Burmese cat (Burmese): characteristics of the breed, care and feeding

A cat-dog, a brick wrapped in silk, a lump of muscles with honey-colored eyes... These and many other, no less eloquent, epithets are used to describe an amazing, unusually elegant, intelligent animal - a short-haired Burmese cat. Their character, external and internal qualities make them ideal pets, the pride of their owners, and a decoration for their home.

There are several branches of the Burmese cat breed - Asian, American, European, Australian. Let's take a closer look at the representatives of the European Burmese, its appearance, character, features of maintenance and care.

History of the Burmese breed

The union of Burmese cats with people dates back to the times when representatives of this breed were considered sacred in their homeland. The homeland of Burmese cats is Burma (modern Myanmar), where the graceful animals were considered temples and were revered on a par with deities. According to legends, cats accompanied people during their transition to the kingdom of the dead. Keeping a cat in the house promised the owner prosperity and good luck.

The first Burmese were brought to San Francisco by Joseph K. Thompson in 1930. There were two of them: a male and a female, but the cat did not live very long, but the cat named Wong Mau was left alone and was included in the breeding program, the developers of which were Joseph K. Thompson, Billy Gerst, Virginia Cobb, as well as geneticist Clyde Keeler . The first mating was carried out with a Siamese cat Tai Mau, the second - with a brown kitten from the first litter. The babies of the third type were born and became the first representatives of the breed, which received the name Burmese.

In the mid-30s of the last century, the breed was recognized by the American Cat Fanciers Association (CFA) with the only color possible at that time - brown. However, in 1947, the breed was recalled due to the dishonesty of breeders who bred Burmese with representatives of Siamese cats. A year later, the first Burmese cats appeared in Great Britain and were recognized within 4 years. And in 1957, brown cats again received official status in the CFA.

Today there are two branches of the Burmese breed: American and European. Even crossing these two branches with each other is prohibited.

Character and habits

The Burmese cat is an ideal choice for those who are looking for a kind, affectionate, cheerful and loyal animal. The Burmese is incredibly active; even older cats of this breed take great pleasure in chasing sunbeams and flies.

Representatives of the Burmese are often called “cats with the soul of a dog.” Because they simply love to spend time with their owner, to participate in every moment of his life. Therefore, do not be surprised that it will be difficult to drive such a cat off your lap; it will follow you everywhere, and at night it will crawl under the blanket to sleep closer to the person.

An interesting feature: Burmese cats love all family members absolutely equally, but cats choose only one, who will become her favorite. Also, representatives of this breed very sensitively sense the mood of the owner and adapt well to it.

Compatible with children and other pets

Burmese cats get along well and get along well with other animals, be it dogs or parrots.

They also have wonderful relationships with children. Adults can rest assured that representatives of this breed will not scratch or hiss at children; on the contrary, they will happily take part in their games.

Description of the Burmese breed

Burmese are so unique that it is almost impossible to confuse them with other breeds. They outwardly resemble graceful pumas, but at the same time they are distinguished by their amiable character and playful disposition, which persists into adulthood.

Appearance: coat color and thickness, eye color, anatomical features

Despite the differences in the appearance of the American and European Burmese, the main features of their appearance are similar.

The Burmese cat is of medium size, muscular body, very harmoniously built. The back is straight, smoothly turning into a fairly long neck and a well-developed chest. The legs are quite thin, proportionate to the body, the hind legs are slightly longer than the front ones. The tail is of medium length, slightly tapering to a rounded tip.

The head is round in shape with large, widely set ears, rounded at the ends. The eyes are large, almost round, the iris can have shades from amber to yellow.

The Burmese's coat is short, satiny-silky, has virtually no undercoat, and lies tightly to the body. Always has a deep color.

It cannot be confused with any other breed

Colors

For the American Burmese, only 4 colors are recognized:

• sable (dark brown);
• champagne (chocolate);
• blue (bluish-gray);
• platinum (pale blue tone with lilac-pink coating).

The European Burmese has many more recognized colors:

• brown (warm dark brown);
• blue (bluish-gray with a pewter sheen);
• chocolate (from caramel to milk chocolate color);
• lilac (light gray with a pinkish tint);
• red (warm orange);
• cream (pastel cream);
• brown tortoiseshell (has black and red spots);
• chocolate tortoiseshell (milk chocolate coat has cream spots);
• blue tortoiseshell (bluish-gray coat with cream and light blue spots);
• lilac tortoiseshell (purple coat with light cream spots).

