Which cat breed is right for you?
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.

The Lykoi — Greek for "wolf" — is a partially hairless breed that first appeared naturally in domestic shorthair litters around 2010 and was developed by veterinarian Johnny Gobble in Vonore, Tennessee. This small-to-medium breed weighs 4–7 pounds and has a lean, angular build with a partially hairless face, sparse roan-patterned coat, and no undercoat. Their most striking feature is their "werewolf" appearance — the thin, grizzled black-and-white coat reveals patches of skin, and they periodically molt their entire coat before regrowing it.
Lykoi cats are intelligent, loyal, and surprisingly outgoing — they exhibit strong hunting instincts and love to stalk, chase, and pounce on toys. They bond deeply with their families and are affectionate without being clingy, though they may be initially wary of strangers. They can get along with children and other pets when properly socialized, and their unique combination of dog-like loyalty and cat-like independence makes them fascinating companions.
