I was at a cat show recently and I enjoyed looking at all the beautiful cats, however when I got to the Siamese I was shocked. I know they have pointed heads but these cats were very 'extreme' and ratlike. Surely this is unnatural and uncomfortable? It reminded me of a photo I had seen of a Siamese from the 70s with a much rounder head. I believe these are called Classic or Applehead.
I have heard of other breeds that have been altered over the years, for example Chinchilla and British Shorthair.
What does everyone think about changing the look of breeds? Should the old version be kept, or a 'new look' introduced?
