      My British Bombay is less vocal, and more communitive in a sense. He will get vocal around feeding time and if his water is empty, but other than that, he's only vocal to get my attention. Once he has it, it's hard to get him to be vocal, maybe he's too focused on me giving him pets lol

    My Bombay was feral. He’d sit on a rock outside in the yard and squeak at us. Slowly we started feeding him and he drew closer…finally, after a few weeks he let me touch him…that was quite an evening. Since then he has come inside, sleeps with us and will accept affection from us anytime. He is a gorgeous cat. How lucky I got to adopt a Bombay in the neighborhood! I’ve never seen such an intelligent cat. He’s like a dog…follows me around…likes sitting with my husband and I out on the porch. It makes him so content. I can’t recommend this strain of cat enough. They have great personalities.

    I had no idea this cat was a Bombay. I went to the shelter to find a cat and Midnight was in the room with feline leukemia positive cats. I live alone with no other pets so I figured it would be fine to deal with the feline leukemia. The vet said to try re-testing her in 9 months, since a healthy cat may be able to fight off a mild + infection and I also researched it and the in-house test they use has a lot of False positives. It was my girlfriend who saw Miss Midnight and said " Oh, you have a panther!" I looked it up and I was surprised that these kittens are very expensive to buy and rare. She is 8 years old and I cannot imagine someone giving her up to a shelter, but she fits all the descriptions. She is the most affectionate and smart cat I have ever had! True story, I paid extra money to have her bloodwork sent out for the more definitive feline leukemia test and it came back NEGATIVE, so she is super healthy and beautiful. And you are right, she is in my face-- literally-- if I am slow waking up in the morning, she puts her face right up to mine and starts purring and licking my face, even tries to nuzzle under the covers when I try to hide my head to get a few more moments of sleep! Midnight is active and playful, but I agree, this cat is not for someone who wants one of those aloof, independent cats. They crave affection and cannot seem to get enough. Which is fine with me, lol.

    My Bombay tomcat is by far the best companion I've had so far. He is playful, smart and chatty. He even learned how to open doors though he is only 1 year old. I didn't even know he was a specific breed when I found it hidden in the engine bay of my car 10 months ago. I thought he was a stray black kitten. I just took him home and it turned out to be the best decision for both of us. I found out that he is a Bombay at the vet, but even if he weren't, I would still love him just as much.

    I have a black rescue cat. I have no idea what breed he is but he acts like a Bombay cat. He is very devoted to my dad. Follows him around all the time and is never far from him. If dad is gone for a day or more, Spooky will get mad and ignore dad for a few hours before coming around to purr and rub on him. If dad is gone for an hour, Spooky will come in my room and be with me, since he needs to be with someone. Spooky is not a lap cat but he is a sit next to you cat.
    He's also very stocky and robust, but he's not small. He also sheds like crazy. I think he's likely part Bombay verse full-blooded.

He loves bird videos and whenever a nature documentary is on, he sits on the coffee table and watches it. Hilariously, he is not a good hunter. Jasmine, our other cat, is an excellent mouser. She has strong material instincts, so she taught Spooky to hunt but it didn't take. It is very likely that Spooky is part Bombay. His purr can also be super loud and I read that Bombays have a loud purr.

They spend the day napping but when awake they follow you everywhere, forget going to the toilet alone! my cat's have moved in a radiator hammock and a cat tree to the bathroom/toilet. They never tire talking to you. They are house cat's but my cats have access to the garden it's secure to stop them leaving. It's a large garden with lots of areas to hide from each other. They have health issues because they're pedigree. If you want a pedigree get two they love each others company. Check out reputable breeders as most come with genetic faults.

    I remember that I did get a black cat (looked most likely a Bombay or Domestic Shorthair) when she was pregnant, and afterwards, we had to return 4 kittens while she and another kitten (which was the most unique, since it was grey while the other kittens were black, some having white spots) stayed. However, after her spaying and her kittens growing up, she seemed to be aggressive. One day, she unexpectedly bit me when I pet her back (she still does so today, but it's been going on for almost 10 years). And later, she hissed at people who pet her in ways she didn't like. Overall, she is basically an introvert cat, as she always sleeps in areas where my family usually doesn't spend time at (while the grey cat sleeps anywhere he feels good at). Up to today, I have gotten used to knowing when and where she is fine with being pet or held.
    If she is a Bombay cat, I would assume that her previous owners were very ignorant of her, and she didn't have proper attention from her before she was somehow abandoned and then sent to a shelter while pregnant. This has, sadly, discouraged my family from approaching her, meaning that if she doesn't correct her attitude (which probably won't happen at all), she'll still have this problem.

