| | Catz Inc. Breed Profiles - Burmilla |
 | | In producing Burmillas, it was not the intention to develop a Silver coloured Burmese, (Silver Asian), which was achieved independently in New Zealand without crossing to Chinchilla. |
 | | In fact, the coat patterns of the Chinchilla and the Burmese are from opposite ends of the genetic colour spectrum, with the Chinchilla considered to be of Agouti genotype; with barring coat patterns and green eyes, while the Burmese is non-Agouti. |
 | | The Burmilla is a cat of medium foreign type, showing striking contrast between the coloured shading or tipping and the silver undercoat, with delicate tracings of tabby markings on the head, legs and tail. |
