Where Every Paw Feels at Home.
A sleek black panther with a lap-cat heart
The Bombay is a solid black shorthair with a glossy coat and copper or gold eyes, bred to look like a small panther. It is people-loving, playful and loyal, and it needs almost no coat care.

This breed enjoys about 35 minutes of play a day. Around 2 sitter visits a day keeps that routine going, along with fresh food, water and a clean litter tray, when work or travel gets in the way.

Usually yes. They are affectionate and tolerant, and enjoy interactive play, as long as children handle them gently.
They shed lightly thanks to the short, close coat. A weekly rub-down is normally enough to keep it sleek.
It is not ideal, as they bond strongly and can become bored or lonely. A companion pet or a midday visit makes a big difference.
