Javanese
Javanese cats are faithful companions who will follow you from room to room, chatting at you along the way. The Javanese shares many similarities with the Siamese, but there are subtle differences between the two.
Personality
Javanese cats, like their Balinese relatives, are playful, devoted, and always eager to tell you their views on life, love, and what youÂ’ve served them for dinner. Javanese (and their Siamese relatives) have a fascination with food, and, while some will burn off the extra calories in playful antics, care must be taken that the less active donÂ’t turn into butterballs.
