Overview

Bombay

The Bombay was bred to resemble a miniature black panther, and they succeed magnificently — their jet-black coat gleams like patent leather, and their copper eyes glow against the darkness like polished pennies. Beneath that stunning exterior lies an affectionate, easygoing personality that makes the Bombay an ideal family cat for those who love the sleek beauty of a wild cat in a thoroughly domesticated package.

Dragon Li

The Dragon Li is the internationally recognized name for China's Li Hua Mao, one of the oldest natural cat breeds in the world. With their bold brown mackerel tabby pattern, powerful build, and alert expression, Dragon Lis are striking cats that combine wild beauty with domestic loyalty. They are proud, intelligent companions that bring a piece of Chinese heritage into the modern home.
