We cant really know, he doesnt even need to be any near siamese ancestry - these point genes may wander througt many generations before they meet anew in an individual, making him a point, a siamese mix...

Almost The only we know  one of the parents must have been a tabby, and I dont think he has any near siamese ancestry - wrong body shape.  But possibly a ragdoll.

How old is Chessy?  he is rather dark for being a siamese mix.  they tend to darken up with years.

Thanks for your response!

He's 14.  I adopted him from a shelter when he was 5.  I really wish I had pics of him as a kitten, I think he would have been sooo adorable.

Looks similar to a lynx point. I cannot tell the eye color, but should have brilliant blue eyes. Beautiful cat no matter what.

Ah 14, it may explain the not so slender body shape.   MY teenager reminds for example of a high preg queen, although from a rather slender breed.   But he can still jump up the table.

Yes, he is a lynx point.   Or tabby point if you want.     :)

Yes he definitely has a belly!  He can still jump pretty high too.

Thanks :)
