My Bombay, Bean, is now 20 years old and still as affectionate and talkative as ever! He was my best friend’s cat, but she passed away a few years ago, so he’s all I have left of her. He’s definitely one of the coolest cats I’ve ever had, and he makes a lasting impression on everyone he meets. The chillest cat ever.
I think the idea of declawing a cat is something most people in the world wouldn't even come about. Unless they find joy in torturing animals, of course. I heard about this first time in TV ("Cat out of Hell").
My Bombay cat was dumped in my neighborhood as a kitten. The area was overrun with rats when a nearby date grove was removed. I was at wits end trying to eradicated them when a visitor said to me "you should have seen that little black cat! It just ran down and killed a rat about as big as Itself!" It took me a while to win her over enough to enter my house as she was aware of my Boxer and my Pug . But, she began anticipating being fed and petted and finally followed me inside. She has been a Godsend. The rats are gone. She follows me around and I have even had her join the dogs and sleep with me. She's awesome and I adore her...something nobody ever expected me to say about a CAT!
I think I just got adopted by a wee stray bombay girl. Those eyes, that face, her chattering, her purrsonality, her energy and her intelligence! Dear God is she smart!
It is a bombay cat if you get the pedigree from the breeder stating it is one, completely with the names and breeds of its parents, grandparents and so on, at least 5 generations back. Same with all other breeds of all kinds of animals.
My bombay loves the outdoors in my rural area. He is an excellent mouser and brings me his finds. He loves to use my feet when I am sitting as his pillow. He is very active and since I have the rule, that he must be inside overnight he loves running up and down the stairs at night, so I hear the thump thump of his running feet on the stairs going up and down at night.
I had a Bombay cat named Nexxie. he was the first cat I ever got. we had him for years, until one day where he was acting strange. we wanted to take him to the vet but it was Christmastime meaning the vet was closed so we had to wait until the day after Christmas. sadly, he didn't make it in time. my mom found him laying completely still in bed, so my parents wrapped him up in a blanket and buried him in the backyard. I miss him everyday. R.I.P Nexxie 2006-2021
Well, I just realized I have a Bombay cat lol. Been doing research on her and such, She's a kitten that I found in the road a few months ago. Super awesome kitty. We have a great bond, she is such a wonderful cat
a bombay cat arrived at my back door 2 weeks ago, now he comes everyday sometimes twice and he is the most affectionate cat ever, 2 days ago he fell asleep in my lap for 20 minutes and started snoring. I have been giving him good quality wet food and meat, this cat eats everything and is incredibly hungry, sometimes requiring the same amount of food again later in the evening/night. Today i played with him for nearly an hour with a toy mouse, he jumped so high and after a while decided to rest under the table and watch the birds in the garden. Then my original stray cat came and he got so protective of me, he came over to me and started hissing at the other cat, they were in the garden screaming like babies being murdered then they walked away in the same direction 🤣
@The Street LogBook I don't think it was a street cat like you see on videos on youtube, he was still young and he was in very good condition and my theory is he was abandoned because of how much food he eats, he usually eats 5 pouches of wet food every day. Since December he has grown in length, i know bombay cats can gain weight but he hasn't because he is active, he still likes going out for a few hours. Last week be brought a friend over and i fed both, his friend is a neighbours cat so i think he is settling into the neighbourhood, he's definitely settled into the house, sometimes he wants to stay in my room more than eat food haha
@The Street LogBook OMG that's terrible, they are so friendly and loving, i really hope he hasn't been abused. Can you try and feed him? buy a bag of dreamies treats or whiskas treats, they are portable and cats love them a lot, if you can feed these to the cat then maybe it will trust you and you can try to bring him home to you. I'm new to owning a cat too but i did have to deal with a few of his injuries because of a bully cat in the neighbourhood, i bought Vetericyn for his wound and it healed within a week while using it. If you can get the cat to trust you and come home then you probably should bring it to the vet. The cat is maybe depressed, it may have been abandoned and has lost hope.
Be cautious most cats are owned by someone they let them out and go wandering id try to make sure before taking, i almost took a cat i know was one of mine kittens they were exactly the same dif pattern after he passed, came up to me asking for food and everythin but was chilling onnsomeones yard the door wws open screen closed stealing a cat isnt somthing id want to do i decided to focus on my older baby as she aged out Also had a almost baby jump out of bushes walking down thebstreet and miow at me to make friens started following but a bird swooped him and he ran for the bushed again i probably should have at least asked or knocked on the door or somthing in heindsight
I adopted an adorable kitten from the shelter. He turned out to be a gorgeous Bombay that had been given away because his tail was previously broken and is deformed
My Bombay has a genetically kinked tail…looks like a lightning bolt. Could it be this and not fractured? It’s an Asian trait…from Japan bobtails I think
My very first and only kitty is a sweet little 6 pound Bombay, Lucy is approaching 18 years old. Just as active as she was when I brought her home with me 17 years ago.
Is a Bombay cat a pedigree ??as these cats remind me so much of my new kitten .well soon to b 1 year old.Hes been chipped chopped and all of he's injections..So he's healthy ..I just feel sad when I leave him as he seems incredibly stressed when I get home after work.Hes really really hard work to get excited to even play sometimes ,,he gets bored and walks away...I saved this cats life as it was given to me far too young let's just say I had to go out and buy kitten formula and fed him from a baby bottle ...😊He looked like a fluffy little monkey so amazing n happy he seemed to b eating everything in sight was brave n acted like he'd known me for years lol.. .Then one Evening it was a Birthday Meal at my house My cat Marmite, went sniffed everyone n the usual. Then a couple of females at my dinner I'd like to call them ladies but not when it scares animals ..There was an argument at the dinner table.I saw marmite was not happy ,,then they started fighting so all I could do to protect my baby was lock him in my bedroom....This didn't last long B4 My male friends stopped it and I asked them to leave ..Marmite changed from that day 😢n I wish that I could talk to him n explain I'm so sad that he had to go through that ..If anyone has gone through similar or an incident has changed there cat please let me no..He's very picky with food biscuits ..I worry. That I'm not good enough for him.. He's got lots of toys ..He plays me up all night n day .He has this thing at the moment for getting me up n down to let him out on the balcony but I have to watch him otherwise he's jumped B4 2stories n I worry about the road but just seems like he should go out ..I'm frightened because he's my best friend and I don't want him to get ran over .....it's so hard ...good luck everyone I wish everyone the best with there pets..if I could crack the needyness at night every 2 hours he wakes me..So please if you can help please do...
