Depend dropdown bootstrap-select

I'm using bootstrap-select and I want to have dependant dropdown. The first is category :

<select class="selectpicker" id="category">
     <option value="1"> Fruit </option>
     <option value="2"> Animal</option>
</select>

The second is a list of items, the class indicate the category

<select class="selectpicker" id="items">
     <option class="1" value="1"> Banana </option>
     <option class="1" value="2"> Apple </option>
     <option class="2" value="3"> Cat </option>
     <option class="2" value="4"> Dog</option>
</select>

My goal is when the user select a filter one or more category it's filter also the items dropdown

This code works for one selection but not for 2. How can I do that ?

<script>
  $("#category").change(function () {
    var category= $(this).val());
    $('option').each(function() {
    if ($(this).hasClass(category)) {
      $(this).show();
    } else {
      $(this).hide();
    }
    });
    $('.selectpicker').selectpicker('refresh');

  });
</script>

You need to loop through items select options but in your current code you are checking the option of both select-boxes hence the values which do not have required class are getting hidden from category select-box as well .Instead change $('option') to $('#items option') and then onces value is change you can set some default option as selected using .val("default").trigger('change') to items select-box.

Demo code :

$("#category").change(function() {
  var category = $(this).val();
  //loop through second selects options
  $('#items option').each(function() {
  //if option has default class
    if ($(this).hasClass(category) || $(this).hasClass("default")) {
      $(this).show();
    } else {
      $(this).hide();
    }
  });

  $('.selectpicker').selectpicker("refresh");
  $('#items').val("0").trigger('change');//set default value as selected


});

<select class="selectpicker" id="category">

  <option value="1"> Fruit </option>

  <option value="2"> Animal</option>

</select>

<select class="selectpicker" id="items">
  <!--added this just to keep default value selcted-->
  <option class="default" value="0"> --Select-- </option>
  <option class="1" value="1"> Banana </option>

  <option class="1" value="2"> Apple </option>

  <option class="2" value="3"> Cat </option>

  <option class="2" value="4"> Dog</option>

</select>
