Siamese kittens are actually born completely white and gradually develop their iconic coat colors as they age. This is due to a temperature-sensitive gene called the Himalayan gene, which causes the fur to darken on the cooler parts of the cat's body. The extremities, such as the ears, face, paws, and tail, are the coolest parts and therefore develop darker coloration, while the warmer body parts remain lighter in color. This unique genetic trait adds to the allure of Siamese cats and makes their coat patterns a dynamic and captivating feature.