My Bombay LOVES being outside! But he only goes outside from 8pm onwards and usually comes back at 5am. He stays inside and sleeps from 6am till I get home at 4:30pm, then he lingers and at 8pm he's gone. He gets anxious if I don't let him out. I rather him out at night though, it's safer. Plus where I live there is hardly any traffic. I love him so much.
Ours was a rescue who was let outside as a kitten so no way can we make it an indoor cat now. Our compromise is we let him out for 3-4 hours in the morning and make sure he checks in. It's a good compromise and I feel he would get depressed without a little outdoor time. He never goes out at night, we have coyotes around. He's 10, hearty and I'm hoping he becomes more indoorsey with age.
I own a Bombay cat. She is wonderful. She gets an incredible diet. If I have to travel, she has done very well with my brother and my nephew. I do allow her outside under strict supervision so I am not concerned. I have owned many breeds and I have done my best to give them the best life possible. I believe that I have succeeded. My current Bombay cat came to me through an animal shelter in mid-2022. Spoiled rotten and she knows that. She is the greatest. I hope that each of you has a wonderful cat.
I adopted a "Bombay mix". He is extremely active and affectionate. I have the perfect form of Kitty TV outside my window in the form of a large tree outside my apartment - home to birds and squirrels. He also plays fetch - with one specific type of toy - and I am certain to keep a supply of them in the home.
Thanks. I got a Bombay kitten for my 10 year old he is a really sweet kitten. He is very very energetic. I didn’t realize he was a such a hunter he definitely zooms thru our home. Bombays definitely do not hesitate to let you know they want something.
Mine is a total guts. She loves food. Loves travelling in the car on my lap. Has even been in a kayak. She would joy ride in a wheelbarrow if you take it easy. Mira loves outside time and is very sociable smart and friendly. I adore her. They love to be around you and are very sociable cats.
My Bombay was originally feral so “not going outside” is a moot point. That’s where he’d been living before he joined our household. I don’t even need a litter box as I don’t know where he goes……….but he is the most glorious cat. He’s as smart as a whip, incredibly affectionate and manipulates us completely. He likes to sit with us when we watch a movie….perhaps I should have named him Fido? He’s incredibly gorgeous to look at too. Mordecai is wonderful and I’m afraid I’ve fallen in love…totally.
We found our Bombay outside and there is no way we can stop him from going out. As he gets aggressive towards our other two and destructive of our belongings.
Same! He was feral and found us. When we first began to handle him one thing struck us right away, he was very lean but much heavier than you’d expect. Right at 15lbs now at ~4 years old, he’s a tank! And a good mouser. Sweet boy!
I have two Bombay cats, a pair of brothers from the same litter. I have my cats outside every day, but not free roaming. They go on harness and leash, and have no problem with it. Bombay cats are the best pets, but don't ever let them climb a tree. They are brave and adventurous, and will go straight up a tree.
I had a black stray cat have 5 kittens in my hall closet. 4 voids and one tuxedo. The father was a local stray everyone knew but he didn't belong to anyone. He was a HUGE fluffy black cat. I came across this video and WOW! My all black cats look just like these in the video and my two fluffy ones of the litter look like the ones in this video! They are the most affectionate and playful cats I have ever had. I always wanted black cats but didn't want or think I could have cats in my small apart but the universe thought otherwise! I had 5 and the mom and it was the greatest! I ended up keeping 2 voids and the tuxedo, one fluffy boy was adopted to a family member and another all black non fluffy male was adopted out to a friend, then my neighbor adopted the mom. The dad was a local stray everyone took care of so he didn't need a home.. They all have the same chill and playful personality. My two voids, one female who looks like her mom and then my male who is a fluff ball like his dad both play fetch like a dog. They are the smartest cats I have ever had. My male is super affectionate and is definitely a momma's boy. They do not go outside as I dont live in a place where it would be safe for them. They have a huge porch though they sit on daily and have so many toys to play with. They are definitely spoiled and loved.
I notice that a LOT of the pics you show in this video are of Bombays “outside” in their natural environment while telling us to never let your cat outside?!??!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! Good thing I take everything on UA-cam with a grain of salt!¡!¡!¡!¡ My Bombay loves going outside hunting and brings me “treats” at all hours of the night!!!¡¡¡!!!¡¡¡ She’s my orphan assassin (I rescued her) and is VERY smart and very tolerant of me working long hours!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Such a good girl 🐾
@chelsea7755 cmmmmmmmm where 2 start........ the top of course...... Im not contributing to a problem I saved a tinny little kitten from certain death on the side of a state highway in a cold raining November night and everything she kills she eats unless I catch it inside the house then I release it back outside vehicles is the vary LAST thing I worry about killing her as my front yard is the Shenandoah River and my back yard is the Appalachian Trail,,,,,,, we have Bear, Coyote, Wolves, Coy-Wolves, Fox and the like all over the place and she has in the neighborhood of a thousand acres to roam around on so she stays away from the road I promise you that YES I do liver her very much but [A] she's a Cat and [B] she's a Cat so when you cage yourself up inside your house for the rest of your life I will consider keeping her inside completely away from her natural environment and unhappy until she dies..... I let her live her natural life with a few added bonuses like a safe haven to escape harm and rest her pretty little head when SHE want to and a human that loves her and keeps her as safe as humanly possible without locking her up as stated above.... I let her outside and she does what comes natural to her,,,,,, sleep, hunt, eat, repeat!!!!!!! Yes I helped raise her in the creek and the woods and she took to it immediately as natural as can be..... She was 70+ feet up in the trees when she was a baby there is no way possible to keep such a natures creature locked up like a prisoner allowed to look outside but never go outside......... I know how that story ends as that's how I got my previous Cat Frick from my neighbor who locked his cats inside the house until his GF finally convinced him to allow them outside and they never ever went back to his house again....... Frack became the neighborhood Tomcat and Frick adopted me and Jennifer and moved in with us after seeing that he was allowed to come and go as HE wanted not as some human dictated to him..... And when we moved out to the country he was SO very happy to live his life as a free Cat!!!!!!!! So you can go ahead and be Hitler to your animals if you want,,,,,, I choose to love mine thank you very much
@chelsea7755 I'm grateful for the mice, voles, and rats that my cat hunts in my suburban neighborhood. The crazy level of development has recently routed the predators that did the job. Now people are laying poison everywhere which is NOT great for the owls that are left. A well-fed cat is NOT (usually) the problem in suburbia. The feral populations are skillfully managed by the catch-neuter-and-release programs (which include regular food drops too). I believe the messaging can be much more nuanced than it is. The common message is to blame CATS for drops in the bird population. Demonizing outdoor cats won't save the birds from urban development and FROM OTHER BIRDS! Cats are the least of their problems.
