#4 This is a rare case in which the hybrid breed has inherited the best features not only in appearance, but also in the inner world of the “parents”.
The Bombays inherited restraint and poise from the American shorthair cat. Your pet will never show aggression for no reason, even towards strangers, unwary children, and other animals. If the situation becomes uncomfortable, he will prefer to retire to a safe place.
#5 On the other hand, Bombay cats, like their Burmese “cousins”, are incredibly communicative, sociable and loving.
They spread tender feelings and ardent devotion to all family members without exception, usually without distinguishing someone especially. They need human society and constant attention from the owners, and when they are alone they are very sad. Owners often affectionately refer to them as Stickers, as they shadow the household as they go about their business. You can be sure: as soon as you return home and sit in a chair for a minute, a satin purr will immediately settle on your hands.
#6 But you can’t call them sloths
One has only to invite the Bombay cat to run with the kids or show a new toy - she will rush into battle with great enthusiasm.
