THE ULTIMATE FELINE FANTASY
View
the Burmilla standard
 If
you would like a cat which is extremely affectionate, friendly,
gentle, highly intelligent and has an easy going and laid
back personality then the Burmilla may be the cat for
you.
The
Burmilla is an undemanding cat that makes the ideal
companion for any age group. They relate well to other pets
and quite happily adjust to an entirely indoor lifestyle,
making it perfect for apartment dwelling or equally at ease
in a family home.
BURMILLA
BEGINNINGS
The
fabulous nature and good looks of the Burmilla is a result
of their original breeding which was an accidental mating
between a Burmese and a Chinchilla Persian occurring in England in 1981. In
1994 a breeding program was established in Australia using
the same guidelines as the original English program using
only the highest quality Australian cats.
COLOURS
AND COAT PATTERNS
 The
Burmilla comes in five acceptable colours: Black, Blue,
Brown, Chocolate and Lilac and two coat patterns - Tipped
and Shaded.
They
are a stunningly beautiful cat with its green eyes and red
brick nose outlined in dark colour giving them an appealingly
sweet expression. The Burmilla has an ethereal quality
which comes as a result of it having a pure white undercoat
with the colour restricted to the tips of the hair giving
the impression of being sprinkled with colour. The coat is
short and feels like silk to the touch.
