Burmese cat - a description of the breed and character
The pronounced individuality and unusual appearance of the Burmese cat distinguish it from other breeds. Burmese is a medium-sized animal with well-developed muscles and strong physique. The cat's body is proportional, and the weight at modest sizes is large enough. On the rounded head, large wide-set round eyes of honey-amber hue with an expressive look are especially prominent. In this case, the hue of the eyes in Burmese can vary depending on the degree of illumination, the kind of lamp and even on its mood. Small ears with a rounded tip are tilted slightly forward.
The wool of the Burmese is short and shiny, to the touch like an atlas. It is very tight to the body and has almost no undercoat. The colors of wool from the Barman cats can be as follows: chocolate, dark brown (sable), red. Variants of these shades are possible - tortoiseshell, cream, platinum, blue. In this case, in all cats, the lower part of the body is somewhat lighter than the upper part. Young cats can have a light pattern on the wool, and its color may be lighter.
The Burmese cat is a wise, intelligent and understanding animal. She is very fond of people and incredibly devoted to her family, which resembles a dog. The Burmese gets on very well with the children, loves to play with them and forgives them all children's antics in their address.
These cats are very playful and artistic and even a simple game with a toy can turn into a real theatrical spectacle, and a burm as a real artist will bathe in the rays of its glory.
Burmese cat is very in need of attention, so leave it alone at home for a long time should not be. Take her in the company of another cat or even a dog with which Burma will be good friends .
