What are Bombay Cats like?
Bombay cats are known for their large eye-to-nose ratio, giving them an almost cartoonish expression. The contrast between their yellow eyes and black fur are another notable characteristic of the breed. Weighing between 8-15 pounds and up to 20 inches long, they are slender, medium-sized cats. Their coats are short and black.
Bombay cats are extremely social; with children, dogs (ideally if raised together), and strangers. They crave human companionship, so aren’t a great choice if you spend a lot of time away from home. They’re curious and like to vocalize in the presence of their humans.

- Whether they've bred their Bombay Cats with other breeds (they should disclose this and it would make it not a purebred lien.
- Have the socialized the kitten among other kittens?
- Do they belong to a Maryland Bombay Cat breed club? You can ask for references from the club.

I have had two interests since I was very young… the Internet and cats. I grew up with two lovely cats in my family, Midnight and Chloe. But when I started looking for a cat as an adult, I realized how few reliable resources there are for finding ethical breeders. So I combined my Internet skills and cat knowledge to create Cat Kingpin, the #1 resource for cat breeders online. Have a question or suggestion for my list? You can reach me here.
