In recent years, the Korat was pictured on a postage stamp in Thailand. An example hangs in the city of Korat&#8217;s post office.<\/p>\n<p>Korats first appeared in Britain under the name &#8220;Blue Siamese&#8221; in 1889 and 1896, but as these solid blue cats did not conform to the cat show judges&#8217; perception of a Siamese cat, they disappeared by 1901. One early import, &#8220;Dwina&#8221;, owned by Russian Blue breeder Mrs. Constance Carew-Cox and mentioned in Frances Simpson&#8217;s The Book of the Cat (1903), reputedly produced a large number of &#8220;Siamese&#8221; kittens; the other, Mrs. B. Spearman&#8217;s Blue Siamese male, &#8220;Nam Noi&#8221;, was disqualified as a Siamese, but accepted in the Russian or Any Other Blue class in which he placed first (WR Hawkins, &#8220;Around the Pens&#8221; July 1896). Spearman tried unsuccessfully to import more of these &#8220;Blue Siamese&#8221;.[3]<\/p>\n<p>Korats first appeared in America in the 1950s. In 1959, Cedar Glen cattery was the first to import a pair of Korats to the U.S. for breeding: a male named Nara and a female named Darra.[2] In 1966, the Korat was accepted into championship status, through the efforts of a breeder from Maryland<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The probable first allusion to the breed is in the Thai Tamra Maew (The Cat-Book Poems), authored between 1350<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":339734,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[87216,18,274,73225,2326,1783,151,46349,87217,9678,598],"class_list":{"0":"post-339733","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-cats","8":"tag-beautiful-photos","9":"tag-cat","10":"tag-cats","11":"tag-cats-breed","12":"tag-friends","13":"tag-korat","14":"tag-neko","15":"tag-photos","16":"tag-pictures","17":"tag-slideshow","18":"tag-598"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.wacoca.com\/pets\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/339733","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.wacoca.com\/pets\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.wacoca.com\/pets\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.wacoca.com\/pets\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.wacoca.com\/pets\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=339733"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.wacoca.com\/pets\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/339733\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.wacoca.com\/pets\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/339734"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.wacoca.com\/pets\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=339733"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.wacoca.com\/pets\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=339733"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.wacoca.com\/pets\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=339733"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
