Summary
About Abyssinian
The Abyssinian is a medium, athletic cat with a sleek, ticked coat and large expressive eyes, often likened to a miniature wildcat. Active, intelligent, and social, it thrives on play, training, and family interaction, needs little grooming, and is generally healthy with some testable inherited risks.
About Korat
The Korat is an ancient silver-blue Thai breed with a muscular, heart-shaped outline, large luminous green eyes, and a short, low-shedding coat. Quiet but people-focused, it bonds closely with one or two humans, enjoys interactive play, is highly trainable, and generally robust in health.
