Permanent partner

The Brazzama cat is the only vervet cat that forms a permanent pair bond. This means that once a Brazzameer cat has found a mate, they will always remain faithful to each other.

Communications

Brazzamer cats can communicate both vocally and visually. Staring is a form of threat and when they yawn it means they are tense or feel threatened. In males, showing their canines is also an expression of tension or threat.
