How much does a Korat cost?

Thailand

The Korat is a rare breed, which explains a purchase price often higher than that of more common cats. The price mainly depends on the seriousness of the breeding, the lineage, the socialization work and the health tests carried out on the breeding cats. It is better to favor a transparent and rigorous breeder rather than an abnormally low offer.

Purchase price

It all depends on where your puppy comes from

In practice, acquiring a Korat mainly involves declared specialized breeders. The rarity of the breed reduces opportunities and can lengthen the waiting time, but it also justifies carefully checking health monitoring, the documents provided and the breeding conditions.
