Rocky

Rocky is a 2-year-old, purebred Thai Suphalak. He and our adoptable cat - Lily Dilly -were previously "married." They produced a few litters of gorgeous Suphalak and Khao Manee babies for a reputable breeder. They get along great if looking for a pair to adopt, but they are not considered to be a bonded pair that needs to go together. An Ohio couple was selected by TIMBA (Thailand International Maew Boran Association) to help breed Thailand’s rare cats through TIMBA’s Preservation Program. Thanks to these efforts, there are now more than 100 of these cats in the world today. These include the rare Thailand cats such as brown Suphalak, white Khao Manee, black Konja, grey Korats, Lilac Lotus Petal, and Wichienmaat (old Siamese style). All these cat breeds that are known for good luck to their owner are described in Thailand’s Ancient Book of Cat Poems dating back from 700 years ago. These beautiful, athletic, and people-friendly Thailand cat breeds are smaller (7-9 lb.) and known for their ‘dog-like’ behavior by meeting you at the door when you arrive at home, following you around, laying with you, and some play fetch by retrieving their favorite toy mouse to your lap. In 2021, Alleycats & Aristocats became part of the Thailand cat preservation program by getting their cat, Mali, a Khao Manee. Since then, our director decided to help the retired cats of the Thailand cat preservation program find new forever homes and thus became the ‘Aristocats’ in our name. Alleycats & Aristocats believes in preserving this rare breed. After the cats are retired from breeding, we help them find forever homes. Rocky is neutered, microchipped, up to date on vaccines, and tested negative for FIV/FeLV and heartworm. Apply online to adopt: https://alley-aristo.org/adoption-application/
