Summary
About British Shorthair
British Shorthairs are sturdy, medium‑large cats with round faces, dense plush coats and many colours, best known in blue with copper eyes. Calm, quietly affectionate and suited to indoor or apartment life, they mature slowly and need moderate play, grooming and weight control.
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.
