Overview

Korat

The Korat is one of the oldest and most treasured cat breeds from Thailand, where they are known as "Si-Sawat" (the color of the Sawat seed) and considered living symbols of good fortune. With their heart-shaped face, luminous green eyes, and shimmering silver-blue coat, Korats are rare gems of the cat world — intensely bonded to their owners and deeply sensitive to their environment.

Known for their distinctive pom-pom-like bobbed tails and powerful, muscular builds, these cats were originally skilled hunters and fishers.
