Summary
About American Bobtail
American Bobtails are medium to large, sturdy cats with a natural short tail and wild, bobcat‑like look. Affectionate, social, and “dog‑like,” they enjoy fetch, harness walks, and greeting guests. Intelligent escape artists, they need enrichment, secure housing, and regular grooming.
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.
