а я, кажется, нашла к кому относятся наши коты: действительно балинез, [U]НО[/U] - традиционный (или старотипный) или тайпер.
[COLOR="RoyalBlue"]Like the Traditional Siamese, the Traditional Balinese has a heavier more robust body, a rounder head and smaller ears than the modern Balinese. The modern Balinese has a far more slender and refined body and head with large ears. The Traditional Balinese has medium to long hair (2+ inches) over its entire body while the modern Balinese has short hair over its body and long hair only on its plumy tail. Different people prefer different types.
Over time the changing whims of the show ring have valued one body type of cat and then abandoned it for another. At the present time, most cat judges favor the modern versions of every breed, be it Balinese, Siamese, Burmese, Himalayan or Persian. The Traditional and Classic Cat International (TCCI) recognizes and actively promotes all of the traditional types because they believe that the traditional types represent more authentic and robust examples of each breed.[/COLOR]
порода признана по системам OFA и WACC. ничего не понимаю про системы, но у нас вроде какие-то другие.
в общем, надо просто их любить такими
. как, наверное, любых кошек.
