What innate behavior is the Siamese cats are born with?
Since they can't see, I have noticed that they use their other senses to help them. Hearing is used to find their mother and when the mother purrs it comforts the kittens. They use smell to identify their mother. The kittens hiss at me when I pick them up. The kittens need to eat so they move their face on their mothers tummy until they find a tit to suck on.
This sucking trait may continue for months or years. I have seen an older cat that is sleeping, moving their lips back & forth in a sucking manner. Kitty dreams.
