Which cat breed is right for you?
The Khao Manee — meaning "White Gem" — is an ancient Thai breed mentioned in the Tamra Maew (Cat Book Poems) dating back to the 14th century, where it was considered a royal cat bringing good fortune. This medium-sized breed weighs 6–11 pounds and has a sleek, athletic build with a heart-shaped face and high cheekbones. Their coat is exclusively pure white and short, and their most captivating feature is their jewel-like eyes — which can be blue, gold, or odd-eyed (one of each), with the odd-eyed variety being the most prized.
Khao Manees are outgoing, confident, and highly social cats that love to be the center of attention. They are playful and energetic, forming strong bonds with their families and getting along well with children and other pets. Their vocal, curious nature and striking appearance make them captivating companions that demand — and deserve — plenty of interaction.

The Scottish Fold traces its origins to a single barn cat named Susie, found in Perthshire, Scotland, in 1961 — the first documented cat with the breed's signature forward-folding ears caused by a natural cartilage mutation. This medium-sized cat weighs 6–13 pounds, has a round head, large round eyes, and a stocky, well-padded body. Scottish Folds come in both longhair and shorthair varieties, in virtually every color and pattern including tabby, solid, bicolor, and calico.
Scottish Folds are sweet, easygoing cats known for their quirky habit of sitting in odd positions — including the "Buddha sit" with legs stretched out and paws resting on their belly. They are moderately active and enjoy interactive play without being hyperactive. Gentle with children and amiable with other pets, they adapt well to most living situations.
