Siamese Colours and Breed Numbers
Traditional colours that most people recognise are Seal Point,
Blue Point, Chocolate Point and Lilac Point. There are also six other
colours and they are Caramel Point, Cinnamon Point, Fawn Point, Red
Point, Apricot Point and Cream Point. These ten colours are explained in
further detail below. In addition there are also Tabby Points which
can be in any of the colours listed and Tortie Points and Tortie Tabby
Points which can come on any of the colours listed except for Apricot
(see the 'Red Series' section further down the page).
Underneath the photographs below are the GCCF Standard Of Points for each colour and pattern. They should be used in conjunction with the 'General Siamese Type Standard' and the 'Standard List of Withholding Faults' which can be found on the Siamese Standard Of Points page. (in addition the breed standards for TICA and FB/FIFE can also found by visiting the Siamese Standard Of Points page.)

Red Series Siamese Cats
Red series Siamese Cats come in three basic
colours, Red Point, Cream Point and Apricot Point in both sexes. In
addition there are Torties which are nearly always female (occasionally a
male Tortie can be produced but this is a genetic anomaly and they
nearly always prove to be infertile) and can come in all the colours
that are shown above in the 'Traditional Colours' section except
Apricot. (there is no such thing as an Apricot Tortie) The red colour
is controlled by a sex linked gene called the Orange Gene or O. It is a
dominant gene so if the cat has the gene they display it (red cannot be
carried) The O gene is found on the X chromosome. Females have two X
chromosomes and so can have one O gene or two, males have only one X
chromosome and so can only have one O chromosome. If a female has two O
chromosomes she will be Red, Cream or Apricot, if she has only one O
chromosome then she will be a Tortie. A male having one O chromosome is
a Red, Cream or Apricot.
A Red Point is a Seal, Chocolate or Cinnamon that has one copy of the Orange Gene if male or two copies if female.
A Cream is a Blue, Lilac or Fawn that has one copy of the Orange Gene if male or two copies if female.
An Apricot is a Cream which has at least one
set of the Dilute Modifier Gene which modifies the Cream into Apricot
and also. If the cat is female and has at least one copy of the Dilute
Modifier Gene the cat is called a Caramel Tortie.

There should be a solid tip of the pattern colour except in Red, Cream and Apricot Tabby Points where the tip may be pale and in Tortie Tabby Points where it may show tortie markings.
Body - Pale, showing clear contrast with the points as in the equivalent solid-pointed Siamese. Any shading on the body will show the underlying tabby pattern which may be ticked, spotted, mackerel or classic. A Tabby Point should be penalised for shading no more nor less severely than the equivalent solid-pointed Siamese. Any shading should tone with the points. In Tortie Tabby Points both tabby shading and tortie patching, if any, should tone with the points.
