The Oriental Shorthair cat shares common roots with the Siamese breed. It was developed in the mid-20th century in the United Kingdom and the United States by crossing Siamese cats with other shorthaired breeds. The breeders' goal was to create a cat with the appearance of a Siamese but with a variety of coat colors. In 1977, the breed was officially recognized.

Caring for an Oriental Shorthair cat is relatively easy due to its short coat. Brushing once or twice a week is enough to remove dead hairs and maintain a healthy shine. Bathing is recommended only when necessary. It's also important to keep the ears and teeth clean and to trim the claws regularly. Their diet should be balanced, taking into account their active lifestyle.
