Burmese

The origins of the Burmese go back to a brown female cat from Burma. Dr. Joseph Thompson took this cat to San Francisco in 1930 and selectively bred it with Siamese males. The result was the Burmese. The history of this cat breed has been one of controversy, as in the late 1940s cat breed judges discovered that hybrid versions of the Burmese were participating in shows. This controversy was later cleared and this breed is currently a very popular one. With a round and solid body covered in smooth and short hair, this cat is available in four colors: sable, champagne, blue, and platinum. The eyes of the Burmese come in gold or yellow. These intelligent cats frequently imitate what they see around the home. They are very watchful and alert. Thus, they grab car keys and hide them, among other things. This breed needs physical and mental challenges and activities, as it can act mischievous when bored. It enjoys learning new tricks, as well as playing on perches and with toys. Even though the Burmese is not very vocal, it does like to communicate with its owner now and then. When it comes to grooming, this cat breed does not require any brushing. Daily pets would do.
