Yep; my daughter also had mice with Siamese-type points.

I have had a ferret before with that kind of marking, but I don't think they are labeled as Siamese.

I could be wrong, but I thought various animals with those markings in dark brown to black were called "seal-point."

I am not sure, I should look up my old ferret book and see if I can find the name. I think you are right. Actually I just looked and it is called color points.

Yeah... same here. I wonder, do they have Siamese Dogs or Siamese Hamsters?

 

[sequoias]

That was Socks?

No, that's not Socks. That was Lightning. She passed away last year. You can see Socks in the picture below her which is her back.

Of course, it's not a breed. It's more like a variety of rat with different markings. There are like hundreds of different varieties.

I never seen a mouse with siamese variety before.

Oh yes, I see. They are interesting. I am really a ferret lover, but now I have a little dog with strong drive to hunt , so I can't keep one for fear it would get hurt.

Awww, I like ferrets too. I do understand that you had to give up due to your dog with desire to hunt.

I love siamese cats. I would like one of my own someday in near future. I had a cat that gave birth to bunch of these kittens when I was young.

I also had a siamese rat but she passed away several months ago.

Here is a picture of her.

Yes I remember your pictures from other thread of last year. I'm very sorry to know about the loss of your beloved one... She is such beautiful animal. How old is she, she died... it could be up to 3 to 4 years... Right?

The "points" refer to the areas that are colored.

The various colors of the points have different names. The points on cats usually are the tail, paws, ears and "mask" of the face.

Some examples of the cat point colors are:

seal (dark brown)

blue

chocolate

lynx (the points are dark stripes)

lilac

Also, the base color can vary.

I've had seal-point, blue-point, and lynx-point cats.
