Why is the face of Siamese cats darker when the weather is colder? Everyone's impression of it is the impression of a coal digger with a black face. Of course, it is also easy to be remembered by many parents because of its special appearance. Especially this black face has captured the hearts of many men, women and children of all ages. But many parents are also very puzzled, why Siam's black face is fine in summer, and why is it black like coal in winter?
The Siamese cat originated from Thailand and is currently a popular cat breed in China. The puppet cat is a bit similar, so that many people can't tell the difference between the Siamese cat and the point color puppet cat. The Siamese cat and the point color puppet cat have a very significant feature, that is As the temperature drops, the accent color blocks on their bodies will get darker and darker, causing Siamese cats to become completely blackfaced during the colder seasons. So why do Siamese cats turn black?
The tyrosine that controls their synthesis has also changed, making them darker and darker when the weather is cold. So this makes the Siamese cat black in some places, but not in other places. For example, its face and tail are relatively dark because of the influence of tyrosinase, and other places have little influence, so other places are not too dark. And they only get darker when it gets colder.
However, the change of skin color of Siamese cats will not affect the body, nor is it any disease, parents do not need to worry. So do you love such a distinctive Siamese cat?