In both types of Burmese cats, color is temperature dependent. It changes depending on the ambient temperature: the colder it is, the darker the muzzle, back, tips of the paws and tail become.

The main differences in the appearance of American and European Burmese cats

In addition to color, there are several other features that make American and European Burmese different from each other.

1. Eyes. In the American Burmese they are large and round, as if surprised, while in the European Burmese the upper line of the eye is almost straight, with a slight slope towards the nose, because of which the animal’s gaze seems stern, as if from under its brows.
2. Ears. The American Burmese's ears are smaller, they are set higher and the distance between them is narrower than that of the European Burmese. At the same time, the ears of the European Burmese continue the line of the cheeks and have a slight tilt forward.
3. Head. The European Burmese has a slightly more elongated muzzle, similar to a blunt wedge, while the American Burmese has a more rounded head shape and a slightly flattened muzzle.
4. Torso. American women are more rounded and heavier in appearance, while European women are more graceful and sophisticated in appearance.
5. Limbs. As in the case of the body, the European Burmese's paws are long and thin, while the American representative's paws are denser and have a rounded shape.

Despite their different appearances, they have similar characters

Traditional and modern American Burmese

American Burmese, in turn, are divided into two more types: modern and traditional. During exhibitions they are rated the same, but they differ in appearance. In the modern type, the transition from the forehead to the nose is more pronounced, the muzzle itself is shorter and wider compared to the traditional type. In addition, the eyes of the modern Burmese are more convex, which gives the muzzle an almost doll-like expression.

Character traits

The main quality of the Burmese, which makes it such a popular breed, is its extraordinary devotion to its owner. It’s not for nothing that this animal is called a cat-dog. However, they also get along well with dogs. In fact, these graceful creatures love people very much, tolerate loneliness extremely poorly and almost never show aggression towards people. This is a companion cat, keenly interested in everything that happens in the house. She will always be where people are. Does not tolerate loneliness well; in the event of a long absence of its owners, it becomes very bored.

It's impossible not to fall in love with them

At the same time, Burmese cats are affectionate and playful, remain active until old age and will never refuse the opportunity to run after a toy. They are inquisitive, tirelessly exploring the surrounding space, quickly reacting to changes in the environment. A passing midge will definitely attract the attention of a Burmese, as will a rolled out ball and a sunbeam running along the wall.

The oriental fluffy beauty will become a companion in the child’s childhood games, will patiently endure the baby’s pranks and will hardly be able to afford to let out her claws even once.

A friend of mine got a Burmese cat long before her daughter was born. The young mother, quite naturally, was worried about how the cat, who was the only object of love in the family before the baby’s appearance, and her growing daughter would get along with each other. In fact, for the first couple of weeks, Cassie (that’s the cat’s name) watched the newborn from afar, gradually reducing the distance to the baby’s crib. When, at about three months of age, the baby burst into tears, and her mother left the room at that moment, Cassie went in search of the owner and very demandingly called her to the girl. But that wasn’t even surprising for me. The grown-up baby, quite expectedly, wanted to constantly touch the cat. She crawled after her pet with amazing speed and periodically grabbed her by the tail, then by the paw. Cassie patiently endured all the squeezing, which was not always gentle, and never scratched the child. If the girl’s attention became too intrusive, Cassie simply left: she jumped on the closet or hid in the back room. Now the baby is five years old, and Cassie is already seven and it seems they have become just friends. When a girl comes with one of her parents after kindergarten, the cat certainly goes out into the corridor to meet them, but first she rubs herself against the child’s legs and purrs something joyfully in her cat language. And watching them play together is a real pleasure.

The Burmese cat is a reliable and loyal friend

Burmese get along well with other animals in the house; they will never be the first to show aggression, but if necessary, they can stand up for themselves. At the same time, the Burmese cat always occupies a leading position.

Burmese are well trained, easily assimilate the requirements of the owner, quickly understand where to sharpen, when and in what place to relieve their needs.

Purchasing a Burmese kitten

When deciding to purchase a Burmese cat kitten, you need to understand that this must be a conscious and balanced choice. It is not recommended to purchase a Burmese kitten from someone else. If a potential owner wants to get a purebred kitten, then it must be purchased exclusively from a nursery. Only in this case can you purchase a healthy purebred kitten that can meet all the owner’s expectations.

