What is a Bombay?

These beautiful cats were created by crossing Burmese with a Black British or American Shorthair. Once the dominant black colour is present breeders only out cross to Burmese to get body type and a tight close lying coat. A distinctive feature of the Bombay is their large copper eyes.
The Bombay is often called the
'Mini Panther'. (We love to watch our Bombays slink around the house just like the beautiful black panthers in the wild.)


Temperament
The Bombay is a purr-sonality plus cat, just like the Burmese. They are full of energy yet at the same time highly affectionate.
They are best kept inside, away from traffic and wild life. Bombay cats are said to be great cats for apartment owners and people with other pets.
