At this time, there are many unscrupulous businessmen who use some special physiological phenomena of crossbred Siamese cats to advertise that they are atavistic cats to raise prices, such as striped Siamese cats, whose eyes are not blue but Siamese cats of other colors, in fact, these Siamese cats are just not pure blood, and there is no difference to the people who really love cats, but when buying Siamese cats, be careful to be deceived by unscrupulous merchants.