Criterias of choice

When choosing a kitten, do not hesitate to ask the breeder about the character, nuances of keeping and the peculiarities of caring for the cat. You should also tell the seller about your expectations and goals. Usually, owners of trusted catteries are happy to select a kitten in accordance with the wishes of the potential owner.

1. The baby should be active, playful and mobile.
2. The kitten's fur is silky and shiny. Spots and medallions, as well as numerous white hairs in the color, are unacceptable. There may be faint stripes that disappear after six months. Over time, the baby's fur will acquire a darker shade.
3. Ears, eyes, nose are clean.

At what age should you buy a kitten?

It is best to purchase kittens older than three months, since at this age the baby can be weaned from its mother and has already received the necessary vaccinations.

Other purchase details

There is no need to pick up a kitten directly from the exhibition; it is better to visit the nursery and see the conditions in which the kittens are kept and the behavior of the babies in their familiar environment.

If you purchase a baby for subsequent participation in exhibitions, the breeder will select a show-class kitten, but if you just need an affectionate and loyal friend, then when choosing, you can be guided solely by personal sympathies.

Burmese kittens are very inquisitive

How to choose a kitten

You need to buy a Burmese kitten after it reaches 2-3 months . At this time, he gains independence and his immunity is strengthened. To choose a real Burmese kitten you need to pay attention to the following factors:

1. clear eyes;
2. clean ears;
3. activity;
4. shiny healthy coat;
5. fatness;
6. pink is the healthy color of the sky;

The curiosity of cats of this breed knows no bounds.

Keeping a pet

Keeping Burmese cats is not difficult, but requires knowledge of some features.

Nutrition

The quality of Burmese wool directly depends on the quality of food

The Burmese cat is not particularly picky about food, but the owner needs to know that it plays an important role in maintaining the health and activity of the cat, and also directly affects the lifespan of the graceful pet.

Quantity and composition of food

It is possible to provide food for a Burmese cat with both natural food and ready-made dry or canned food of high quality, that is, super premium class.

When feeding ready-made dry food, you should strictly follow the instructions on the packaging, measuring the recommended amount of food using a scale.

If the owner prefers to use canned food, usually one jar (80–100 grams) contains one serving of food.

Breeders and experienced Burmese owners recommend the following food for this breed:

• Pro Plan;
• Hill's;
• Eukanuba;
• Bozita;
• Nutro Choice;
• Iams;
• Innova Evo.

Quality cat food

Natural nutrition requires more time for preparation, variety in the diet and additional vitamin supplements. The basis of the diet is necessarily raw dietary meat, served to the pet after freezing and subsequent scalding with boiling water. A cat consumes 80–100 grams of meat per day, this is 80% of the total amount of food for the day. Dietary types of meat include white poultry meat, rabbit meat, beef and veal, as well as offal of these same animals. It is possible to include exclusively sea fish in the diet and no more than once a week.

You need to give your pet fermented milk products, hard-boiled egg yolk (no more than 2 pieces per week), fresh vegetables and herbs. These products make up the remaining 20% ​​of the total food, their total weight can be about 20 grams.

There should always be a sufficient amount of clean drinking water available to the animal.

How many times a day should you feed your pet?

An adult cat is usually fed twice a day; no additional feeding is required. If the animal has not eaten its portion within half an hour, the food is removed until the next meal. This is how the pet gets accustomed to the correct diet.

Kittens are usually fed at least four times a day until about sixteen weeks of age, then they are transferred to three meals a day, and by the age of one year the baby can already eat 2 times a day.

The role of a balanced diet in cat health

It must be remembered that diet directly affects the health and beauty of the cat. With a properly selected and balanced diet, the cat remains active, its fur shimmers beautifully. If the coat becomes dull (and in the Burmese this becomes noticeable quickly), then the diet should be reconsidered. You may need to consult a veterinarian and then select a different food or create a new diet.

Appearance care

Caring for a Burmese cat is not difficult, the main thing is to follow certain rules, then the beauty with oriental notes in her appearance will delight you with her beauty every day.

Brushing and bathing

The coat is short and close to the body and does not require special care. It is enough to comb your pet once a week using a special brush with small silicone spikes; twice a month you can comb it with a special comb for animals - a furminator with the smallest tooth size. During molting, increase the number of combings to 2-3 per week.

Burmese are bathed only when they become dirty or in preparation for an exhibition. Shampoos are used specifically designed for animals, with mink oil or cocoa butter.

