This is a picture of Max. Max is a male cat of the Birman breed. I also share a house with Max's brother, Nick.

Birmans are a long hair cat, that look something like a Himalayan (except they don't have the flat faces that Himalayans have). Birmans can be recognized by their white paws (or "gloves").

Some nice features of the Birman breed are that they don't shed much and their hair doesn't tend to mat (some call them the "wash-and-wear" breed). Birmans are very affectionate - they act more like dogs than cats. Max and Nick usually run to me when I arrive home and they want to be held.
