Was a gorgeous gray delight and incredibly smart. We lived in the city and he would regularly follow me to the local market and wait at the front entrance for me to exit and then follow me back home. He loved all the attention he received from people passing by while he waited for me. My local neighbors loved him as well and referred to him as Ashley the “dog cat”. Never had another cat as intelligent as that korat. I’ve had many cats since then, but he was one of a kind.
