Adopting a Colorpoint Shorthair

Frequently asked questions about acquiring an Colorpoint Shorthair - the pros and cons of adopting versus going through a breeder, and associated costs.

It typically costs $50 to $300 to adopt a Colorpoint Shorthair from a shelter or rescue organization. This adoption fee often covers an initial exam, vaccines, microchipping, preventatives, and spay/neuter. Conversely, it can be prohibitively expensive to buy a Colorpoint Shorthair from a breeder. Depending on their breeding, they can cost $800 to $1,500.

The easiest way to adopt a Colorpoint Shorthair is through a rescue that specializes in Colorpoint Shorthairs or Siamese cats and varieties of Siameses. A great place to start is with a breed search on Adopt a Pet, which will show you all the available Colorpoint Shorthairs in your search radius.

Colorpoint Shorthair fun facts

Fun Facts:

Even though this breed is technically Siamese, Siamese breeders were so upset about these colors diluting the pedigree that an entire other name and breed was established: the Colorpoint Shorthair.

Technically, the Colorpoint Shorthair is a hybrid, though there is little genetic influence of anything other than Siamese.

Only some associations consider the Colorpoint Shorthair as separate from the Siamese breed.
