The Burmese Breed Profile from The Cat Fanciers’ Association website states..

“Burmese have large, expressive eyes that are great pools of innocence and seductive appeal, irresistible in effect. These eyes are their most persuasive weapon in an arsenal of endearing traits that mask an awesome power to hypnotize their owners into life-time love affairs through which they effortlessly rule their families.”

They got that right!

Chocky most certainly looks like he is daring you to accuse him of anything. Gotta love the way cats think!:)

Ciao Italo,
Grazie tanto per queste belle parole d’incoraggiamento!
Un caro saluto da Sydney e anche dal mio Birmano Chocky!


Hi Wendi,
Thank you :) X


Hi L,
You think?!
Yes.. this is him!
Thank you


Ciao Tito,
Le tue parole sono sempre pieno di dolcezza e gentilezza.
Grazie tanto per l'incoraggiamento.


Hi Billie, thanking you kindly for this encouragement via your return visits.
Chocky is always getting into trouble and pushes the boundaries – he knows more than his looks let on! Your comment on receiving it made me smile!

They are Nature's masterpiece, no doubt about it. And people wonder why I don't care for dogs - no time when there are so many cats to admire and worship!
Is this the one you lost? My dad would probably retitle it "It Wasn't I" but i'm not a stickler...usually.

perugina said...

NNG.. Leo said something of this nature, yes?!
To answer your question.. No, this is my Chocky who needed rescuing/a home, a week after Coco passed – turns out he rescued me instead!

You, a stickler Nick?! No way!
NNG – is the sweetest, kindest, good natured, most generous guy i know who is prone to the occasional depraved thought when admiring orchids! ;)
May i add.. we don’t put on the dog around here! :)

Nick said...

Why do you think they call them "dogs"?
Oh yes it was Coco, sorry. they're all beautiful though. Now to figure a way to combine felines and string instruments....and orchids.

NNG.. something about breeding and training is my guess.
I’m sure your extraordinary talents and skills in various disciplines will serve you well in creating your next capolavoro aided by WT! Please, feel free (i insist) to use any one/combination of subject matter, maybe even chuck in a moon, just for good measure!