High quality grooming for pets

Other beauty tips

Once every two weeks, the Burmese needs to cut its claws with special scissors, and the kitten must be accustomed to this procedure from an early age. You should also examine your pet’s ears once a week and, if necessary, clean them using special lotions or solutions.

If your cat's eyes are sour and it is not permanent, you can wipe the eyes with a decoction of chamomile or tea.

Buying the necessary things for a kitten

Before a Burmese kitten appears in the house, you need to prepare for its reception, purchase the necessary dishes for the baby (one bowl for food, the second for water), a tray where the baby will relieve his natural needs, toys and a scratching post.

Burmese cats are very active, and toys allow them to channel their energy in the right direction. All kinds of balls, balls with an elastic band, feathers on a stick, mice will be a success during games.

A scratching post for Burmese is a necessary accessory, as these cats love to scratch their claws. If your pet does not have a special place for this activity, she will designate it for herself, but the upholstered furniture will suffer greatly.

When choosing a tray, you should know that Burmese love to row behind them. Therefore, a tray with a grid will not suit them. For this breed, it is better to choose a high pot with a side or a covered house.

But Burmese cats do not have any special requirements for the type of filler; they are happy to use silica gel, bentonite or pressed sawdust.

Such a deep tray is quite suitable for a Burmese cat

Burmese people walking on the street

The Burmese cat does not need a special walk; it can quite easily not leave the apartment. But if the owners themselves want to walk the cat on the street, then they should accustom it to this from an early age. At the same time, walks can only be done in the warm season, since Burmese do not like frosts and drafts, and the temperature-dependent color will begin to darken when walked in sub-zero temperatures.

It is imperative to walk a Burmese cat on a harness, since the curiosity of this breed practically knows no bounds, and the pet can get lost while chasing an object that interests it.

Free range is not recommended for this breed

Health

The Burmese cat may suffer from several diseases, so regular care and examination by a veterinarian is required. This breed is prone to diabetes, they can develop partial or complete blindness, and there is a possibility of congenital deformation of the skull. In addition, Burmese suffer from gingivitis, acute respiratory infections and hypokalemia.

Gingivitis

Some individuals suffer from gingivitis - inflammation of the gums, which manifests itself in the appearance of purulent seals. The cause of the disease is considered to be hormonal imbalance, caries, damage from sharp bones, vitamin deficiency, and intestinal infections. The most common reason is poor teeth cleaning.

Treatment is simple: most often it is enough to change the food, wipe the gums with a special solution, and take a course of vitamins. In some cases, antibiotics may be prescribed. The best prevention is regular brushing of your pet's teeth. If you don’t know how to do this yourself, contact a veterinary clinic.

acute respiratory infections

Heat-loving Burmese cannot tolerate cold, and their immunity may not cope with low temperatures and drafts. Most individuals are susceptible to respiratory diseases. Cats suffer from watery eyes and runny nose. If you notice minor discharge from the eyes or nose, wipe it away, but if this happens more often and your cat becomes lethargic, it’s most likely time to see a doctor.

Disease prevention is simple: maintain your pet's immunity with high-quality food and vitamins, regularly visit the veterinarian and get vaccinated.

Hypokalemia

Some Burmese cats are susceptible to hypokalemia, a condition in which the level of potassium in the blood is low. Animals continue to live with this disease, but if the level drops too low, the pet feels unwell and is unable to even stand up.

The disease is transmitted genetically and can be detected at an early age. Such animals are sold at a lower price and most often with the condition of mandatory castration.

Breed defects

Burmese are distinguished by good health and have good immunity. However, a tendency to certain diseases is still present.

Common Breed Diseases

Among the most popular diseases for Burmese are the following:

• gingivitis (gum inflammation);
• deformation of the skull (congenital);
• increased lacrimation;
• labored breathing.

Regular visits to the veterinarian, timely vaccination and deworming will help you avoid health problems for your pet. As a preventive measure and to get rid of worms, the cat is given anthelmintic drugs at least once every six months and always two weeks before vaccination.

Once a year, the cat is given an antiviral vaccination and once a year a rabies vaccination. Before vaccination, a doctor's examination is required, since vaccination is carried out on a healthy animal.

Defects in appearance

Breed standards do not allow Burmese cats with the following defects to qualify:

1. Broken or abnormal tail, medallions or spots.
2. Blue eyes. Strabismus. Incorrect color of nose or paw pads.
3. Malocclusion leading to severe overbite or underbite, which visually violates the profile described in the standard.
4. Improper jaw formation, resulting in protruding, protruding teeth or a distorted face or jaw.
5. Pronounced stripes along the body. Any color that differs from the acceptable ones.

