Bambino History

Bambino cats are the result of cross-breeding two specific breeds of domestic cats...The Sphynx cat, with the recessive hairless gene, and the Munchkin cat, with the dominant short-legged gene.

The International Cat Association has recognized the Bambino as an experimental breed while The Cat Fanciers Association (CFA) and the American Cat Fanciers Association (ACFA) have not.
