Like all bobtails, the main difference between the Mekong is the tail. Short and "broken", but very mobile and individual for each individual. Otherwise, Mekongs are medium-sized cats, thin and elegant, but with developed muscles. Color - color point, like Siamese cats. This color is a manifestation of temperature-dependent albinism.
The paws of the Mekong are thin, the pads of the paws are oval. The coat is short and shiny, tightly fitting, with almost no undercoat. The head is wedge-shaped, with a blunt and strong chin. The ears are medium-sized, wide at the base. The eyes are amazing: blue, almond-shaped, slightly slanted.
