Bahraini Dilmun
I don't have any pictures of this cat yet - sorry! The Bahraini Dilmun cat is a small island just off the east coast of Saudi
Arabia in the Persian Gulf. The spotted Bahraini Dilmun cat comes in all
different colors from dark brown, bronze, cinnamon, ginger, silver, etc. and the
cats occur in solid colours also. Recently the typical Bahraini cat has been
called the 'Dilmun Cat' after the name of ancient Bahrain. Due to
the extreme summer temperatures in Bahraini, these cats have large ears and
short fur. In the summer the Bahraini Dilmun cat will sleep all day and come out
in the evening, and in the cooler months they are more active at day time. These
cats are generally fond of water, unlike most other cats. |
