Javanese Cat Behavior/Personality/feeding
History
The Javanese cat breed has originated from Siamese cats. This breed
was developed by breeders who wanted to take the qualities of the
Siamese and alter the coat and colors to their liking. One of the
foundation cats of the Javanese breed was created by crossing a Balinese
to a Colorpoint Shorthair. The outcome was a cat with all the characteristics
of a Siamese but with a longer coat length and a color outside the
basic four (i.e. seal, blue, chocolate, and lilac). These colorful
longhairs were recognized by the CFA in 1987.
Appearance
Though the Javanese are almost identical to Siamese the major difference
lies in the color schemes and hair lengths. As compared to the Siamese,
the Javanese have softer lines and less extreme body type because
of the longer hair. The Javanese are medium-sized and have fine bones
and firm shoulders.
Personality
Javanese are curious, intelligent, excellent communicators and playful.
They have a fascination for food and love high places. They are very
talkative and have loud voice. Javanese are responsive and interactive
in nature and are easy to train.
