Summary
About Bombay
The Bombay is a medium-sized, muscular black cat with a glossy, short coat and striking gold to copper eyes. Affectionate and people-focused, it enjoys lap time, moderate play, and soft vocal “conversations.” Intelligent and trainable, it suits indoor living and typically enjoys 12–16 years with good care.
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.
