Burmese are the ultimate companion cats. Often cited as the most affectionate of all cat breeds, they love being with people, playing with them, and keeping them entertained. They crave close physical contact with their people.

The word that comes to mind when looking at the Burmese is round. A small-to-medium size cat with large, round gold eyes on a round head, sitting on a compact, rounded body. The facial expression of a Burmese is sweet, innocent and unique among pedigreed cats. It has been said that when the Burmese looks at you, it feels like it is “looking into your soul.”

The body of the Burmese is akin to that of a little bulldog. There is nothing dainty about a Burmese; it is strong and muscular, with a broad chest. What consistently surprises people is how heavy they are, given their relatively small size. There is a lot of muscle and power packed into that small, compact frame.

This little bundle is clothed in a shiny, close-lying coat that feels like satin. Burmese come in four colors: sable, champagne, blue and platinum. With our breeding cats, we have the ability to produce all four colours, but Mother Nature is responsible for what is produced in any given litter. We do not produce red, cream or tortoiseshell cats, as these colours only exist in the European Burmese.
