These long-haired, blue-eyed beauties are known for their silky coat. The Birman cat is incredibly charming. They're gentle, loyal pets. These animals do have the curious, outgoing traits that are common to most cats, but they're also very affectionate. They're sometimes called “velcro” cats because they tend to follow their owners around throughout the day. Birmans are one of the most affectionate cat breeds around. Female cat, 3 weeks old
