History

The Burmese cat is a domestic cat breed that originated in Southeast Asia. It is thought to be descended from the sacred cats of Burma, and was brought to the United States in the 1930s. The breed almost became extinct in the 1950s, but was revived through careful breeding programs. Today, the Burmese is one of the most popular cat breeds in the world.

The exact origins of the Burmese are unknown, but it is thought that they are descended from sacred cats kept by Buddhist monks in Burma. These cats were highly prized for their good luck properties, and were often given as gifts to royalty and dignitaries. In 1871, British soldiers stationed in Burma brought a number of these cats back to England with them.

The first recorded mention of a “Burmese cat” was in 1885, when one was shown at a cat show in London. However, it wasn’t until 1930 that the breed was formally recognized as its own distinct type. In that year, two Burmese cats were imported to America by Dr. Joseph Cheesman Thompson. He named them “ Wong Mau ” and “ Tai Mau ” after their place of origin.

Thompson began breeding Wong Mau and Tai Mau together, and eventually developed a new type of Burmese that he called the “ American Shorthair Burmese .” This new breed was different from its Asian ancestors in several ways, including having shorter fur and a more compact body type. However, it still retained the distinctive dark brown coloration that is characteristic of the Burmese breed.

The American Shorthair Burmese quickly became popular in America, and by 1950 there were an estimated 200,000 registered members of the breed. However, this popularity came at a cost – due to careless breeding practices, many American Shorthair Burmese developed health problems such as heart defects and respiratory problems. As a result, their numbers began to decline sharply in the 1950s.

In an effort to save the breed from extinction , a group of dedicated fanciers established a new breeding program using only healthy stock . They also decided to return to the original Asian standard for the breed , resulting in what is now known as the “ Traditional (or Old-Style) Burmese .” This new type of Burmese was first shown publicly in 1966 , and today it is one of the most popular cat breeds in America .
