Siamese, Burmese, Thaicat? - Norththailand

[starcatcher]

I'm searching for a place, where i can get a classic Siamese Cat or 2. So not the modern "style" but that kind of Siamese standard from the 1950's and 1960's, which is called now "Thaicat". And this - if possible - in the triangle Nakhon Sawan, Chiang Mai, Mae Sot. 100 per cent sure not from the Chatuchak market.

I found some older threads on this, but one of the links there (cats talad or something like this) had the last update in 2007, other links not working anymore or do not have the needed infos.

It's not neccessary that it has to be a breeders address. Preferable (than I'm helping a little bit at least) the cats can also come from a temple or someone who wants to get rid of it. But it is important, that they are real Thaicats (blue eyes) because of their character

Thanks a lot

The pet shop on the ring road in Chiang Mai deals in Siamese and Persians and we have bought 2 of the former about a year ago and both are fine. Comments from my earlier thread:

Just to wrap this up the wife has found the cats she was looking for here in Chiang Mai.

Plan A was for 2 Siamese but when we visited Rak Sat's shop between Carrefour and Makro (thanks Nienke) they had 2 Persians there and the wife insisted on taking one of them. We then visited Rak Sat's farm at the owners invitation which is out in Mae Tang just to the north of Chiang Mai and the Siamese we have been looking for was curled up with mum. Wife selected one of the 3 but it will be another 4 weeks before they allow them to leave which is fine.

If anyone is interested they still have the other Siamese kittens available (both white - we reserved the fawn one) and plenty of persians varying from 1 day old to something like 6 weeks plus about a dozen dogs of 2 types which appeared to be cocker spaniel and a smaller terrier and certainly healthy looking and lively.

Cost we were quoted for the Persian in the shop was 5,000 baht and the siamese 2,500. No idea on dogs for either price or availability.