@@pheresy1367f your cat isn’t properly trained to not hunt birds then it shouldn’t be outside. It could also get a fatal disease, especially if there’s poison being put down. Once a cat is already used to the outdoors it’s hard to make them an indoor cat again which is why it’s important to research owning a pet before getting one. Cats are a huge contributor to the problem, there’s no point denying that now. She’s tolerant because she has no choice
@@KravMike08 domestic cats are not bred to live in the outdoors. It’s your duty as a cat owner to properly train them not to hunt animals that could have parasites and to give them an enriching indoor space. Would you let a dog roam free with no guidance? Before adopting a cat you need to do the bare minimum of research. I hope you have pet insurance.
@@BirdaeBlue lololololol I didn't adopt a cat I rescued a tiny little black fur ball that some human abandon at a gas station in the dark of a cold rainy night in November right next to a major highway where she was certainly going to die Would YOU lock yourself up in your house for eternity?¿? She is nature's creature not a thing that can be controlled She has a wonderful life here on the river where she has unlimited space to roam and play with the added bonus of a loving human and a roof over her head and a comfy bed to sleep in (if she wants) No I would not let a dog roam freely I would not have a dog Dogs go outside and shit in your yard and then go back tomorrow and eat that shit then lick your face with that tongue I'll take a pass on dogs thank you very much Me and my orphan assassin are very happy here on the river and don't need you or anybody else thinking they know better than we do telling us how to live....... We're good!¡!¡!¡!¡ Keep a cat inside,,,,,,,,, SMH I'm not Hitler but it sounds like you are
My Bombay, “Friday” is about 4 years old now. Live in the suburbs, has only been inside a handful of times when it gets too cold. Crack the garage, where he comes in and out at his will. Got many “spots/beds” for him in there as well as another on our patio where he sleeps lots of the day. Hunts in the evening and will follow us as we walk our dog. Very smart cat, definitely enjoys being outside hunting and observing wildlife rather than inside looking at some drywall lol. Coyotes a problem as live on a golf course where they love to come out at night but this dude is so dark, he knows how to hide with the best of them.
You’re shamelessly admitting that your cat is apart of the main contributors to dying species of suburban wildlife and you live near coyotes? Domestic cats are not bred for the outdoors, hope you have pet insurance.
@@BirdaeBlue he’s not, we didn’t go and buy him, we found him and outside cats deserve to live outside like they have for hundreds of years before domestication
I know a lot of people want to please their cat by letting them outdoors, but I think it's very important to count the possible costs. My Bombay has escaped a few times and while I feel bad for him, I strive to make his indoor life the absolute best and he is generally very happy. Count the cost: illness, FLEAS! (I refuse to put a chemical laden flea collar on a cat) wild animals, and possible theft of your black beauty. Outdoors= Vet Bills too at some point. My Mr Mooney was a rescue and 6 months old when I got him. He was used to going outside. But it didn't take long for him to choose me as his Number One. It didn't take long to get him used to the idea that we don't do outdoors here. Sure, he'd like to run outside if I left the door open, but he's not depressed or sad, he's thriving! They can be trained, especially when they love you like crazy ❤ they don't always like your decision but they respect and trust you. They're similar to children in those respects (I have 2 grown kids and one at home) ...I wouldn't send my young children out into potential dangers and I won't send my fur babies out either. Thanks for these beautiful videos showcasing the wonderful 'Bombaby' cat.
My Bombay cat is an inside outside cat he doesn't go near the road and loves dry cat food I only let him out when the temperature is going to be 70+ but never over 98 he gets plenty of exercise outside
This video should be renamed "6 things you must never do with a cat" except for the first one. Outside is dangerous, yes, but many cats, independently of their race, are happier outside and Bombay cats have such a thick undercoat that the rain doesn't even bother them.
We found our Bombay as a stray on our ranch in Montana, he could never stay inside and loves to hunt outside, he chooses when to go and come and will ask anyone to let him in by going to a window where people will see him and jumping onto it.
My bombay cat is an indoor outdoor cat. She loves my yard and does not stray. I think that if not outside, cats should have a catio so they can be outside.
My Bombay follows me everywhere and I can take her for walks without a leash. And she knows that at 5:15 we go out and dinner at 6. She stands at the meows “out”. Very strange.
Got adopted by a Bombay cat just over the weekend. Female just over being a kitten and not quite an adult, she was at the top of the stairs,, meowing at me, thought she was feral at first, and wanted to get by me, got out of the way, she was waiting for me to sit down on a step so she could show her affectionate side. Brought in in my apt. And let her get used to the place. All was good. Went out a few hours later to get my mail, and liw and behold came across a bombay cat looking exactly like her. It meowed and showed the same characteristics so I said hey kitty how'd you get out. Turned out it was another Bombay cat the same same size and age, it was a male this time. Brought him in to meet the other Bombay cat, i no hissing or any fighting. Just acted like they already knew each other, think they both were from the same litter and just abandon. They knew how much of sucker I was and haven't regretted having them since.
My cat does go out, but stays on front porch to watch sunset or maybe sun bathe in backyard. He prefers to stay in the house - especially at night and snuggled up to one of his humans. For 3 years he never went near or out the dog door, and one day he did. However, he isn’t like most cats and goes out exploring. He also comes when you call his name. And when I was training dog to do sit or to turn on command, I realized he was doing it (wanted the freeze dried treats was giving the dog), so he will sit on command. Trips people out.
"Don't let your cat outside" is good advice for anyone who wants their cat to stay alive. Around here, we have hawks, owls, coyotes, fisher cats, and cars as prime dangers. Also, I've come to agree that dry food is not good for them...
I have this cat for 2 years and it is true so smart Intelligent cat ever. And verry loving cat loyal and can find the owner someone kidnap them. They love to Hunting pageant even we give them good to much
I just got my first Bombay and have to agree with most everything stated about them. She is as sweet and friendly and playful as can possibly be! So, I'm enjoying watching these videos on them? I'm just a bit confused though? In your video you say, "not to let your Bombay kitties go outside and yet, "your video shows a few shots of Bombay's OUTSIDE"? And as you put it, they are "natural animals"!! I'd love it, if I could let her out in my yard in the daytime and back inside at night? Any thoughts on that? She has lived inside my house for about 2 months now, and she's only about 4-5 months old!!
I once left him alone for just a week but was with other family friends. When I returned he didn't come near me for days, clearly upset by ny absence 😀
My Bombay is street smart he can handle himself lol. He walks me to my car every morning and when my mom visits he walks her to her car. Also a tablespoon of coconut oil mixed in the food man's the coat so immaculate, soft & fluffy.
