Korean Bobtail
Introduction of the Korean Bobtail cat breed

Korean Bobtails are known around the world for their good luck-bringing bobbed tails and expressive faces. They are natural mousers and make for excellent companions with their outgoing personalities. These cats were similar to Manx cats from the Isle of Man, but they were an entirely different breed inhabiting the Korean peninsula for many years.

Korean Bobtails are known for having a longer and more lanky body than other cats, affording them great agility. Their bobbed tails are their most distinguishing feature, varying tremendously in length from merely a nub to half the length of a normal cat's tail. Their large eyes are often described as expressive and owl-like.

Korean Bobtails can come in a variety of colors and fur types, but the most common is a white coat with black, brown, or reddish-brown patches. These cats are known to be extremely vocal, with a wide variety of meows and chirps.
