Overview

"One Domestic Cat Breed That Has A Long And Illustrious History Is The Birman, Sometimes Called The Sacred Cat Of Burma For Its Majestic Beauty And Mild Temperament. While Birmans Share Some Coloring With Siamese Cats, They Also Have Their Own Distinguishing Markings That Make Them Stand Out. - The Birman Cat Is Characterized By Its Large To Medium-Sized Frame, Robust Muscles, Silky Semi-Longhair Coat, And Intensely Blue Eyes That Resemble Sapphires. Birmans Are Easily Recognizable By Their Color Spots, Which Are Darker Than The Rest Of The Body And May Be Seen On The Ears, Face, Paws, And Tail. The Deeper Pigment Of A Birman's Paws ""Gloves"" Its Feet, Making Them Look Like They're Wearing White Gloves. - The Kind And Loving Temperament Of Birmans Is Well-Known. They Have A Reputation For Being Kind, Calm, And Amiable Among Kids And Other Animals. They Make A More Peaceful Pet Since Their Sweet, Melodic Voices Aren't As Strident Or Demanding As Those Of Other Vocal Breeds. - The Breed's Enigmatic And Legendary Past Is Full With Intrigue. One Story Has It That In Ancient Burma (Now Myanmar), Cats Of The Birman Breed Were Revered As Sacred Temple Cats And Thought To Bestow Good Fortune On Their Owners. The Breed Has Been Increasingly Popular As A Cherished Pet Since Its Arrival In The West In The Early Twentieth Century. Although Birmans Are Typically Healthy And Require Little In The Way Of Upkeep, Their Semi-Longhair Coat Does Necessitate Frequent Grooming. Birmans Are Magnificent House Pets Because Of Their Charming Looks And Mild Demeanor, Making Them Ideal For Households With Children Or Those Living Alone."
