Despite their name, Balinese cats have no connection to Bali — breeders chose the name because their graceful movement reminded them of Balinese temple dancers.
The longhaired variety of the Siamese, with the same svelte, elegant body, vivid blue eyes, and colorpoint pattern. Their coat is silky, lying close to the body without a woolly undercoat. Highly vocal, intelligent, and devoted.
