We are a family of cat lovers
who embarked on a new kitten search in
2006
after
our eldest d
aughter
moved out with the family cat in tow. After an
extensive search of different cat breeds, we
discovered and fell in love with Birmans.
Soon after adopting our first Birman, I became very
interested in breeding, which I had never considered
before in the midst of raising daughters. As a
registered nurse with a longstanding fascination
with genetics, I have spent
countless hours researching the Birman breed
and attending cat shows to determine the traits,
colors and attributes we want to focus on in our
breeding program. It has been a very fulfilling
hobby.
Birmans are strikingly beautiful, intelligent,
gentle and playful cats who like to be around
people. They have a
silky, semi-long haired coat that has no undercoat
so requires minimal
grooming. Originally called the “Sacred Cat of
Burma", the origin of the Birman breed dates back centuries in France. Birman integration into the western world is almost
as shrouded in mystery as the legendary history.
BIRSACE BIRMANS designer theme epitomizes the
beauty and elegance of this wonderful breed.
Following a tradition amongst Birman breeders, the
names of our kittens begin with the letter of the
alphabet that has become associated with their year
of birth. Birsace breeding queens born in 2010, an
"H" year, were named Heaven Sent and Hallelujah.
Two of their offspring who are staying with us, were born
in 2011 so have names beginning with
the letter "I" - Il Divo and Isle of Skye.
We look forward to lovely kittens from Divo and Skye in the
spring of 2012 when they are bred to outcrossed
Birman lines.
