Summary
About Russian Blue
Russian Blues are medium, athletic cats with a plush, silver tipped blue coat and vivid green eyes. Gentle and reserved with strangers, they are deeply affectionate with their families. Intelligent and observant, they enjoy routine, quiet homes, interactive play, and minimal grooming.
About Thai
The Thai is a moderate, old-style Siamese with a muscular medium build, blue eyes, and low-maintenance pointed coat. Social, vocal, and intelligent, it craves daily interaction, play, and climbing. Generally healthy, it may face PRA, HCM, and dental issues, so regular vet care is important.
