About Bombay Cat
Bombay Cat (Felis catus) is a breed of cat bred from a cross between American Shorthair and Burmese cats. It was first bred in the United States in the 1950s by Nikki Horner. Uniquely, Bombay cats love to be in control, which means they like to rule. In addition, this solid black cat loves to hide behind blankets or piles of laundry.
