Hagar is just over 4 years of age. I'm thinking he could be a Korat. He shows characteristics that make me think he is a Korat; vocal and very needy. Any thoughts?
Thanks

Eyes are green yes? If so, yes, he could be a pet quality older korat.

Beutiful boy - hard to tell, picture 2 his face looks a bit more Russian but don't thing his ears are wide enough apart and he looks a little heavier than a RB however their think fur fur can make them look a little chunkier haha. Do you have a profile shot of his head?

I agree with the other posters- his face and ears look more like a Russian Blue, but he has the body type of a Korat. I also think some profile shots will be helpful!

Talking about russians and the ear-setting. RB of older types could have such ears. Especielly the british type had them straight up, almost as on Batman but somewhat bigger. :)

So we could surely rename him to a RB older type look alike, perhaps of pet quality if the nose profile isnt perfect.

I cast still my vote on a Korat look alike... Fully adult, ie older Korats may have such looks and body, when they have lost the innate elegance and pure muscles of the young adult.

Hagar as in the Bible? The second wife to Abraham and ancestor to the arab-peoples, with her own Convenance with God?

I'll say no...the name was given to him in the shelter.

He certainly is lovely - with the profile shot can you get him completely side on .... have put Niki's pick below as an example (you can see her russian nose in this too)View media item 419138
