    I think your article is extremely biased. You come to conclusions that are unfair and short sided. Maybe since English is obviously not your first language you have difficulty expressing yourself but to state, for example, “most domestic cats are not affectionate” is ludicrous. Do you have personal experience with the many types of domestic cats in the world? Try not to be so elitist when writing about Siamese in comparison with mixed breed cats because you’re apt to most of the worlds cat owners angry since most of the worlds cat owners do not own a Siamese.
