No. The Javanese cat is a short-haired breed, belonging to the genus *Bali/Javanese*, originating in the United States and first appearing in 1940. Its fur covers a lean body, and its tail is curled and chocolate-colored.
Javanese cats are medium-sized, but heavier than Siamese cats. They have long, slender bodies with long limbs, elegant yet muscular. Their necks are long and slender. Similar to Siamese cats, Javanese cats have deep blue eyes and pointed coats. The coat color is even, without markings or non-striped birthmarks. Varieties are the same as those of the Oriental type. Their eyes are green, except for white Javanese cats which have deep blue eyes. Pointed Javanese cats have deep blue eyes, and the recognized varieties are the same as those of Siamese cats.
