Multitude decorations and an attractive design combined with the dazzling beauty of a Javanese cat make it an unforgettable gift.

Javanese Cats have the same nature as their ancestors – Oriental Cats. These reportedly good hunters are lively, playful, intelligent and easy-to-train. They do not feel comfortable when left alone, caged or left without care for a long period of time. Only the company of the family makes them feel good and safe. Inquisitive, nosy, confident and quite noisy Javanese Cats are notably fond of making friends. This breed is a cross of the Balinese Cat and the Oriental Shorthair. The result of the cross is a hybrid resembling the Balinese Cat, but having a one-colour fur. Due to the fact that Balinese cats are the ancestors of this breed, they were given the name after Java, which is the neighbouring island of Bali.
