History of the
Balinese
Cat
The Balinese Cat is actually a long-haired
Siamese cat. In the 1930s
and 40s cat breeders wanted to produce a long-haired Siamese
by cross-breeding them with Angora Cats. After several generations
of cross-breeding, cat breeders were able to produce the desired
coat. The very first Balinese cats
had long, flowing coats; these
coats eventually shortened in length due to repeated cross-breeding
with the Siamese.
Appearance of
the
Balinese Cat
The Balinese
cat is a color-pointed cat and can be found in points seal,
blue, lilac, chocolate, tortie and lynx.
Personality of
the
Balinese
Cat
The personality of the Balinese can be
described as intelligent and curious, although less vocal
compared with its Siamese progenitors. Like the Siamese Cat,
Balinese cats hate being left alone for long periods of time
and can create mischief if left alone or bored. If you
are planning to choose a Balinese cat it is probably a good
idea to get a pair together.