I have a feral Bombay didn't know she was one till watching Animal planet channel..my Father gave her name.. Licorice..perfect name for her ❤ and she's very loving and so smart and I keep her inside..She has a tall cat tower by sliding door she loves to watch the outside and I have a bird feeder and bird bath she can watch and enjoy
My first Bombay cat wasn't even my own She was an outdoor cat that found me while sitting at my firepit in my backyard in 2018 around midnight, so I named her Midnight She was with me through the 2020 quarantine and beyond. I have no idea who her owner because sometimes she'd have a collar or even a flea collar, and would smell like shampoo or cigarette smoke. But I fed her, groomed her and let her sleep inside on cold nights. And she'd meow outside my bedroom window when she wanted inside.
My Bombay loves off gridding in the forests of BC. She's loaded with common sense and I can't imagine hindering her because somebody said . . . . Use common sense when someone tells you to go against nature. Plan your times and places and they will love you for it! Do outings together.
Some good advice but it applys to all cats not just the Bombay. No matter the breed cats, like all animals, including people, can like or dislike different things. All living creatures have their own spirit and personality.
“Don’t allow them outside” then show so many pictures of these cats outside. Personally I can’t imagine not letting my cat outside. She follows me wherever I go when I come inside she does as well.
I can’t imagine trying to keep my cat in. I kept her in for the first year but she got out eventually. She lives in the countryside now and has lots of birds and mice to hunt.
I found my baby boy outside he literally just appeared at my feet i scooped him up n he never went outside since its been 2 yrs n i want 20 more yrs with him which means looking thru the window is as close as he gets to be outside ❤❤❤
The reason cats are not let outside is to protect birds and wildlife as they are serial killers But for the cat itself- it’s meant to be outside. 90% of cats thrive outside. It’s just the outside that doesn’t thrive with them 😊
I found my Bombay cat at. My. Old apartment outside with his brother and sister huddled up under someone’s car and I got to bathe him and he had many ticks on him so we got all those off him and he loves me and his name is max and he sleeps with me in my bed he will just go up to me and he loves looking outside at a window and loves to be warm and I love him so much I am Evan trying to train him with treats
Ooh, you make me live Whatever this world can give to me It's you, you're all I see Ooh, you make me live now, honey Ooh, you make me live Oh, you're the best friend that I ever had I've been with you such a long time You're my sunshine and I want you to know That my feelings are true, I really love you Oh, you're my best friend Ooh, you make me live Ooh, I've been wandering 'round Still dropped back to you (but I still come back to you) In rain or shine you've stood by me, girl I'm happy at home (happy at home) You're my best friend Ooh, you make me live Whenever this world is cruel to me I got you to help me forgive (ooh-ooh-ooh) Ooh, you make me live now, honey OOh, you make me live Oh, you're the first one When things turn out bad You know I'll never be lonely You're my only one and I love the things I really love the things that you do (ooh) Oh, you're my best friend Ooh, you make me live (Live, live, live) I'm happy (happy at home) You're my best friend Oh, oh, you're my best friend Ooh, you make me live Ooh, you're my best friend
Now the Bombay kitten and this little baby. I had to go to the hospital. She wouldn't come back inside the whole time. I was gone. She waited for me outside. And you wanna know what happened to her? She's got a bunch of white hairs on the back of her head and the back of her neck because I was gone. This is not a joke. You cannot leave these cats alone. You have to be with them all the time. So if you're older and you're sick, you don't want to bomb bagels, really don't because like what I just went through with my poor little baby. She was devastated when I was gone

My indoor Bombay cat is 23 years old and still going strong!
Wow 23!!!
mine's 4 months
How about now??
@@kevinvazquez6120 Still healthy and talkative.
Mine is 7!!! He’s such a smart and loving boy I really hope I can keep him til 18 or 20 I will absolutely baby him ❤
My Bombay, Bean, is now 20 years old and still as affectionate and talkative as ever! He was my best friend’s cat, but she passed away a few years ago, so he’s all I have left of her. He’s definitely one of the coolest cats I’ve ever had, and he makes a lasting impression on everyone he meets. The chillest cat ever.
Worst thing you can do to your cat, and you left it out: NEVER, EVER DECLAW YOUR CAT!! Rest of your advice is excellent.
Declawing is illegal here because it is animal abuse.
I think the idea of declawing a cat is something most people in the world wouldn't even come about. Unless they find joy in torturing animals, of course. I heard about this first time in TV ("Cat out of Hell").
My Bombay cat was dumped in my neighborhood as a kitten. The area was overrun with rats when a nearby date grove was removed. I was at wits end trying to eradicated them when a visitor said to me "you should have seen that little black cat! It just ran down and killed a rat about as big as Itself!"
It took me a while to win her over enough to enter my house as she was aware of my Boxer and my Pug . But, she began anticipating being fed and petted and finally followed me inside. She has been a Godsend.
The rats are gone. She follows me around and I have even had her join the dogs and sleep with me. She's awesome and I adore her...something nobody ever expected me to say about a CAT!
I love it my cat is a Bombay and he was kinda nervous about my my dog she’s kind of a hunting dog but he is really calm around m dog to
All of these points apply to ALL cats.
Not true some cats don't give a shit about human interaction my Bombay insists on it. And comes up to greet everyone along with my 2 dogs
I think I just got adopted by a wee stray bombay girl. Those eyes, that face, her chattering, her purrsonality, her energy and her intelligence! Dear God is she smart!
I also just found out that my boy is a Bombay. He is absolutely wonderful. I plan to keep him happy and healthy for a long life span.
It is a bombay cat if you get the pedigree from the breeder stating it is one, completely with the names and breeds of its parents, grandparents and so on, at least 5 generations back. Same with all other breeds of all kinds of animals.
My bombay loves the outdoors in my rural area. He is an excellent mouser and brings me his finds. He loves to use my feet when I am sitting as his pillow. He is very active and since I have the rule, that he must be inside overnight he loves running up and down the stairs at night, so I hear the thump thump of his running feet on the stairs going up and down at night.
That is awesome!
I had a Bombay cat named Nexxie. he was the first cat I ever got. we had him for years, until one day where he was acting strange. we wanted to take him to the vet but it was Christmastime meaning the vet was closed so we had to wait until the day after Christmas. sadly, he didn't make it in time. my mom found him laying completely still in bed, so my parents wrapped him up in a blanket and buried him in the backyard. I miss him everyday. R.I.P Nexxie 2006-2021
Well, I just realized I have a Bombay cat lol.
Been doing research on her and such, She's a kitten that I found in the road a few months ago. Super awesome kitty.
