Description:
The Burmilla is a cat of medium build, thanks to the Burmese blood in its ancestry. In Asians like the Burmilla, the female is much smaller and daintier than the male. The head has good width between the ears and a gently rounded dome. The jaw is wide at the hinge tapering to a broad blunt muzzle.

Characteristics and Temperament:
The Burmilla is less boisterous than a Burmese, but less laid-back than a Chinchilla. This cat loves attention and needs to be part of the family. They can be quite demanding and often follow their owners around the house crying for attention. The Burmilla is a very intelligent cat. The curiosity and friendliness of Asians like the Burmilla can often lead them to stray, therefore they may be best confined to the house or a secure garden. They love to play and toys and a scratching post should be provided for amusement as well as quality time set aside to play with them. They make excellent companions and are also generally good with children.
