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.

Skookum

The Skookum is a spirited designer breed that combines the Munchkin's short legs with the LaPerm's distinctive curly coat. The result is a small, confident cat with a bouncy, curly-haired appearance and a personality that far exceeds its compact size. Playful, outgoing, and surprisingly athletic, Skookums bring joy and laughter to any household.