We have a great bond, she is such a wonderful cat
My Bombay is almost 4. She is always inside. Loves looking out the window. And she gets daily exercise running through the house and always on the go.
a bombay cat arrived at my back door 2 weeks ago, now he comes everyday sometimes twice and he is the most affectionate cat ever, 2 days ago he fell asleep in my lap for 20 minutes and started snoring. I have been giving him good quality wet food and meat, this cat eats everything and is incredibly hungry, sometimes requiring the same amount of food again later in the evening/night. Today i played with him for nearly an hour with a toy mouse, he jumped so high and after a while decided to rest under the table and watch the birds in the garden. Then my original stray cat came and he got so protective of me, he came over to me and started hissing at the other cat, they were in the garden screaming like babies being murdered then they walked away in the same direction 🤣
These are great cats
Rrrr that's such a lovely cat story .If only mine was lol .😊
@The Street LogBook I don't think it was a street cat like you see on videos on youtube, he was still young and he was in very good condition and my theory is he was abandoned because of how much food he eats, he usually eats 5 pouches of wet food every day. Since December he has grown in length, i know bombay cats can gain weight but he hasn't because he is active, he still likes going out for a few hours. Last week be brought a friend over and i fed both, his friend is a neighbours cat so i think he is settling into the neighbourhood, he's definitely settled into the house, sometimes he wants to stay in my room more than eat food haha
@The Street LogBook OMG that's terrible, they are so friendly and loving, i really hope he hasn't been abused. Can you try and feed him? buy a bag of dreamies treats or whiskas treats, they are portable and cats love them a lot, if you can feed these to the cat then maybe it will trust you and you can try to bring him home to you. I'm new to owning a cat too but i did have to deal with a few of his injuries because of a bully cat in the neighbourhood, i bought Vetericyn for his wound and it healed within a week while using it. If you can get the cat to trust you and come home then you probably should bring it to the vet. The cat is maybe depressed, it may have been abandoned and has lost hope.
Be cautious most cats are owned by someone they let them out and go wandering id try to make sure before taking, i almost took a cat i know was one of mine kittens they were exactly the same dif pattern after he passed, came up to me asking for food and everythin but was chilling onnsomeones yard the door wws open screen closed stealing a cat isnt somthing id want to do i decided to focus on my older baby as she aged out
Also had a almost baby jump out of bushes walking down thebstreet and miow at me to make friens started following but a bird swooped him and he ran for the bushed again i probably should have at least asked or knocked on the door or somthing in heindsight
My Bombay absolutely loves the outdoors. Most nights she actually sleeps with me on my bed. Generally she spends 50% of her time indoors.
Watch the coyote. They should only be indoors. 50% indoors . its the other50% that's dangerous. Why take a chance.
@@sandrapicciotto2508if you live in an area with a lot of street cats, theyll be fine.
I adopted an adorable kitten from the shelter. He turned out to be a gorgeous Bombay that had been given away because his tail was previously broken and is deformed
My Bombay has a genetically kinked tail…looks like a lightning bolt. Could it be this and not fractured? It’s an Asian trait…from Japan bobtails I think
@@Keylimetart24 definately a possibility i have no idea how it happened
@@Keylimetart24 and yes my cats tail is like a lightening bolt near the base of.his tail
My very first and only kitty is a sweet little 6 pound Bombay, Lucy is approaching 18 years old. Just as active as she was when I brought her home with me 17 years ago.
My Bombay beauty was my bestie for 16 years. All cats should be kept inside for a longer healthier life, ❤🐈⬛
I love my Pantera she's a bombay rescue 🐈⬛ thank you for the info. Love to know new stuff
Lol dope asf name! I named my pawed princess Puma due to Panthera meaning panther. Hope you both are blissfully living and loving, blessings
Is a Bombay cat a pedigree ??as these cats remind me so much of my new kitten .well soon to b 1 year old.Hes been chipped chopped and all of he's injections..So he's healthy ..I just feel sad when I leave him as he seems incredibly stressed when I get home after work.Hes really really hard work to get excited to even play sometimes ,,he gets bored and walks away...I saved this cats life as it was given to me far too young let's just say I had to go out and buy kitten formula and fed him from a baby bottle ...😊He looked like a fluffy little monkey so amazing n happy he seemed to b eating everything in sight was brave n acted like he'd known me for years lol.. .Then one Evening it was a Birthday Meal at my house My cat Marmite, went sniffed everyone n the usual. Then a couple of females at my dinner I'd like to call them ladies but not when it scares animals ..There was an argument at the dinner table.I saw marmite was not happy ,,then they started fighting so all I could do to protect my baby was lock him in my bedroom....This didn't last long B4 My male friends stopped it and I asked them to leave ..Marmite changed from that day 😢n I wish that I could talk to him n explain I'm so sad that he had to go through that ..If anyone has gone through similar or an incident has changed there cat please let me no..He's very picky with food biscuits ..I worry. That I'm not good enough for him.. He's got lots of toys ..He plays me up all night n day .He has this thing at the moment for getting me up n down to let him out on the balcony but I have to watch him otherwise he's jumped B4 2stories n I worry about the road but just seems like he should go out ..I'm frightened because he's my best friend and I don't want him to get ran over .....it's so hard ...good luck everyone I wish everyone the best with there pets..if I could crack the needyness at night every 2 hours he wakes me..So please if you can help please do...
My Bombay kitty ( black beans) .
She is so smart she follows me like a dog 😂❤
My Bombay LOVES being outside! But he only goes outside from 8pm onwards and usually comes back at 5am. He stays inside and sleeps from 6am till I get home at 4:30pm, then he lingers and at 8pm he's gone. He gets anxious if I don't let him out. I rather him out at night though, it's safer. Plus where I live there is hardly any traffic. I love him so much.
I've been doing all of this the right way. And my cat has been the happiest boi.
Ours was a rescue who was let outside as a kitten so no way can we make it an indoor cat now. Our compromise is we let him out for 3-4 hours in the morning and make sure he checks in. It's a good compromise and I feel he would get depressed without a little outdoor time. He never goes out at night, we have coyotes around. He's 10, hearty and I'm hoping he becomes more indoorsey with age.
I own a Bombay cat.
She is wonderful.
She gets an incredible diet.
If I have to travel, she has done very well with my brother and my nephew.
I do allow her outside under strict supervision so I am not concerned.
I have owned many breeds and I have done my best to give them the best life possible.
I believe that I have succeeded.
My current Bombay cat came to me through an animal shelter in mid-2022.
Spoiled rotten and she knows that.
She is the greatest.
I hope that each of you has a wonderful cat.