Possible problems

There are no special breed problems or restrictions in keeping these cats, but still some points can negatively affect the health and behavior of the pet:

1. Although the hair of Burmese cats is not long and is not subject to heavy shedding, it requires constant care and combing. Therefore, those who are not ready to pay attention to their pet and brush it at least once a week with a special brush should not get a Burmese cat.
2. Another reason to think about purchasing a kitten is frequent trips and business trips . Representatives of the Burmese breed are strongly attached to their owner, so you should not leave your pet alone for a long time.
3. A cold climate will be a serious inconvenience for a Burmese cat . Due to the structure of the skull and short nose, the cat is susceptible to frequent colds and runny noses, and frosty weather will only worsen the situation. Such conditions are unacceptable for the health of the pet.

Breeding the Burmese breed

Breeding Burmese cats requires certain knowledge.

Criteria for choosing a partner

When choosing a partner for a Burmese cat, it is necessary to carefully study the pedigrees of both animals in order to avoid the manifestation of genetic defects in the offspring. American and European Burmese cannot be crossed with each other.

1. When choosing a partner for mating, you should choose a healthy and beautiful representative of the breed. One of the animals must already be untied, otherwise the planned mating may not work out.
2. The partner must not have any congenital defects or diseases.
3. Both animals must be vaccinated and dewormed 14 days before the intended mating.
4. Cats and cats should have their claws trimmed to avoid injury during mating.

In addition, you should remember that the cat should not be washed before mating so that its smell does not disappear. Mating is carried out only on the territory of the cat. The cat is brought to him after the start of heat and left for several days.

Choosing a mate for a Burmese cat is not easy.

At what age should you give your pet for the first mating?

The Burmese cat is characterized by early puberty, the first signs of which can be noticed already at six months of age. At the same time, Burmese estruses are frequent and are accompanied by loud “singing.” The first mating of Burmese cats is allowed after the first or second heat, but not earlier than she is one year old.

How often can a cat give birth?

Burmese, like other felines, can give birth several times a year. However, frequent childbirth is harmful to the health of the animal, since the body does not have time to recover. Therefore, a cat taking part in breeding can give birth 3 times within two years.

Burmese cat is a very caring mother

If the mating is successful and pregnancy occurs, the Burmese will bear kittens for 62–72 days. Typically, a cat of this breed gives birth to 3 to 5 babies. Having become a mother, a Burmese woman shows her best parenting qualities. She is caring and gentle with the kittens, takes care of them touchingly and teaches them good manners, from visiting the litter box to interacting with people. Unlike other breeds of cats, the Burmese allows a person to examine their offspring and take the babies in their arms.

Organizing proper care

Among all purebred cats, these pets amaze with their unpretentiousness in daily care. It is enough to comb the coat once every 7-8 days. The absence of undercoat is an advantage, because there is no frequent shedding.

Every day you need to wipe the coat with a damp cloth to remove loose hairs and dirt. Only in case of severe pollution (for example, a walk on a dusty balcony) should you buy a cat with a special shampoo. Such compositions are distinguished by their mild action and high-quality nutrition for short hair.

Castration and sterilization

If a cat or cat is not intended for breeding, then they should be spayed or sterilized.

At what age is it recommended to sterilize an animal?

In the past, it was recommended that spay and neuter surgeries should not be performed until the female cat reached eight months of age. However, early castration is now increasingly being performed - at approximately 4 months of age. Experienced breeders, selling kittens as pets at 16 weeks of age, give the new owner an already sterilized cat or neutered cat. Sterilization is effective both at 4 and 8 months.

Caring for your pet after surgery

After the operation, the cat is put on a special blanket that will protect the seam from licking. The cat owner makes sure that the pet does not have hypothermia, and that there is clean water nearby. If your pet does not drink, then she must be given water forcibly, through a syringe without a needle. You can feed on the second day after surgery, offering the animal a portion three times smaller than usual. On the third day, you can switch to your normal diet.

The blanket is not removed from the cat until 2–3 days have passed after the sutures have been removed, which usually occurs 7–10 days after surgery. Until the seam heals, the owner will have to carefully monitor the cat’s condition, treat the seam with an aseptic solution once a day, and provide warmth for the pet. When the sutures heal (and this depends on the individual characteristics of the cat and its absence of concomitant diseases).

