Our new Burmese cats
We have recently got two new Burmese cats. Our previous mother and daughter pair, Tiffany and Gaia, unfortunately both contracted cancers and had to be put down within one month of each other. It was a very sad time.
Shortly after, the rumblings started from the daughter to get a new cat, and not just a cat but “a cute kitten”. Oh dear - so the search started. After some time we found a cattery (Jewel’s Choice run by Henk and Linda Langelaar-Dooremalen) which bred Burmese and signed up for a tortoiseshell kitten with… the father of the kitten coming along as well for good measure!
So we now have Quincy (the father) a very nice creme Burmese (I call him ‘Chunky’) together with his daughter Harlequin who is a tortoiseshell colour.
They seem to have ‘accepted’ us, and are now well and truly entrenched i.e. they have taken over the house! Quincy likes to pretend he is a live fur collar - he jumps up on your shoulder and then drapes himself around your neck.
