What are Burmilla cats like?
Burmilla cats are known for their sweet disposition and large ears. Weighing up to 12 pounds and up to 18 inches in length, they are heavy-boned, stocky cats. Their coats are short, dense and soft. Registered Burmilla breeders will have kittens for sale with white, black, sable, blue, and cream fur among other variations.
Burmilla cats are affectionate, active and very smart. They like having their stomach rubbed and being petted. Burmillas enjoy climbing and jumping, so a cat tree and perch would be a welcome addition to your home. They are infrequently vocal. Given their heavy-boned build, they have high potential for weight gain, so their nutrition and exercise must be monitored carefully. For families or households considering a Burmilla cat, note that they are still an experimental breed and rare in the U.S. Be extra careful when selecting a breeder.

I have had two interests since I was very young… the Internet and cats. I grew up with two lovely cats in my family, Midnight and Chloe. But when I started looking for a cat as an adult, I realized how few reliable resources there are for finding ethical breeders. So I combined my Internet skills and cat knowledge to create Cat Kingpin, the #1 resource for cat breeders online. Have a question or suggestion for my list? You can reach me here.
