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.
