My name is Nicki and I live with my husband and seven Birmans in the pretty coastal town of Frinton on Sea in Essex.

Our first Birman was “Fudge” a rescue cat we homed after she was abandoned with two others in a squat, sadly we lost her in 2004 but we were hooked on the breed and have not looked back.

To replace Fudge we visited Trish Jones in Shropshire and came home with “Croganii Yum Yum”. In 2006 she had a litter with Ann Mott’s Tica Treble Grand Champion Jandouglen Torranach which produced, amongst others, “Amisti Autumnale” and so our merry little band began.

We are not a cattery and we do not breed Birmans as a business. Our ladies are our pets and live with us running the home and employing myself and my husband as loyal and dutiful servants.

They have the run of the house and a veranda on the back of our French doors overlooking the garden in which to sun themselves and take the air

Birmans are people-orientated cats and are extremely loving, trusting cats who take pride of place on your lap anytime they feel like it. Birmans thrive on an indoor lifestyle perfectly content with the love you give them. They are great with children and other animals.

Birmans are excellent companion cats and relish the family lifestyle running most families from day one!
