3.0 out of 5 stars Good book for first time Birman owners not breeders, June 29, 1998

By A Customer

This book is a good book covering the Basics of Birmans but begins to fall short when talking about breeding and the genetics of Birman cats. I love the care/feeding and general information of the book. A true book about breeding however should include pedigrees, history and foundation cats, and include medical information as well. My wife and I have bred Birmans for 11 years and as such have to consider genetic questions whenever we talk about breeding/aquiring another birman. The book also should include online information available for Birmans which is extensive.
