What kind of cats are these?

Can someone help and tell me what kind of cat I have?  They are brothers...

I'm not an expert but they look at least part Siamese. Beautiful kitties! Their temperments might also give you a hint regarding breed background. (Most cats don't have any purebred ancestry, but yours look like they might actually, at least to my newbie eye.)

Were there more siblings?  Do you know if more were points and their looks?   Do you know what the parents did look alike?

I didn't see their parents because I got them from a lady who works in a factory. She saw them there and put in a box..feeding them soft rice and water...and they live practically for a couple of months in a box....actually she found 4 kittens..but 1 got away from the box and another 1 died....She did not like to take care of the kittens...so posted it online....and I replied and we met up and gave these bundle of joys....

I see.  Lets try and analyse.

Siamese ancestry is surely quite recent, deeming from their overall shape.   As they are in Thailand, it was probably the original "old type" siamese, the real thing, the maewkaew, its thai name. Nowdays called often for Thai, not the modern siamese, very sleek with  prolonged muzzle.

Second, as one of the kittens is not point  (he is a bicolor, a "tuxedo"), the parents couldnt both be  pointed / siameses.

Several combinations are possible, from none of them a point, both parents being just carriers of the point gene - it will give about 1 kitten of four being point. The rest can have any look, usually as parents looks.

through Into  1 pointed parent and one carrier of the point gene.  It will give half kittens points, the rest non pointed carriers.

we know also, both parents must have been very healthy and sound, of a very sound genetical construction, both physically and mentally.

Otherwise they wouldnt survive two months in a box, eating essentially just rice and water, and still be sound healthy kittens bundles of yoy.    Im sure they are grateful for you saving them from there.

But unless this lady factory worker was a better owner than you hint - they must be VERRY robust to survive unharmed such a mistreatment....

Cats MUST have animal proteins and fats as their main diet.

Some rice as a small part of their diet is OK and even good, but not as the main part...

Congrats and good luck for your pretties!

Yes...they are well fed now....but they only like wet cat foods..they dont like to eat the dry ones. I had them checked by a Vet the following day I have them. The vet sprayed them for fleas and gave them 7 days antibiotic....

This is how they look like when we picked them up
And these are the picture of them 4...sent to me by the lady from the factory who gave them to me...

Wet cat food is almost always of better quality than dry cat food, so its just to proceed with that!   

There are also some human foods useful for cats too, so you can fill up some, to give them more variation.

goat milk, plain youghurt, eggs, especielly the yellow of eggs, and so on...

Good luck!

Thanks much for the info.....really appreciates it..

Oh my goodness.. look at those poor little darlings.

I'm so glad that two of them found you. It's so wonderful you could give them such a good and loving home.

Aww! It looks like one of them cold be a MEkong bobtail
