Whoa, sciencediet! That's a pretty high standard of stray cat you have in your area! That is a very classy looking purebred Chocolate Point Siamese! No wonder he rules the roost, he knows he's Royalty.
I bred and showed Blue and Lilac Points for 15 years or so B.C. (Before Children). Here is our current youngest Lilac Point baby:
Naturally she is telling me what to type . . . she is two years old and outrageously bossy to the two older and more respectable Blue Points. My big BP male makes a huge deal out of hissing at her to keep up his dignity, but I have come home unexpectedly several times and surprised them cuddled up in the sheepskin cat bed with their paws around each other. BUSTED! :-D

Rome, I forgot to say that ALL purebred show type Siamese look that thin - it's their natural state. Most of them eat like starving longshoremen and they're still that skinny - they burn all the calories off running around the walls at about the four foot mark. At least that's what ours do.

Considering the circumstances, I don't know much about Siamese cats. Sam showed up almost five years ago and is tiny but deceptively heavy and very active. Everybody loves her and she loves them. I've had a lot of cats and have four now and they're all amazing, but Sam is out of sight.

AnAmericanMother, what's your cattery? Do you show CFA or TICA?
I agree "she" - Sam - certainly appears to have male enhancements, I thought she was a boy too, but, she looks for all the world like a Blue point, with albeit a lovely clear coat. You rarely see points that well matched and dark in a choccy. Could be the photo coloring deceiving me though.
I think her ears look nice and big, it is difficult to judge size in a profile pic but her profile looks straight as a die.
sciencediet, much as I'd like to know who bred her, I wouldn't suggest you go looking to hard, if I was the breeder I'd still be searching for that pretty cat. btw, is she a chocolate? or a blue?
