The Burmese is a very outgoing cat who loves to be around people. When they are not climbing to the highest spot in the room, they can be found snuggling in any lap (even strangers). They love to play and have even been known to learn how to fetch a favorite toy. Burmese thrive on attention and will follow you around when you are home. They do not enjoy being left alone for long periods and it is recommended, by most breeders, that you adopt them in pairs. Their voice can be described as raspy, rumbling and soft, however they are typically only vocal when they want your attention (or food).