They are also really talkative alot cry's themselves sick if left alone a long time
I adopted a "Bombay mix". He is extremely active and affectionate. I have the perfect form of Kitty TV outside my window in the form of a large tree outside my apartment - home to birds and squirrels. He also plays fetch - with one specific type of toy - and I am certain to keep a supply of them in the home.
My Bombay cat comes out side with me when I water or garden. He can climb a tree so fast. He loves to be out and inside.
Thanks. I got a Bombay kitten for my 10 year old he is a really sweet kitten. He is very very energetic. I didn’t realize he was a such a hunter he definitely zooms thru our home. Bombays definitely do not hesitate to let you know they want something.
Mine is a total guts. She loves food. Loves travelling in the car on my lap. Has even been in a kayak. She would joy ride in a wheelbarrow if you take it easy. Mira loves outside time and is very sociable smart and friendly. I adore her. They love to be around you and are very sociable cats.
My Bombay was originally feral so “not going outside” is a moot point. That’s where he’d been living before he joined our household. I don’t even need a litter box as I don’t know where he goes……….but he is the most glorious cat. He’s as smart as a whip, incredibly affectionate and manipulates us completely. He likes to sit with us when we watch a movie….perhaps I should have named him Fido? He’s incredibly gorgeous to look at too. Mordecai is wonderful and I’m afraid I’ve fallen in love…totally.
My Maine coon is exactly like your Bombay😂
We found our Bombay outside and there is no way we can stop him from going out. As he gets aggressive towards our other two and destructive of our belongings.
Same! He was feral and found us. When we first began to handle him one thing struck us right away, he was very lean but much heavier than you’d expect. Right at 15lbs now at ~4 years old, he’s a tank! And a good mouser. Sweet boy!
I have two Bombay cats, a pair of brothers from the same litter. I have my cats outside every day, but not free roaming. They go on harness and leash, and have no problem with it. Bombay cats are the best pets, but don't ever let them climb a tree. They are brave and adventurous, and will go straight up a tree.
Bro I'm watching this right next to my black hat😂😂😂 3:52
Had a Bombay that a neighbor had abandoned . We took him in . What a wonderful furry face friend he was. I Think in reality he took us in
My Bombay loves going outside. If I didn’t let her out she would be whining all day and destructive.
Amen!! Same with my Bombay. She goes out 8 hours a day.
We have a Bombay, when we have to leave as a family he is not alone, we also have 2 torties and they all play together.....even at 3 am.
I had a black stray cat have 5 kittens in my hall closet. 4 voids and one tuxedo. The father was a local stray everyone knew but he didn't belong to anyone. He was a HUGE fluffy black cat. I came across this video and WOW! My all black cats look just like these in the video and my two fluffy ones of the litter look like the ones in this video! They are the most affectionate and playful cats I have ever had. I always wanted black cats but didn't want or think I could have cats in my small apart but the universe thought otherwise! I had 5 and the mom and it was the greatest! I ended up keeping 2 voids and the tuxedo, one fluffy boy was adopted to a family member and another all black non fluffy male was adopted out to a friend, then my neighbor adopted the mom. The dad was a local stray everyone took care of so he didn't need a home.. They all have the same chill and playful personality. My two voids, one female who looks like her mom and then my male who is a fluff ball like his dad both play fetch like a dog. They are the smartest cats I have ever had. My male is super affectionate and is definitely a momma's boy. They do not go outside as I dont live in a place where it would be safe for them. They have a huge porch though they sit on daily and have so many toys to play with. They are definitely spoiled and loved.
I notice that a LOT of the pics you show in this video are of Bombays “outside” in their natural environment while telling us to never let your cat outside?!??!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
Good thing I take everything on UA-cam with a grain of salt!¡!¡!¡!¡
My Bombay loves going outside hunting and brings me “treats” at all hours of the night!!!¡¡¡!!!¡¡¡ She’s my orphan assassin (I rescued her) and is VERY smart and very tolerant of me working long hours!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Such a good girl 🐾
@chelsea7755 cmmmmmmmm where 2 start........ the top of course......
Im not contributing to a problem I saved a tinny little kitten from certain death on the side of a state highway in a cold raining November night and everything she kills she eats unless I catch it inside the house then I release it back outside
vehicles is the vary LAST thing I worry about killing her as my front yard is the Shenandoah River and my back yard is the Appalachian Trail,,,,,,, we have Bear, Coyote, Wolves, Coy-Wolves, Fox and the like all over the place and she has in the neighborhood of a thousand acres to roam around on so she stays away from the road I promise you that
YES I do liver her very much but [A] she's a Cat and [B] she's a Cat so when you cage yourself up inside your house for the rest of your life I will consider keeping her inside completely away from her natural environment and unhappy until she dies..... I let her live her natural life with a few added bonuses like a safe haven to escape harm and rest her pretty little head when SHE want to and a human that loves her and keeps her as safe as humanly possible without locking her up as stated above....
I let her outside and she does what comes natural to her,,,,,, sleep, hunt, eat, repeat!!!!!!! Yes I helped raise her in the creek and the woods and she took to it immediately as natural as can be..... She was 70+ feet up in the trees when she was a baby there is no way possible to keep such a natures creature locked up like a prisoner allowed to look outside but never go outside......... I know how that story ends as that's how I got my previous Cat Frick from my neighbor who locked his cats inside the house until his GF finally convinced him to allow them outside and they never ever went back to his house again....... Frack became the neighborhood Tomcat and Frick adopted me and Jennifer and moved in with us after seeing that he was allowed to come and go as HE wanted not as some human dictated to him..... And when we moved out to the country he was SO very happy to live his life as a free Cat!!!!!!!!
So you can go ahead and be Hitler to your animals if you want,,,,,, I choose to love mine thank you very much
@chelsea7755 I'm grateful for the mice, voles, and rats that my cat hunts in my suburban neighborhood. The crazy level of development has recently routed the predators that did the job. Now people are laying poison everywhere which is NOT great for the owls that are left. A well-fed cat is NOT (usually) the problem in suburbia. The feral populations are skillfully managed by the catch-neuter-and-release programs (which include regular food drops too).
I believe the messaging can be much more nuanced than it is. The common message is to blame CATS for drops in the bird population. Demonizing outdoor cats won't save the birds from urban development and FROM OTHER BIRDS! Cats are the least of their problems.