    The Bombay is the cat version of a dog which is why I love them. Yes, they love their families, including other pets. So if you have a dog that gets along with cats that will minimize the separation anxiety. One thing to look out for if you want a black cat. Not all black cats are Bombays with the same traits. Bombays are all black including noses, paws, everything and their eyes really are striking. And of course there's the very affectionate personality. The first Bombay I met was at my vet's office. Out of all the people there this little boy picked me out and latched on to my arm to play with me. He was just too adorable. I would have taken him home with me but for my two Giant Schnauzers, a breed with a very high prey drive. At the least, particularly with my male, it would have been very dangerous for him. Bombays are a very new breed bred to look like panthers. Now If panthers were this friendly. They are NOT meant to be outdoors cats as they don't have the health constitution for the outdoors. But if you get a Bombay you ARE getting a furball of love. It will often seem like you've got a velcro cat rather than one who just wants his space and only really tolerates you.

    My Bombay seems to prefer dry food and pet treats over just about any kind of wet food. My other cat, not a Bombay, is just the opposite to the point she even doesn't seem to figure out what pet treats are for. It's hard when you get kittens, especially rescue cats, to know what kind of personality they will have later. It's been nearly a year and my two are finally acting like friends.

He is a very adventurous cat as he goes and roams around the neighborhood all night and loves laying on my stomach when he thinks i’m asleep.
    He is also very vindictive as he pees on any spot my grandma sits on frequently because she’ll always yelling at him and talking shit about him… I love him so much.

I've more than 10 cats so it's difficult to give attention to a specific one. But i give him time when I can. But the problem is my another male cat is become adult and Taranath can't tolerate him. He tries to attack him whenever his sees him. And also he attack me when i try to stop him. I don't know what to do. I love my all cats and i could never think to get rid of them. And it's becoming difficult to handle.

      One of my good friends had to leave their home and was temporarily rooming with someone who couldn’t take in their Bombay cat. I adopted their cat which he was about 4 years old at the time. The second I brought him home. We bonded instantly! After a few weeks he would jump on my back when I get home from work just to let me
      Know he misses me. He constantly wanted to be around me, every morning I wake up he’s staring at me with his huge yellow eyes. Or snuggled up under me. I swear it felt like we connected spiritually at times. He just made me want to talk and have conversations with him. And I swear he understood lol. Also very active. Always wanted me to play with him. So yes they will adapt to you if you show them love and admiration.

    This is my little buddy to a T. One of his nicknames is monkey boy because he LOVES to climb. We built him a two story catio with old driftwood we got from the beach and a cafe table that we got from someone that was moving out under an old reclaimed greenhouse for the top level and a 15 foot scratching post with perches going down to the bottom level. The bottom level has grass a chair for us to sit in and hang out and a sandbox for digging which he also loves to do. It connects to the house with a 50 foot catwalk. He loves to run full steam back and forth on the catwalk and sing for us. Owwwwwww woooooowww wooooow. He greets me at the door every day. Follows me everywhere and has a designated snuggle hour in the morning while I’m having my coffee when he sits in my lap and gets pets and scritches. He’s all things you’ve talked about. A small dude but a solid wall of muscle when you pick him up. Loves to sing and play with his toys and run and climb. Such a fun little buddy but kinda high maintenance

    I take issue with the medical ssues. All the other videos I have seen about Bombay cats say they are very resilent anh healthy. I see no evidence of things like arthritis or other pains.
    She is a very loving cat. But it is obvious that she has PTAS from her abuse, so she does not like to go outside, so Ii leave the door open for her to lay just inlide, watching the outside.
    I highly suggest getting a beautiful Bombay cat. Literally everyday, I thank Spirit for the wonderful gift she gave me. I was given her, a carrier and a bag of food because I am a veteran with 50% disability.

    I love mine so much!! My Sparticus is so lovable. If I bend over he runs across the room and jumps on my back. Since he is VERY big and heavy he almost knocks me over. He does like a lot of attention and gets along well with KleaKatraBella, my grey and white tuxedo girl. He regularly comes up to me when I sit on my couch because he wants to be held like a baby with his paws over my shoulder. He didn't meow the first year of his life. The 2nd year maybe a couple of times. Now he talks all the time.
    If you don't think a Bombay is for you then get a black domestic cat. They are adopted/rescued far less that other cats because of ridiculous superstitions. They are awesome too!!
    I believe both cats are large because I make their food. I NEVER feed my cats dry food except for high quality and as a treat ONLY. At 5 o'clock they get one teaspoon. They sit in front of me a half our before and stair at me until they get their treat. NO CATS SHOULD GO OUTSIDE except on a harness. They like to go for walks like a dog. They get cold easy so get them a bed and put a blanket over them.
    Go to catinfo.org and listen to Lisa Pierson DVM and Karen Becker DVM to learn how to feed your cat a proper diet. You can also listen to them on UA-cam. It's actually cheaper to feed them homemade food then buying expensive high quality food. I make it every 2 weeks and put it in containers into the freezer.
