Javanese cats are named after the island of Java. Javanese result from a genetic accident resulting in Siamese with long hair. Javanese have a single coat, rather than the double coat more common in long haired cats, which makes grooming easier. Javanese do not have the traditional color combinations of Siamese; long haired Siamese with traditional coloring are called Balinese. (The island of Bali is next to the island of Java.)
