Birman Kittens for Sale - Cat Breed Information

Size : Large

Origin : France / Burma

INTRODUCTION
The Birman cat is believed to have originated in Burma. In the early 20th century a couple of Birman cats where shipped over to France where they were bred. The French cat registry recognised the Birman as a seperate Breed in 1925. They where recognised by England in 1965 and then by the Cat fanciers association in 1966.

APPEARANCE
Birmans are quite large and stocky cats. they have long hair like the persian except that it is finer and silky.
They are usually quite light in colour and the face, legs and tail are usually darker. They are unusual as they seem to have white 'gloves' on each paw, where their toes are pure white in colour.

CHARACTERISTICS
Birman cats love to be around people, they have been bred for many generations as companians and are therfore very loving cats. They quite often seem to take a genuine interest in what their owners do and often follow you around the house.
They are a great cat to have around the house, even if you have other pets like a dog.
