Thailand has officially recognized five native cat breeds—Wichian Mat, Suphalak, Korat, Khao Manee, and Cong—as part of the nation’s cultural identity. The decision highlights Thailand’s rich heritage, celebrating these traditional breeds for their historic significance, unique traits, and long-standing connection to Thai culture.

1. WICHIAN MAT (Siamese)

Thailand’s most iconic cat, known for its elegant cream coat and striking blue almond-shaped eyes. The Wichian Mat is intelligent, vocal, affectionate, and deeply connected to Thai history, often appearing in ancient manuscripts.

2. SUPHALAK (Burmese)

A rare and culturally treasured breed with a rich reddish-brown coat said to bring good fortune. Suphalak cats are friendly, gentle, and loyal companions admired for their warm personalities and unique coloring.

3. KORAT (Si-Sawad)

A symbol of luck and prosperity, the Korat has a silver-blue coat and bright green eyes. Traditionally gifted to newlyweds for good fortune, this breed is loving, playful, and emotionally expressive.

4. KHAO MANEE

Known as the “White Jewel,” this pure-white cat often has striking odd-colored eyes (blue, gold, or one of each). Khao Manee cats were once kept by royalty and are believed to bring wealth and protection.

5. CONG (Konja)

A sleek, jet-black Thai breed symbolizing elegance and mystery. With golden eyes and a smooth coat, the Cong cat is confident, curious, and known for forming strong bonds with its owners.

BREAKING MEWS! 🇹🇭🐾 Callie, the Queen of Paws Bangkok is happy to declare that Thailand is no longer the land of smiles, it’s the land of purrs. Thai cats are now an official national symbol! Move over elephants, it’s time for Thai cats to reign! 🐈‍⬛

I guess we should get ready for more cat statues, cat souvenirs and maybe even a rule that every citizen must bow to their local feline overlord at least once a day. (Don’t we do that already Callie? 😂)

In Thailand’s city malls, a quiet gesture now supports the country’s many stray animals—free pet food corners discreetly placed near entrances and side corridors, where bowls of kibble and water wait for cats and dogs that wander close. Managed by mall staff and local volunteers, these corners provide small but consistent nourishment for animals that often go unnoticed in urban spaces.

The setups are simple: raised trays with dry food, clean water containers, and sometimes soft mats for brief rest. Tucked beside parking areas, loading zones, or shaded walls, the corners are carefully chosen for safety—far from foot traffic yet easy for animals to reach. Signs are subtle, often with just a paw print symbol or a message in Thai reminding visitors not to disturb the animals.

Mall workers refill the trays daily, and some stores quietly donate pet food as part of their routine. Security guards monitor the spots and often greet familiar furry visitors, creating a calm, respectful environment. On cooler days, small fabric patches or cardboard shelters are added beside the bowls, offering comfort without fanfare.

These corners do more than feed—they weave animals into the daily rhythm of the city without fuss. Shoppers pass by, some pause to refill a bowl, others drop off extra biscuits or offer a soft word. In the heart of busy malls, Thailand has found space for compassion—gently and consistently delivered.