@@pheresy1367f your cat isn’t properly trained to not hunt birds then it shouldn’t be outside. It could also get a fatal disease, especially if there’s poison being put down. Once a cat is already used to the outdoors it’s hard to make them an indoor cat again which is why it’s important to research owning a pet before getting one. Cats are a huge contributor to the problem, there’s no point denying that now. She’s tolerant because she has no choice
@@KravMike08 domestic cats are not bred to live in the outdoors. It’s your duty as a cat owner to properly train them not to hunt animals that could have parasites and to give them an enriching indoor space. Would you let a dog roam free with no guidance? Before adopting a cat you need to do the bare minimum of research. I hope you have pet insurance.
@@BirdaeBlue lololololol
I didn't adopt a cat
I rescued a tiny little black fur ball that some human abandon at a gas station in the dark of a cold rainy night in November right next to a major highway where she was certainly going to die
Would YOU lock yourself up in your house for eternity?¿?
She is nature's creature not a thing that can be controlled
She has a wonderful life here on the river where she has unlimited space to roam and play with the added bonus of a loving human and a roof over her head and a comfy bed to sleep in (if she wants)
No I would not let a dog roam freely
I would not have a dog
Dogs go outside and shit in your yard and then go back tomorrow and eat that shit then lick your face with that tongue
I'll take a pass on dogs thank you very much
Me and my orphan assassin are very happy here on the river and don't need you or anybody else thinking they know better than we do telling us how to live....... We're good!¡!¡!¡!¡
Keep a cat inside,,,,,,,,, SMH
I'm not Hitler but it sounds like you are
Mine is 19 years old and lives outside and he does it very well so I don’t really see the problem . Even the vet told us that he is very healthy
My Bombay, “Friday” is about 4 years old now. Live in the suburbs, has only been inside a handful of times when it gets too cold. Crack the garage, where he comes in and out at his will. Got many “spots/beds” for him in there as well as another on our patio where he sleeps lots of the day. Hunts in the evening and will follow us as we walk our dog. Very smart cat, definitely enjoys being outside hunting and observing wildlife rather than inside looking at some drywall lol. Coyotes a problem as live on a golf course where they love to come out at night but this dude is so dark, he knows how to hide with the best of them.
You’re shamelessly admitting that your cat is apart of the main contributors to dying species of suburban wildlife and you live near coyotes? Domestic cats are not bred for the outdoors, hope you have pet insurance.
@@BirdaeBlue food chain, plus he would rather be outside that’s where he belongs.
@@noahgreen8871 he’s not apart of the natural food chain he’s a domestic animal that requires humans to survive that is under your care
@@BirdaeBlue he’s not, we didn’t go and buy him, we found him and outside cats deserve to live outside like they have for hundreds of years before domestication
@@noahgreen8871 fair enough
I know a lot of people want to please their cat by letting them outdoors, but I think it's very important to count the possible costs. My Bombay has escaped a few times and while I feel bad for him, I strive to make his indoor life the absolute best and he is generally very happy. Count the cost: illness, FLEAS! (I refuse to put a chemical laden flea collar on a cat) wild animals, and possible theft of your black beauty. Outdoors= Vet Bills too at some point. My Mr Mooney was a rescue and 6 months old when I got him. He was used to going outside. But it didn't take long for him to choose me as his Number One. It didn't take long to get him used to the idea that we don't do outdoors here. Sure, he'd like to run outside if I left the door open, but he's not depressed or sad, he's thriving! They can be trained, especially when they love you like crazy ❤ they don't always like your decision but they respect and trust you. They're similar to children in those respects (I have 2 grown kids and one at home) ...I wouldn't send my young children out into potential dangers and I won't send my fur babies out either. Thanks for these beautiful videos showcasing the wonderful 'Bombaby' cat.
My Bombay cat is an inside outside cat he doesn't go near the road and loves dry cat food I only let him out when the temperature is going to be 70+ but never over 98 he gets plenty of exercise outside
Mine doesn’t even let me go to the bathroom alone, he is my shadow 😭
i've wanted a cat for so long (still don't have one but..) i plan to have one when i'm a bit older because my household doesn't allow cats.
Haha, my cat's name is Hunter and he thought the narrator was calling him. He says meow.
My bombay is outdoor, he runs the neighbourhood of cats 😭
My bombay wants to go outside so bad all the time. I take him out on a leash. He immediately meows to go back inside. Sigh.
My Bombay accepted me as his human. He is free roaming Tom bombay. He hunts, great mouser. Z stuborn. Enjoys attention.
My OUTDOOR Bombay is 25y4m, and still going strong. The outdoors is not the issue. It's how you care for them.
This video should be renamed "6 things you must never do with a cat" except for the first one. Outside is dangerous, yes, but many cats, independently of their race, are happier outside and Bombay cats have such a thick undercoat that the rain doesn't even bother them.
I love my Bombay kitty named Licorice 🐾🐈⬛️ He is so smart and playful. He has beautiful shiny fur 😍
We found our Bombay as a stray on our ranch in Montana, he could never stay inside and loves to hunt outside, he chooses when to go and come and will ask anyone to let him in by going to a window where people will see him and jumping onto it.
Well this proves my cats a Bombay I love her
My friends 14 year old Bombay is super sweet, She LOVES laying on my lap and purring!
My bombay cat is an indoor outdoor cat. She loves my yard and does not stray. I think that if not outside, cats should have a catio so they can be outside.
My Bombay is so clingy lol and I adore her
Planning on getting a Bombay as it seems like the perfect kind of pet for me, I wanna name him Toothless
My Bombay follows me everywhere and I can take her for walks without a leash. And she knows that at 5:15 we go out and dinner at 6. She stands at the meows “out”. Very strange.
Maybe she was a human friend or family member in a past life. ❤
My 2 year Bombay knows my routine and wakes me at 4.00 am every morning.
My Bombay loves being outside with me
Got adopted by a Bombay cat just over the weekend. Female just over being a kitten and not quite an adult, she was at the top of the stairs,, meowing at me, thought she was feral at first, and wanted to get by me, got out of the way, she was waiting for me to sit down on a step so she could show her affectionate side. Brought in in my apt. And let her get used to the place. All was good. Went out a few hours later to get my mail, and liw and behold came across a bombay cat looking exactly like her. It meowed and showed the same characteristics so I said hey kitty how'd you get out. Turned out it was another Bombay cat the same same size and age, it was a male this time. Brought him in to meet the other Bombay cat, i no hissing or any fighting. Just acted like they already knew each other, think they both were from the same litter and just abandon. They knew how much of sucker I was and haven't regretted having them since.
My cat does go out, but stays on front porch to watch sunset or maybe sun bathe in backyard. He prefers to stay in the house - especially at night and snuggled up to one of his humans. For 3 years he never went near or out the dog door, and one day he did. However, he isn’t like most cats and goes out exploring. He also comes when you call his name. And when I was training dog to do sit or to turn on command, I realized he was doing it (wanted the freeze dried treats was giving the dog), so he will sit on command. Trips people out.
