Temperament
Bombay cats are affectionate and people-oriented. They enjoy being involved in everything their humans do and love attention, cuddles, and play. Their curious nature makes them great explorers, and they typically do well with children and other pets.
Grooming and Care
Their short, satiny coat requires minimal grooming — a weekly brushing will keep it shiny. Bombays are generally healthy but benefit from interactive play and regular stimulation to keep their minds and bodies active.
History and Origin
The Bombay was developed in the 1950s by breeding a black American Shorthair with a sable Burmese, aiming to create a cat that resembled a wild panther but with a domestic temperament. The result is a striking and lovable companion.
