The cinnamon Siamese cat is new to the Siamese breed standard and known by very few people outside the community of breeders.
Many people worldwide likely have this rare Siamese cat but would never be able to identify it since they don’t know this variety exists.
Therefore, you would not find much if you tried to get information about this cat online.
Known by some in the community as acromelanism, a colorpoint is a form of albinism that is temperature-dependent and defines the pigmentation pattern of a cat.
This genetic pigmentation is derived primarily from Siamese cats and has been popular in Asia since the 8th century. However, it wasn’t until the 19th century that it reached the west.
Cinnamon Points are almost identical to Chocolate Points but have minor differences.
For example, chocolates are born with dark brown points, but a Cinnamon Siamese cat inherits points that have a dark red or brown hue. Their fur color will remind you of cinnamon, where their name comes from.
Since they’re so difficult to find and expensive when it comes to Siamese varieties, Cinnamon Point cats are seldom seen in competitions.
The first time it received the status of champion was in 2009. You must be careful if you want to buy them because they share a lot of traits with other cats, like the Chocolate Point variety.
