The Lynx Point Siamese emerged in the 1940s or 50s as breeders sought to combine the elegant, sleek body of the Siamese with the beautiful tabby stripes. By crossing a Seal Point Siamese with a tabby shorthair, they created this striking pattern that was eventually recognized by major cat registries.
They are a cross between a Siamese and a tabby cat, first appearing in the mid-20th century
In the United States, they are often officially categorized as 'Colorpoint Shorthairs'
The 'lynx' name comes from the tabby markings which resemble the patterns of a wild lynx
Their vocalizations can be very distinctive and loud, just like their Siamese ancestors
