The Bombay is a breed of cat. Bombays are medium-sized, with a roundish head and golden eyes. Their fur is black, the coat being short and fine.
It is a cross between a Burmese cat and a European shorthair with the intention to create a panther-like cat.
The Bombaycat was originally created in 1958 when a breeder from Kentucky (USA) deliberately bred an American shorthair with a Burmese for the purpose of creating a domesticated cat that resembled a wild panther.
Bombaycats are quiet and watchful, prefer the indoors and can be affected by loud intrusive noises.
Bombaycats are by nature lap cats; they are almost heat-seeking in their lifestyle and are known to jump up their owner's backs and rest around their neck if they feel they are being ignored.
Bombaycats are the parlor sized panthers of the cat world, created by Nikki Horner, they are a very people oriented breed that crave human attention.
Mustang Bombays was named in his honor, and all cats are named using the nose art that Mustang pilots decorated their aircraft with.
This ensures that each cat and every kitten receives all the love and attention that they deserve, regardless of whether they are a showcat, part of the breeding program, permanent resident, or a kitten leaving for a new home.
