Thailand around the 19th century. It got its name after the Mekong River. However, this name began to apply only in 2003. Before that, the cat was called Siamese or Thai. One of the first descriptions of the breed was made by Charles Darwin in 1883.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In its homeland, the animal was considered royal. Cats lived in temples and palaces. Outside Thailand, bobtails were exported only as gifts to other monarchs. So in 1883, the cat came to Europe, and a decade later \u2013 to America. For a long time, the bobtail was considered a variety of Siamese cats, and short-tailed specimens were rejected. Purposeful selection only began in the XX century. The World Cat Federation recognized the breed in 2004.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"appearance\">Appearance<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>This breed has a pronounced sexual dimorphism. A characteristic feature of the bobtail is a short tail. The body of the cat is muscular, rectangular. The back is straight; the legs are slender, medium height.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The pet\u2019s head is round, with a medium-length muzzle. Chin strong, cheekbones high. The eyes are large, oval.

At their sight, the cat awakens a very strong hunting instinct. The pet of this breed adapts well to journeys by transport. But the solitude of the bobtail poorly tolerates. Therefore, do not leave the pet for a long time.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"care\">Care<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>The Mekong Bobtail is unpretentious in its care. It has a short coat with a weak undercoat. A weekly combing with a soft brush will be enough. Pet shedding is not strong. You should not bathe your cat more than once a month. This procedure can be replaced by wiping with wet wipes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The eyes of a bobtail require daily wiping. The ears should be brushed every week. Brushing the cat\u2019s teeth every day, or at least three times a week, is desirable. Do not forget to trim claws periodically and buy him a scratching post.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"education\">Education<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>Representatives of this breed are intellectually developed and obedient. It is not a problem to train a bobtail to the litter box. Training a cat is not difficult. The intelligent pet understands what is required of him.

During training, don\u2019t raise your voice or raise your hand at the cat. If you do, he will see you as the enemy.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"common-diseases\">Common Diseases<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>The Mekong Bobtail has real longevity.
