Balinese Characteristics and Temperament
The Balinese has the sleek, athletic body of the Siamese with long elegant lines. Its semi-long coat is silky and close-lying without thick undercoat, giving it a fluid, graceful appearance. The tail features a spectacular plume. Classic colorpoint colors include seal, blue, chocolate and lilac, with intense sapphire blue eyes.
The Balinese is an extremely vocal, affectionate and intelligent cat. Like its Siamese cousin, it loves to "converse" with its family. It thrives in apartments in Montreal, Laval or Gatineau with enough companionship and mental stimulation. With a life expectancy of 12 to 15 years, the Balinese is a devoted companion for Quebec families who appreciate a communicative and affectionate pet.
