I had the pleasure of knowing an American Bombay. She was an amazing cat – smart with a remarkable personality. Never seen a cat since that could instantly own a room the way she did.
Incredible 😍 cat 😺.
Liked and subscribed!
As a 2 year volunteer at a cat shelter, I can attest that the information contained therein is absolutely true. Male black cats even more so.
Ok… if the video is about Bombay cats, why have you used a black domestic shorthair on the thumbnail?
Two of my three are the perfect image of Bombay cats. But since both were rescued from the streets, I can't be sure 100%. It doesn't matter since my boy and my girl are the best thing that has happened to me in years. I really wish the stigma would disappear once and for all
I have a Bombay named Sterling
They are affectionate and very communicative
I need one!!!
We have a Bombay named Sam! We found him outside when he was a kitten a few years ago. He is amazing.
I have a black bombay cat. She is sweet, adorable, and VERY smart. I adore her. Whenever I am in the bathroom, she brings one of her little foam balls to me so we can play kick ball! She's done it since she was about 8 months old. She is five years old now and its still one of our favorite daily routines
I had 3 Bombays. 2 American and 1 British. Now I'm down to 1 American he's a sweetheart. My community has 1 stray American Bombay. She doesn't trust humans enough to touch her but enough to be a foot from her.
From childhood i've loved black cats 🤩
My Bombay cat name is Gypsy.
bombay cats are one of the best
Black cats are beautiful.🖤🐈⬛
The sweetest animal, not just cat mind you, I have ever known was a Bombay named Egypt. He was all about the lovin'. Not a mean bone in him. Lived to be 22. He has been gone 3 years and we still miss the old man.
Black cats are the best kept secret in pet ownership. They are highly intelligent, intensely affectionate, and have the best personalities.
I have a Bombay named Remy. He is exactly like this video described. He turned 19 in June and I enjoy everyday with him and he adores his special needs human sister! 😅❤
My cat Mio is definitely majority Bombay. She is such a sweetheart and easily the best cat i ever owned. She is very demanding of my attention and will brave anything just to get my attention. She has to have access to any room im in or she howls. When i leave and come home shes waiting for me and then tries to get me to follow her to our favorite armchair where we cuddle and i brush her. Such a sweat cat.
They are also pretty heavy. Mine is 20 pounds which makes trying to get a place for myself in bed a challenge.
As someone who lives with one of these unparalleled beauties, no lies detected.
Please mention their one weakness next time: ear infections.
Deep ear exams aren't part of the standard vet exams.
If the beans are black, keep those ears clean!!
You keep saying they are all pure black, yet I keep seeing little white patches. Why is that? I had a mixed breed Bombay, she was a medium length domestic with the striking orange eyes. She was also polydactyl. She had 5 tiny white patches around her coat and 1 white whisker so I called her Persephone.❤ She also had a little heart shaped nose😻🖤
heat-sink kitty….. my neighbor has a mini panther.
My male young cat called Leo is a mixed Bombay cat black and white he is full of energy climbs trees is always on the go he is a UK Bombay he is six months old we love him to bits
All this arcane cat lore! Rubbish! A cat is a cat. They just show up looking for a handout – manipulative, ass kissing freeloaders!
I actually had one come to my country home as a stray! I had her for years.
I named my female Bombay cat Blacka. Her beautiful black coat was like velvet.
We have a smokey coat Bombay / Russian blue cat with copper eyes and faint ghost tabby stripes. She is the single most affectionate cat to exist and her coat is like fresh cashmere! Wife and I always said that she looks like a mini panther, and it’s nice to learn that was intentional!
Several years ago , as I sat in my late Old Neighbors living room his front door propped open to facilitate the Felines coming and going, a Black Female Feline walked in , looked around and said " this will do " she never left until she passed away. Spook aka Pook aka Pookie aka Pookie Girl Friend lived to sleep in my lap and would come running when she heard my truck pulling in. Black fur to the core she was and is a total Sweet Heart. Love You Pook.
I love all cats ( big and small ) but I’ve always had a special place in my heart for black cats 🐈⬛ ❤
I THINK ABOUT TALKING KITTY CAT SYLVESTER (RIP) SUCH A BEAUTY!
