Tomelima Siamese and Orientals
Has this breeder been Cat Kingpin Certified? No See our Certified Breeder Agreement
We joined the Feline Control Council of Victoria in 1977 and began showing Siamese as an interest for the children. We started with a Seal Point Neuter pet and later bought a Blue Torti Point as a friend for him. “Just one litter” was the plan; famous last words as 25 years later I am deeply involved in the Cat Fancy. Our Queens live in the house and we have built an extension on the back of the house for the kittens and as a play area for the Queens and their babies.

Gautama Divine Balinese & Siamese
Has this breeder been Cat Kingpin Certified? No See our Certified Breeder Agreement
We became a registered cattery in 1995, breeding, at that time Balinese, after a short while we also included Siamese so we could increase our gene pool as the Balinese in Australia were very limited, and still are. We also follow a minimal vaccination regime and worm and deflea when needed, not routinely. We only sell entire kittens to small catteries as we feel they can provide the special attention that we wish for our babies.

What are Siamese Cats like?
Siamese cats are known for their affectionate and talkative nature. They are highly intelligent and adapt well to living with other pets, although they may prefer the company of other Siamese cats. If you are considering a Siamese cat as a pet, it’s important to note that they crave human attention and can become anxious when left alone for long periods.
These cats typically weigh between 6 and 10 pounds and can grow up to 10 inches in height. Siamese cats have a distinctive sleek and slender appearance, with their pointy ears, almond-shaped blue eyes, and short, fine coat, which comes in a range of colors, including seal, chocolate, blue, and lilac. Registered Siamese breeders will have kittens for sale with different coat patterns, such as the traditional seal point, blue point, or lynx point.
FAQs when considering Siamese Cats
How much do Siamese Cats cost in Melbourne?
As a sought-after breed, Siamese Cats for sale in Melbourne cost between $400 and $1,200. A cat’s price is based on its pedigree, coat quality, age, health and vaccination history. If an Siamese Cat’s parents are show-winning, they can be even more expensive.
Do Siamese cats have any health issues?
Siamese cats are generally considered to be a healthy breed, but like all cats, they may be prone to certain health issues. Some common health concerns for Siamese cats include dental problems, eye issues (such as crossed eyes or progressive retinal atrophy), and respiratory issues (such as asthma or bronchitis). Siamese cats may also be prone to developing urinary tract issues, so it’s important to provide them with plenty of fresh water and a balanced diet. Regular veterinary check-ups can help detect and treat any potential health issues early.
What should I ask to choose the right Siamese Cat breeder?
While there are many people in Melbourne who claim to be ethical Siamese Cat breeders, not all hold a standard that you can feel great about. Asking some relevant questions about their philosophy will ensure you avoid Siamese Cat breeders that do this only for financial gain, not having the interests of the cats or you in mind. Make sure you ask about:
- Health history of the parents and vaccinations. They should have their first vaccinations by the time they're adopted.
- Whether they've bred their Siamese Cats with other breeds (they should disclose this and it would make it not a purebred lien.
- Have the socialized the kitten among other kittens?
- Do they belong to a Melbourne Siamese Cat breed club? You can ask for references from the club.
Why does it matter if I buy from a registered Siamese Cat breeder?
When you buy from a registered Siamese Cat breeder (with either their local Siamese Cat club, governing body, or TICA/CFA), that ensures that a standard of care and expertise is enforced. You can ask them about a wide range of topics such as the Siamese Cat’s genealogy, the right kitten for you, common health problems with Siamese Cats to look out for. We offer additional registration through our Cat Kingpin Certified program as well, although it's not a replacement for other registrations.

I have had two interests since I was very young… the Internet and cats. I grew up with two lovely cats in my family, Midnight and Chloe. But when I started looking for a cat as an adult, I realized how few reliable resources there are for finding ethical breeders. So I combined my Internet skills and cat knowledge to create Cat Kingpin, the #1 resource for cat breeders online. Have a question or suggestion for my list? You can reach me here.