A cat after castration requires much less attention from its owners. The incision is minimal (about 1 cm), and there are no stitches. The owner needs to provide the cat with warmth, drink and rest. Usually the cat is given a special collar to prevent licking. Drinking and feeding are carried out according to the same scheme as for a cat after sterilization. Healing usually proceeds quite quickly, and after 2-3 days the cat returns to its normal lifestyle.

Diseases and problematic issues

Burmese cats have a fairly high tendency to gingivitis, so caring for them involves an annual visit to the feline dentist for an examination and professional teeth cleaning.

In view of this, it is better to feed the animal solid food, which will protect it from plaque, but this does not negate additional dental care.

The Burmese cat is also characterized by deformations of the skull of newborn kittens, lacrimation and breathing problems associated with a special, shortened nose shape.

Table: pros and cons of the breed

Education and training

Among all breeds, Burmese have a high level of intelligence, which is confirmed by many owners of these cats. They can easily open a closed door or reach for the switch to turn off the large “sun” under the ceiling. Having a sincere desire and patience, you can easily teach your dog simple commands: “Sit!”, “Lie down!” and bring the abandoned toy.

Burmese cats easily get used to the litter box and regularly use it as a toilet, so unexpected “bombs” in slippers and shoes will not wait for you.

Owner reviews

Advantages: Affection Disadvantages: they are good, no disadvantages My parents had a lilac cat from the beginning, Izya. He fell in love with my mother and never left her side. When she left on business, he screamed heart-rendingly, cried and suffered under the door. He hated me terribly, I don’t know why, but still. After two years of unpretentious life, he died unexpectedly. Mom was hysterical. But after moving away from the tragedy, I decided to take a Burmese again, but this time chocolate-colored. It was a wonderful, very beautiful cat, Cupcake. But as it turns out, this breed has huge health problems. And after castration at 8 months, Kex became very ill with his stomach. The food was not digested, and there were attacks when the cat fell and suffocated. Doctors gave the cat a maximum lifespan of a week or two. He lay there and died quietly. His mother was hysterical and seemed to die along with him. My heart couldn’t stand it and I came and took him from my mother’s hands and took him to be euthanized. It was very difficult and scary. But this torment had to stop. Now my husband and I gave our mother a Bengal and they are happy. The Burmese is a very good cat, but our experience with this breed was not successful. Buy this breed but only from trusted nurseries. So as not to suffer later. Burmese are affectionate and very attached to people.

Burmese cat - Love without borders! Advantages: Endless Disadvantages: The breed is not cheap Let me start with something not very pleasant... I have never liked cats (cunning, fluffy ones...). Everything changed after my mother persuaded me to give her Burma for her birthday!) This is a real cat dog! This is a creature of unreal beauty and unreal devotion! The Burmochka will follow you with its tail, caress, purr, “talk”, will show off its playfulness in front of you, behaves very dignified when going to the doctor, this breed is very talkative, but does not walk and squeal without a reason, such intelligence There is simply no limit to the cats. With such excellent content, this happiness is also beautiful, almost non-shedding, non-smelling, and not picky in food, but you won’t want to skimp on such magic. BUT!!! This breed should not be left alone. The Burma is very vulnerable, touchy, and characteristic. Alone, he will fall into terrible depression. If you spend enough time at home and are ready to spend it communicating and playing with a cat, or you have children, or you are alone and you need the most faithful friend... The Burmese cat is your cat. You will never regret spending money on this full-fledged member seven!

Advantages: neat, playful, sociable, beautiful colors, curious, muscular, adapts well to a new place, clean, silky fur Disadvantages: high price, looks funny as a kitten, cannot stand loneliness Luxury and grace. His Majesty Burma! Our pet is an important purebred person. The appearance of a cat is just a calling card. The trick is the incredibly beautiful fur. Smooth short shiny. Very similar to a mink coat. The downside is that all this beauty of the breed appears only when the cat grows up... He looks ridiculous as a kitten. Half-bald, of an incomprehensible color, “little runt.” Regarding character, I think it’s all individual. But if it is useful for someone, I can say a few words about the character of OUR pet: Sociable, playful, cannot stand loneliness; Easily finds a “common language” with guests; Clean (no problems with going to the litter box); Unfortunately, he suffers from the fact that he likes to chew furniture. The breed is quite rare, there are few breeders, so kittens are very expensive today. Conclusion: the breed is very beautiful and unusual. I definitely recommend taking a closer look.
