Bombay Cat

For starters, I'd like to kick things off with my most prominent physical attribute? I look like a miniature wild cat.

Apart from my striking, jet-black coat, I also have a few other characteristics that've earned me the nickname "parlor panther" from my admirers, which I'll tell you about in a short while.

My head is fairly round and I've got ears that are somewhat pointy. Unlike other felines, I don't have any prominent cheekbones to flaunt.

What I like to show off though are my mysterious eyes that glow in a radiant copper or golden hue. They even look like gemstones if you stare at them long enough.

My parents told me that while my almond-shaped eyes may have been already radiant when I was a baby, they become more and more intense each passing day.

I have a broad muzzle and my nose is shaped like a round button. My chin is somewhat circular as well, which adds a certain softness to my panther-like look. As for my coloring - I am straight up striking. All of me is pure, stunning, gleaming b-l-a-c-k. Nothing is left out. Even my nose leather and paw pads are wondrously pitch black.

The coloring definitely adds even more regal appeal to my look. 'Cause as you probably know, black is beautiful. Not to mention it goes with everything.

Honestly, I don't really have a problem living with people whether they're first time cat owners or they have a big family with lots of pets and young children. I am a very amiable cat and won't find it a bit tricky to be best friends with all the family members in the household.

Now we've got that settled, I just want to have regular playing and petting times during the day. Although my disposition is far from clingy, I need to have at least a few minutes to bond with my humans through games, learning tricks and even leisurely walks outside.

That's not too much to ask, methinks.
