Khao Manee Cat VS. Turkish Angora Cat.

What are the differences between these two cat breeds?




The Khao Manee is a white cat. The breed's plain white coat also has the effect of making their eyes stand out and sparkle. When it comes to grooming, most Khao Manee cats are very low maintenance--because this is such a short-haired cat, you can get by brushing them just once a week. This will help lessen the likelihood of hairballs and mats forming. In terms of climate, the Khao Manee generally prefers to be around warmer temperatures rather than cold ones. Although you should always make sure that there are enough shade and fresh water available during the hotter months.

The Turkish Angora is best known for its long, fine, silky coat, which seems to shimmer as it moves. The length of the coat varies, with the longest hair usually seen in the ruff around the neck, the “britches” on the upper hind legs, and the plumed tail. You may think of an Angora as being solid white, but the coat can also be other solid colors as well as tabby, tortoiseshell, calico, or other patterns.

Beneath the coat is a body that is firm, long, and muscular. Legs are long, with the hind legs being longer than the front legs, and the paws are small, round, and dainty, often with tufts of fur between the toes. The long tail tapers from a wide base to a narrow end.

Contributing to the cat’s beauty is a small to medium-size wedge-shaped head with large ears that sit high on the head and are tufted with fur and large almond-shaped eyes that slant slightly upward. The eyes can be blue, green, gold, amber or odd, one blue eye and one green, green-gold, or amber eye.



When it comes to the Khao Manee's personality, you'll instantly realize that this is one super playful and curious cat! This breed will happily play fetch games and never think twice about exploring every nook and cranny of an environment--so make sure you have at least one cat tree installed for the kitty and preferably lots of safe furniture that can be scaled.

The breed bonds well with children and other small pets, and will quickly become your kids' best new playmate.  Adding on to the Khao Manee's playful side, this is a sociable cat who always wants to be at the center of any action going on. If your home is empty for large parts of the day, the cat could suffer from loneliness. In fact, Khao Manee's have also become known for being very talkative and verbal kitties--so be prepared for many back and forth conversations with your new feline friend.

Beautiful and elegant on the surface, the Turkish Angora can surprise an unsuspecting owner with his athleticism and intelligence. No bookcase is too high for him to reach the top, and no closed door is safe from being opened by his questing paws. While he certainly can have lovely manners, Turkey, as he is sometimes nicknamed, has an active, boisterous side to his nature, with a cleverness that makes him endlessly entertaining. He likes to play and will do whatever is necessary to get and keep your attention, even if it means getting into a little trouble.

The Angora keeps his kittenlike playfulness well into old age. He is friendly toward guests but loves his own people best. This is a sociable breed that is best suited to a home where he will have another cat or a dog to keep him company if people aren’t home during the day. When you are home, the Angora may drape himself across your shoulders or settle comfortably into your lap.

To live happily with a Turkey, you should have a sense of humor that matches his own, as well as a good store of patience. Once he gets an idea into his head, it can be difficult to change his mind about how he should behave, but he is so charming that you probably won’t care. If you will, it’s best to consider another breed. This is an affectionate, gentle cat who is devoted to his family, but his precocious intelligence, resourcefulness, desire for interaction and play, and short attention span may make him a challenge to live with.
