As one might expect, the Siamese version of the cat has brilliant blue eyes, and dark points like a Seal-point or Chocolate-point Siamese cat, with dark markings on its legs, ears, tail, and its face.

Several mods already exist that make minor changes to the playable cat, like changing its breed or color, like this
