It costs about $100 to $300 to adopt a Bombay cat from an animal shelter or rescue organization. Conversely, it can be prohibitively expensive to buy a Bombay from a breeder. On average, you expect to pay between $800 and $1,500 for a pedigreed Bombay kitten from a reputable breeder.

The easiest way to adopt a Bombay is through a rescue group that specializes in the breed. You might also find a Bombay at your local animal shelter. A great place to start is by creating a breed search on Adopt a Pet. The search will show you all the available Bombays in your area.
