WHAT DOES BURMESE CAT MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Burmese cat

The Burmese (Thai: ทองแดง (ศุภลักษณ์) RTGS: Thong Daeng, meaning copper colour) is a breed of domestic cat. Most modern Burmese are descendants of one female cat called Wong Mau, which was brought from Burma to America in 1930 and bred with American Siamese. From there, unusually among pedigreed domestic cats, American and British breeders developed distinctly different Burmese breed standards. Most modern cat registries do not formally recognize the two as separate breeds, but those that do refer to the British type as the European Burmese. Originally, all Burmese cats were dark brown (sable), but are now available in a wide variety of colours; formal recognition of these also varies by standard. Both versions of the breed are known for their uniquely social and playful temperament and persistent vocalisation.
