Which cat breed is right for you?
The Bambino is a relatively new designer breed created by crossing the Sphynx with the Munchkin, resulting in a hairless cat with short legs. This small breed weighs just 5–9 pounds and has the characteristic wrinkled, nearly hairless skin of the Sphynx combined with the Munchkin's shortened limbs. Their skin comes in all colors and patterns, and they may have a fine peach-fuzz covering.
Bambinos are outgoing, affectionate, and surprisingly energetic despite their short legs — they love to run, play, and explore. They are extremely social cats that crave human contact and will curl up under blankets or on laps for warmth. They get along well with children, dogs, and other cats, making them lively and entertaining companions.

The Bombay was created in the 1950s by breeder Nikki Horner in Louisville, Kentucky, who crossed sable Burmese with black American Shorthairs to produce a cat resembling a miniature black panther. This medium-sized breed weighs 6–11 pounds and has a compact, muscular build with a sleek, jet-black coat. Every feature is black — from their glossy, patent-leather-like fur to their nose leather and paw pads — contrasted only by their striking copper or gold eyes.
Bombays are outgoing, attention-loving cats that thrive on being the center of their family's world. They are remarkably adaptable and get along well with children, dogs, and other cats — often becoming the social director of the household. Their intelligence and trainability make them excellent candidates for learning tricks, and they are known for greeting visitors at the door.
