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.

Minskin

The Minskin is a small, distinctive breed that combines the short legs of the Munchkin with the near-hairless coat of the Sphynx. Despite their unusual appearance, Minskins are warm, outgoing, and incredibly affectionate. They love to be held and thrive on human companionship.
