In the early 1930`s, Dr. Joseph Thompson of San Francisco acquired an attractive walnut- brown female from Burma which he named Wong Mau. Through selective breeding to Siamese, it was established that the Burmese is a distinct breed.
The Burmese cat is an elegant cat of foreign type, which is positive and quite individual to the breed. In character Burmese are alert, active, intelligent, extremely friendly and affectionate.
