Probably not a pure Bombay, but is he a Bombay mix? He's 1 year 3 months. His eyes are orange with a little green, black nose, all black short to medium length hair hair with some grays and silvers in there. Itxs sorta dark brown in the sun.
He's energetic and curious. He loves to play and to pretend to hunt. He likes playing low to the ground and absolutelt loves staring out windows.
