space to explore.

And, if they can’t find a toy, they’ll hunt hair ties, cords, straws, and other random things around the house and bring them to you!

Siamese cat care bonus tip: Also, a cat tree is an excellent investment for any Siamese cat owner.

Give your Siamese cat plenty of attention

Another important siamese cat care tip is to give them plenty of attention. Siamese cats are very social creatures and love to be around people.

Be sure to spend some time each day playing with your Siamese and providing them with the affection they crave. If you don’t, they will stalk you and give you a death stare until you do!

Sometimes they will nip at your legs and say, ” Hey, pet me now” in cat language. Other times, they will seek out your hands to force a pet or head butt you for some lovin’.

Provide them with a good diet

A Siamese cat’s diet is important for their overall health. Be sure to give them food high in protein and low in carbohydrates. You should also avoid giving them too much milk, which can cause stomach upset.

Be sure to portion their food out each day, so they don’t overeat and become overweight. Obesity is a serious health concern for cats and can lead to many other problems down the road.

Siamese cat care bonus tip: Some siamese enjoy drinking running water from the sink, so you may want to get a water fountain for them to use.

Keep their litter box clean

Siamese cats are very particular about their bathroom habits and will not use a dirty litter box.

Be sure to scoop it out at least once a day and change the litter completely every week or so. If your Siamese starts having accidents outside of the litter box, it is probably because the litter box is too dirty for them. Keeping pee pads outside the litter box can help with this problem.

Siameses also like to keep a clean environment in general, so be sure to vacuum often and tidy up any messes they make right away.

Get regular vet checkups

They should go at least once a year for a wellness exam and more often if they have any health concerns. Be sure to keep up with their vaccinations and give them monthly heartworm and flea/tick prevention.

Let your Siamese cat sleep with you

Siamese cats can become very attached to you. If you lock them out of your room at bedtime, they may become destructive insistently knock or scratch at the door until you let them in.

They may also try to sleep on your head or curl up against your face. If this is too annoying for you, consider getting them their own bed. But most siamese owners love snuggling with their fur baby at night and wouldn’t have it any other way.

Brush their coat

Siamese cats have short hair, which is easy to maintain with a weekly brushing. However, they shed seasonally (usually twice a year) and will benefit from being brushed more often during these times.

Be sure to use a soft-bristled brush or comb and go slowly, so you don’t upset them. You may want to give them a treat afterward to let them know they did a good job!

Have them fixed if don’t plan to breed

If you don’t plan to breed your Siamese, be sure to have them spayed or neutered. This will help reduce their chances of getting certain diseases and help with behavioral issues such as spraying and aggression.

It will also help keep the population of homeless cats down, which is always a good thing!

Keep your Siamese cat inside

While Siamese cats can be trained to walk on a leash, it is generally best to keep them inside.

This is for their own safety as they are not very good at defending themselves against predators and can easily become prey themselves. It also protects them from diseases and parasites that they can pick up outdoors.

Final Thoughts on Siamese Cat Care

Siamese cats are some of the most popular breeds in the world, and for good reason – they’re beautiful, regal-looking animals that make great companions. But taking care of a Siamese can be a lot of work. By following the Siamese cat care tips above, you can be sure that your Siamese cat will be happy and healthy for years to come!
