We have a cat who is half siamese. While she is extremely affectionate towards people, she hates all of our other cats and is very aggressive towards them. She constantly growls, hisses, and attacks them if they get anywhere close to her. She just absolutely hates all other cats. She's been like this ever since we got her as a kitten.
Is this typical with siamese cats?

some cats are just more hostile than others- one of mine grew up to be pretty hostile towards other animals, but the cat she grew up with grew up to be fine with other animals. every cat has a personality that is partially set in stone, and partially affected by early socialization, and it sounds like your cat is just bratty by nature.
i had a siamese years ago, and she was a sweetheart.

No, they aren't all like that. It was actually my Siamese cats that were the first two to accept my newest kitten.

Definitely not. I've met 40+ Siamese cats and it was rare for any to be mean. It depends on each individual cat.

I have a cat I suspect has Siamese lineage (she has the head shape and an eye trait exclusively in Siamese) and she's the friendliest thing very to pretty much anyone. She greets people at the door and is trusted by all of our other cats because she is never hostile towards them (unless she is playing, in which case that's obvious). She behaves more like a dog or a ferret than a cat lmao. So yeah no, not all Siamese are jerks. There's no possible way an entire breed can be jerks.

Every siamese cat I've ever met has had a bad temper, so I'd say yes.

Siamese generally pick one person and are completely affectionate and loyal to them. They could care less about the rest of the world. I've dealt with LOTS of Siamese (I work in a Vet clinic and shelter) and while they have different personalities, the loyalty remains to one human that they choose.

siamese cats are generally just loud and like to say what's on their mind, so it's likely she just likes to show she doesn't like other cats

I work at a rescue and every tortie/calico I've met has been friendly. Some are shy, and some don't get along with other cats, but they are never mean. If they ever were, it would be a rare occurance.

Yeah, she's really nice to people. We've never had a problem with her being mean to any of us. She loves to cuddle and she's super friendly towards everyone. Just not other cats lol.
@spottedstar3137 yeah, she's super loud. she screams a lot whenever other cats go by her.

I was raised by my grandparents to hate cats, and the cat that actually made me like cats was a calico named Fat Cat. She was the sweetest thing cat I've ever met, rivaled only by my current cat.
