WHY BECOME A MEMBER?
If you would like to see a very old breed survive, virtually unchanged, and you just happen to love the old-style Siamese cat and its stylish looks, this is the place for you.
Since 2000, this club has been dedicated to preserving the old-style Siamese look, as they appeared when first introduced to this country in the late 1800’s. We wish to preserve the Siamese cat that many members remember them from their youth, in the 1950’s or 1960’s before some breeders developed the “modern” look. This is why every single membership is important to the club.
We are a GCCF affiliated (premier registering body in the UK) area club with international memberships, proudly saying the “world is our area”. Our membership numbers allow us to send a delegate to GCCF Council meetings, ensuring our voice is heard. Your support helps us keep that seat.
We offer an assortment of memberships in the hope that we cater for all level of interest from those who just love the old-style Siamese, to those contemplating breeding for the first time, or those who are well established breeders and long time members of the club. Members receive biannual newsletters, access to a supportive community, and a wealth of experience to draw on.
Our newsletters feature member stories, photos, and insights—funny, heartfelt, and informative. While we champion the old-style Siamese, we welcome all cat lovers. Whether you prefer the traditional or modern look, we believe sharing knowledge benefits all cats.
We follow the GCCF “Standard of Points” for the Siamese cat. It all comes down, at the end of the day, to interpretation of the standard.
