ABOUT WORLD OF BIRMANS
This
site is non profit making, it is provided
for the benefit of the Birman, the Breeders
who breed them and anyone with an interest
in the Birman.
There
many people who do not have the time to
produce large databases for the ancestry of
their cats. The World of Birmans database is
a resource that can be used in conjunction
with Birman pedigrees to trace the
ancestors and find other useful information.
Ted and I
started collecting pedigree data in 1996 and
we wanted to share it with everyone and so
the World of Birmans database was launched
in 2007.
We
purchased the Pedserve program and with the
help of Lee we designed the layouts and
formulas to display the data.
The data
is not owned by anyone, it has come from
many sources over the years, some from
donated databases, some from information in
the public domain. However a special thank
you must go to all those who are
donating their pedigrees and pictures and
allowing them to be used on World of Birmans.
Apart from adding to the database we are gathering
together old articles from around the world and
publishing them on the
collection pages. If you can help with this project please
send items to
birman.database@blueyonder.co.uk
We are
particularly interested in information about when
the first Birmans arrived in your countries and who
they were.
