Korat

The Korat (, ) is a slate blue-grey short-haired breed of domestic cat with a small to medium build and a low percentage of body fat. Its body is semi-cobby, and unusually heavy for its size. It is an intelligent and playful active cat that forms strong bonds with people. Among the Korats' distinguishing characteristics is its heart-shaped head and large green eyes.

The Korat is a natural breed, and one of the oldest stable cat breeds. Originating in Thailand, it is named after the Nakhon Ratchasima province (typically called "Korat" by the Thai people). In Thailand, the breed is known as Si-Sawat, meaning "colour of the sawat seed". The Korat is known colloquially as the "good luck cat". Traditionally, they are given in pairs to newlyweds or people who are highly esteemed, for good luck. Until recently, Korats were not sold, but only given as gifts.

The Air Force had frequent flights from Udorn and Korat, Thailand, from Tan Son Nhut, Bien Hoa, and Danang.

Because the airfield was under constant attack every night and the Viet Cong were shooting holes in the planes, he and his flight were soon flying out of Korat, Thailand.

When we went to Korat Air Base in Thailand there was absolutely nothing.
