Balinese cat

balinese cat

The Balinese cat belongs to the domestic cat breed.

Her graceful gait, reminiscent of Balinese temple dancers,
the Balinese cat owes its name to.

She is the result of a cross between long-haired Siamese cats and Angora cats.
Since the long-haired Siamese cat distorted the typical characteristics of the Balinese cat, it was killed or no longer used for breeding until the 1940s.

The Balinese cat`s voice is not as loud as its ancestor
but also communicative. She also has a strong urge to be active, is very playful
and is adept at acrobatic tricks.
