Summary
About Bengal
The Bengal is an athletic, medium‑large cat with a wild, leopard‑like spotted or marbled coat and low‑maintenance, silky fur that may glitter. Highly active, intelligent, vocal, and people‑oriented, it enjoys water, interactive play, training, and needs substantial daily mental and physical stimulation.
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.
