Re: Balinese Cat


They are just like Siamese except they have long hair. They come in most of the colours that Siamese do and are similar in temperament to the Siamese..

Here is a piccie I found of a Balinese cat

Re: Balinese Cat


With their long hair they would also need to be regularly groomed .......

Re: Balinese Cat


We used to live near one of these. Very beautiful and exceedingly friendly. Like most of the oriental type he seemed to be territorial (that may not be the right word - he knew where he lived, knew the edge of the area he was happy in and wouldn't move beyond it). He was often to be found sitting on his front lawn and was happy to come to the path and say hello.

I'd be tempted!

Re: Balinese Cat


Mica is very chatty and lovely, she always wants to be the center of attention and is a total diva. She follows me everywhere I go and doesn't think there could be anything more important in the world than her! She is such a sweetheart! She is closer to a person than a cat.
Here is a picture:

Re: Balinese Cat


Balinese are beautiful. If this really is a genuine reason for re-homing I would definitely go for it!!!
