Kucinta Birmans

The beautiful blue eyed cat from the ancient temples of Burma

Welcome to my website - my name is Annette Powell from Northern Tasmania and I have been caring for Kucinta Birman's since 1996.

The "Love Cat" or Sacred Cat of Burma, the Birman is a recognised breed said to have originated in the Temples of Northern Burma, being raised as companions for the monks.

They are a medium sized cat with medium to long haired silky fur, white socks and deep deep sapphire blue eyes. While the kittens start out mostly white, they all develop a "pointed" coat as they get older.

There are 8 major colour point variants that emerge

Seal

Blue

Chocolate

Lilac

Red

Cream

Tortie

Tabby

There are also combinations of the primary points like this Tortie/Tabby variant known affectionately as a Torbie

Torbie

Showing and Breeding Kucinta Birman Cats

I have been breeding and showing my beautiful Kings and Queens for a number of years now and have enjoyed my fair share of success and it gives me immense pleasure seeing the kittens we have raised go to new homes and enjoy similar show success or find loving homes across Australia and south east Asia.

Meanwhile... over on Facebook
