Khaomanee
The Khaomanee (sometimes known as Khao Manee) means White Gem. While new to the Western world, they are an older breed that originated from Thailand. They have a distinctive heart-shaped head, high cheekbones and jewel-like eyes that can be odd-colored, with one being blue and the other yellow, or the eyes may be the same color. Their coats are short and easy to maintain. Find out more about this breed and if the Kahomanee is right for you and your family.
Graceful and curious, Khaomanee cats make wonderful companions. Their eyes may be blue or a mixture of one blue and one green or amber. They have been known to be very calm and relaxed, making them an ideal lap companion. Khaomanees have also been known for being very talkative and verbal – so be prepared for many back-and-forth conversations.
