The traditional Apple-head Siamese The original Siamese was imported Siam (also known as Thailand). His face and body are round, his bones are big and he is heavy. The traditional Siamese was given the nickname “Apple-head” because his head resembles the shape of an apple. The traditional Siamese also have a dip in the nose that can be seen in profile.
The Classic Siamese The classic Siamese was the second Siamese that was imported from Siam. He is a medium-size Siamese, his head is wedge-shaped with a little bit more elongated body, tail and legs then the traditional Siamese. The classic Siamese also has a dip on the nose, but UN like the traditional Siamese, it can hardly be noticed in profile. The Extreme-Wedge Siamese The extreme-wedge Siamese is much more elongated and his appearance is far more extreme then the traditional and classic Siamese. His head is wedge-shaped (triangle shape), extremely sharp and pointed, almost every part in his body is svelte and long: head, neck, tail and legs. His ears are very large and pointed, and his eyes are almond-shaped. This Siamese is the only type that was genetically engineered by humans. Some of the Siamese may have crossed eyes, but that trait is not very common now days, because of the breeding over the years.
