About The Burmese

The Burmese is a breed of domesticated cats descended from a specific cat, Wong Mau, who was found in Burma in 1930 by Dr. Joseph G. Thompson. She was brought to San Francisco, California, where she was bred with Siamese males. Through selective breeding to Siamese, it was established that the Burmese is a distinct breed. This breed was first recognized in 1936 by the CFA. Lighter colored kittens were occasionally produced and eventually the American breeders requested recognition from CFA for these "dilute" colors; first, as another breed named Malayan, then later as a dilute division of Burmese. The breed was recognised by the UK Governing Council of the Cat Fancy in 1952.

The Burmese is considered a foreign shorthair. They have gold or yellow eyes and a very short satiny coat. They are heavier than they look, as they are very muscular. By the standards of pedigreed cats they are long-lived, many reaching 16 to 18 years.

Burmese have very strong voices and are very affectionate, forming a strong bond with their owners. Other characteristics include an inclination to climb curtains and sit on doors. They are easily trained to use a scratching post to help conserve the owner's furniture and carpets. Burmese cats are very friendly and curious even towards complete strangers. They are athletic, brave and humorous, and may show remarkable ingenuity, particularly in finding warm places. Burmese cats tend to follow their owners everywhere. Some Burmese may like fruit or vegetables. They normally do not need to be groomed; petting is enough. They are loyal and respectful to their owners. Even when older, Burmese cats will be playful.

Burmese females tend to be princesses. With her beautiful big eyes and sassy personality, she will have you trained in no time. The boys are true lap cats and have that laid-back personality. They both love to greet your guests at the door and follow you around the house to "help" you do your chores. Anything that includes you interacting with them, whether it is watching TV or doing the laundry, your Burmese will be there with you. Most Burmese have been known to "fetch" small favorite cat toys. They also love other animals, whether it be another Burmese or a even a dog or another cat. Whether male or female, Burmese are true people cats
