Burmilla
Overview

Burmillas have a medium-sized body that is muscular and athletic. Their coat is short and plush, and comes in a range of colors, including silver, black, blue, chocolate, and lilac. The distinctive feature of the breed is their sparkling silver coat, which is created by the silver tipping on each hair. Their eyes are large and expressive, and can be green or gold.

They are also playful and active, and love to explore their surroundings and play with toys. They are intelligent cats that are easy to train, and they adapt well to new environments.
Burmillas are generally healthy cats, with a life expectancy of 12-16 years. They are not prone to any specific health issues, but like all cats, they require regular veterinary check-ups and preventative care.
Overall, the Burmilla is a beautiful and affectionate breed that makes a great pet for families and individuals.
