birman cat origin
According to Buddhist legend, only the Birman dynasty was created by the Burmese gods. Legend has it that a group of white cats living in a Burmese temple is dedicated to the goddess. After the temple priest was killed, one of the white cats encountered a statue of a deity who turned this cat, and all other temple cats, into gold.
