Birman
Breed
facts, pictures and detailed information on birman cats.
 Pure
white paws give the impression that Birman is wearing
white gloves. The rest of the long, silky coat is
essentially golden-fawn in color, with the addition of
dark points typical of a Siamese.
Birmans are gentle, faithful, even-tempered, civilized,
amenable, affectionate, intelligent, outgoing, robust
and hardy. They have soft, sweet voice.
Birmans are considered the oldest breed in the world.
Sometimes because of their name they are confused with the
Burmese. Birmans are very friendly, taking easily to other
animals. They are medium sized cats with short powerful
legs and shortish noses. Their hair is long but not as
long as that of a Persian. The main characteristic that
defines the breed are the white "socks" on their
paws. There is an interesting legend about this:
The Birmans served as sentries in the temple of the gold,
sapphire-eyed goddess Lao-Tsun (pron. lah-oh-tsoon).
Once invaders came and killed the head priest as he was
praying. His cat, changing from pure white to the
white-socked, blue-eyed animal of today, jumped on his
body and stood over it for the next seven days refusing
food and water. Finally it died. When the invaders left
and the rest of the priests stopped hiding they were
amazed: the rest of the cats had the same markings as
their fallen comrade!
The Birman was first accepted as a breed in 1966.
