Summary
About Egyptian Mau
The Egyptian Mau is a rare, naturally spotted, medium‑sized cat with a muscular, athletic build and vivid green almond eyes. Loyal and sensitive, it bonds closely with one person, is active, agile, and vocal in a soft, musical way, needing regular play, gentle handling, and low‑stress routines.
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.