Lol her and I play tag everyday cause she's a little chunky, good for both of us.
My neighbourhood Bombay cat keeps poop 💩 in my garden 🪴😢😢😢
Blessings to all cat lovers!😊
"Don't let your cat outside" is good advice for anyone who wants their cat to stay alive. Around here, we have hawks, owls, coyotes, fisher cats, and cars as prime dangers. Also, I've come to agree that dry food is not good for them...
I have this cat for 2 years and it is true so smart Intelligent cat ever. And verry loving cat loyal and can find the owner someone kidnap them. They love to Hunting pageant even we give them good to much
I ran this video mostly to look at the Bombays and think of our boy.
My Bombay used to go out side but no way!! It's to dangerous I have such a bond with her she's 16 sweet years old
I just got my first Bombay and have to agree with most everything stated about them. She is as sweet and friendly and playful as can possibly be! So, I'm enjoying watching these videos on them? I'm just a bit confused though? In your video you say, "not to let your Bombay kitties go outside and yet, "your video shows a few shots of Bombay's OUTSIDE"? And as you put it, they are "natural animals"!! I'd love it, if I could let her out in my yard in the daytime and back inside at night? Any thoughts on that? She has lived inside my house for about 2 months now, and she's only about 4-5 months old!!
I once left him alone for just a week but was with other family friends.
When I returned he didn't come near me for days, clearly upset by ny absence 😀
My Bombay cat diesel, lives mostly indoors now, she is super happy and really good friend, she is 8 years old looks younger 👍
My Bombay is street smart he can handle himself lol. He walks me to my car every morning and when my mom visits he walks her to her car. Also a tablespoon of coconut oil mixed in the food man's the coat so immaculate, soft & fluffy.
I have a feral Bombay didn't know she was one till watching Animal planet channel..my Father gave her name.. Licorice..perfect name for her ❤ and she's very loving and so smart and I keep her inside..She has a tall cat tower by sliding door she loves to watch the outside and I have a bird feeder and bird bath she can watch and enjoy
My first Bombay cat wasn't even my own
She was an outdoor cat that found me while sitting at my firepit in my backyard in 2018 around midnight, so I named her Midnight
She was with me through the 2020 quarantine and beyond. I have no idea who her owner because sometimes she'd have a collar or even a flea collar, and would smell like shampoo or cigarette smoke.
But I fed her, groomed her and let her sleep inside on cold nights. And she'd meow outside my bedroom window when she wanted inside.
Hehe, they're also called Velcro cats too.
My Bombay loves off gridding in the forests of BC. She's loaded with common sense and I can't imagine hindering her because somebody said . . . . Use common sense when someone tells you to go against nature. Plan your times and places and they will love you for it! Do outings together.
my bombay cat can't be brushed, even using catnip, he just go nuts and overexcited and rolls non-stop
One question for me do they enjoy being outside in winter
Thumbs up to ALL the comments.
Black cats rule! Especially Bombay cats.
I watched this video together with Mohrle, my Bombay cat.
My Bombay cat howls to go outside . So I allow him out now 3:07
Some good advice but it applys to all cats not just the Bombay. No matter the breed cats, like all animals, including people, can like or dislike different things. All living creatures have their own spirit and personality.
i got bombay cat Buzzo all i can say he loves me very much
Bombay cats are some of the best cats you can have as pets. They are so sweet.
“Don’t allow them outside” then show so many pictures of these cats outside. Personally I can’t imagine not letting my cat outside. She follows me wherever I go when I come inside she does as well.
They’re the cutest
I can’t imagine trying to keep my cat in. I kept her in for the first year but she got out eventually. She lives in the countryside now and has lots of birds and mice to hunt.
I found my baby boy outside he literally just appeared at my feet i scooped him up n he never went outside since its been 2 yrs n i want 20 more yrs with him which means looking thru the window is as close as he gets to be outside ❤❤❤
You can walk your cat too. Lot of people just keep their cats indoors but they love walks just like dogs do. Just get a nice harness.
My baby looks like a Bombay but I’ll never know for sure since he was abandoned at my sister’s house as a kitten.
They're Gorgeous
I had an outside cat who somehow lived 20 years. Rip Tootsie 😭
The reason cats are not let outside is to protect birds and wildlife as they are serial killers
But for the cat itself- it’s meant to be outside. 90% of cats thrive outside. It’s just the outside that doesn’t thrive with them 😊
Gee you should NEVER work with a laser with any cat....
My Bombay loves it outside and she won’t leave the yard
My Bombay cat hangs out only in the backyard. She doesn’t venture out, thankfully.
Can attest to the brushing. Lol. Binx sheds more than any cat I’ve ever owned. My goodness.
Branden hi good love cat bye 🙂🤟😻😺
My Bombay gets upset if he’s inside for too long.
Exactly 💯❤
I found my Bombay cat at. My. Old apartment outside with his brother and sister huddled up under someone’s car and I got to bathe him and he had many ticks on him so we got all those off him and he loves me and his name is max and he sleeps with me in my bed he will just go up to me and he loves looking outside at a window and loves to be warm and I love him so much I am Evan trying to train him with treats
Ooh, you make me live
Whatever this world can give to me
It's you, you're all I see
Ooh, you make me live now, honey
Ooh, you make me live
Oh, you're the best friend that I ever had
I've been with you such a long time
You're my sunshine and I want you to know
That my feelings are true, I really love you
Oh, you're my best friend
Ooh, you make me live
Ooh, I've been wandering 'round
Still dropped back to you (but I still come back to you)
In rain or shine you've stood by me, girl
I'm happy at home (happy at home)
You're my best friend
Ooh, you make me live
Whenever this world is cruel to me
I got you to help me forgive (ooh-ooh-ooh)
Ooh, you make me live now, honey
OOh, you make me live
Oh, you're the first one
When things turn out bad
You know I'll never be lonely
You're my only one and I love the things
I really love the things that you do (ooh)

Ooh, you make me live
(Live, live, live)
I'm happy (happy at home)
You're my best friend
Oh, oh, you're my best friend
Ooh, you make me live
Ooh, you're my best friend
Now the Bombay kitten and this little baby. I had to go to the hospital. She wouldn't come back inside the whole time. I was gone. She waited for me outside. And you wanna know what happened to her? She's got a bunch of white hairs on the back of her head and the back of her neck because I was gone. This is not a joke. You cannot leave these cats alone. You have to be with them all the time. So if you're older and you're sick, you don't want to bomb bagels, really don't because like what I just went through with my poor little baby. She was devastated when I was gone