My current house tiger is a gorgeous little one eyed calico but my previous cat-named Porkchop-was a British Bombay who lived to a ripe old age.Even the vet would comment how he looked just like a mini panther.I love all cats!
I LOVE THE SOLID BLACK BOMBAY CATS!
Solid black cats originally came from Egypt.
I've loved all the cats that have been part of my life but none as much as my Bombay. She was the most amazing, clingy, loving, playful cat ever. Not sure if it was just mine, but they also seem to be the alpha cat. Mine ran the house like a drill sergeant. And yeah, as she got older and the bones ached, she took long naps in the sun turning her somewhat sable. I miss her the most. I never bonded with an animal like I did with her. Miss her so much
Hello dear,We'd like to invite you to create a content video after receiving our samples. Would you be interested?
I've had cats of every color imaginable. I loved them all, but the black cat that has now taken over my home is a little miracle. Intelligent, quiet, and very empathetic.
I HAVE A BOMBAY!! She's a hand-full, though.
We had a Bombay and a Tuxedo from the same litter. Ebony, the Bombay was my guardian. She slept with me a lot of nights and would mark me as hers numerous times. She had a white lockete that we have not seen duplicated. But there were a few in you video with similar lockets.
I'm involved in cat rescue and I've had many wihch became exclusively my cat. Three black cats are in among that number. The first was a Bombay, that I logically named Bombay. The second was Panther, whom I adopted at 1 year old, a large long furred black cat who lived to be 18 1/2. That cat saved my life, and I began rescuing cats. My present black cat, the love of my life, is Queenie, whom I adopted 8 1/2 years ago.
I Adopted a Black Cat 🐈⬛️ Blacks Cats are BEAUTIFUL 😊
Have a tuxedo
I’ve got a female Bombay and she really does look like a small panther. Sleek body, long legs. A beautiful cat.
Aww so beautiful 😻
Not our Bombay. He took 6 months before he would socialize with us at all. He is still extremely skittish and runs away from us. He does love attention when I can catch him calmly.
My little buddy is named Thackery "Binx". There are times when the only thing you can see are his eyes. Definitely a Velcro Child.
I learned a lot about my own British (just realized through this video she is British version) Bombay cat we have been together for a decade almost, now, and she is absolutely incredible. People think she is dumb, often, she is in fact very intelligent and trainable. Extremely observant, she is, not dumb. And I find this video very true in many regards and I am happy to hear they have a long lifespan, she seems very healthy and happy and sleeps with me every night and at 8 years old we moved to a house with carpet and I trained her to use a scratching pad by demonstrating with my own nails the motion, because my roomate mentioned she was clawing the carpet. I thought myself to be crazy , the next day, while thinking about my demonstration to her. My roomate messaged me, thankful she had begun using the scratching pad that day, I was mindblown. She understood. And she can open doors, indeed. We actually don't know how because she does it randomly when in my room only when she wants to roam about when I am gone. So I don't have a problem with it. I love her. Her name is Raven. I got her at a shelter. She burst forth to the gate of her cage and apparently had been returned before and was there the longest from a small kitten to almost a year old maybe. She chose me and is the best cat I've ever had. The girl at the shelter cried because she said Raven was normally afraid of everyone therefore they returned her. I'll be here till the end for her, or maybe she will for me, only God knows. Peace.
My Bombay cat is so calm and I cannot believe she is so special
I have had cats all my life and mostly rescue but some exotics. My "little boy" is a Bombay but with Gold/green eyes. Pure black! This is THE MOST intelligent and loving cat I have ever had. The only thing I have a rough time with is that Maxwell Smart is like having a human baby! I've had those too and this cat behaves like a human. Velcro is the right word. He is my whole life but I must be attentive 24/7 or I get bullied! He seems to know when I have a migraine and then he sleeps next to my head. He makes me laugh and wants me to hold him exactly like a human baby while he snores away. I would not ever get tired of him through an eternity as he IS my child. The most spiritually and emotionally aware cat I have ever seen! Black cats are the best! … and yes I rescued him on Halloween night when he was 3 months old.
