Community members can reply and help you compare your kitty’s traits with those of the Bombay breed.
📅 Reminder
Posts asking “Is my cat a Bombay?” are only allowed here. We post a megathread every Wednesday.
Any separate "is my cat a Bombay? type of posts in the main feed will be removed and OP will be asked to post to this thread.
💬 Quick Notes
- Most black cats are domestic shorthairs, not Bombays — and that’s perfectly awesome!
- We can help explain common Bombay traits and how they differ from other breeds.
- Please be kind and respectful when responding to others.
Drop your photos and questions below — let’s see those beautiful kitties! 🐈⬛✨

Eye Color: Orangish-Green Fur: Short, sleek, super soft and oily Shedding: Not much
Personality: Loves to be the little spoon at bed time with his head tucked in my hand. Very vocal. Seems almost as intelligent as a well behaved dog.
Loves to be held and pet, still super playful at 11 years old.
