I still can't find tonic water. Soda water is everywhere but no tonic. The wife's beginning to freak out, she paid 160 baht for 2 bottles of Fever Tree tonic water from a local cafe.

Is this what you're looking for?

Yes, that does appear to be what i'm looking for. So it does exist. Thanks siamesekitty.

A few links I found:

Link ONE

Thai Cat Palace Among the famous breeds of Siamese cat, the white pure Maeo Khao Mani, with the dominant feature of diamond eyes, has been favoured through history by Thai royalty and the elite. In an old Thai-style house on Boromarajajonani Road, a number of diamond-eye cats are bred and shown to visitors. Every cat of this kind has one light blue coloured eye and one that is amber. Valuable amulets called "Phra Somdet" and antiques are also displayed.

Thanks but these are two of many web sites that reference the Thai Cat Palace, but has anyone actually been there? I have searched, Virtual Traveler, Lonely planet, Trip Advisor , Fidors, Nancy Chandler, etc. etc. etc. and I have yet to find anyone who has claimed they have actualy been there.

Does anyone know if the Thai Cat Palace really exists. I have heard it's in an old house on Boromarajajonani Road and they breed the rare Maeo Khao Mani cat. Anyone actually been there?

Is that some sort of Siamese cat ??

Yeah, it's the white cat with one blue eye and one amber eye.

Do a Google search, will tell you all.

Yeah, that's the problem a Google seach lists 10 different web sites with the same word for word vague reference to the cat palace on Boromarajajonani Road. Bangkok A to Z guide makes reference to it but adds "I'll believe it when I see it".

I am in Bangkok for a week and I am looking for a gym I can use without buying a membership? I am staying near the Landmark on Suk. I don't know if Fitter First allows people to use the gym if your not a guest at the Landmark?
