Founded in 1977 and affiliated with the New South Wales Cat Fanciers Association of Australia.
The Birman Cat Club of Australia was founded in 1977 by a group of people dedicated to this wonderful breed. The club is affiliated with the New South Wales Cat Fanciers Association of Australia, which is a member of the Coordinating Cat Council of Australia. It is a non-profit organisation with the purpose of providing a meeting place for not only breeders of the Birman cat, but exhibitors and pet owners, with the intention of promoting this delightful breed. We encourage all people to practise responsible cat ownership for Australian conditions and for our members to strive to breed Birmans of the best standard.
The club holds an annual Championship Show to promote our cats to the public and we also have a helpline for those people with questions they may like assistance with.

Annual Permits for Non–Desexed Cats
From 1 July 2020 owners of cats not desexed by four months of age will be required to pay an $80 annual permit in addition to their one-off lifetime pet registration fee. Exemptions are in place for cats that are registered by 1 July 2020, those kept for breeding purposes by members of recognised breeding bodies, and cats which cannot be de-sexed for medical reasons.
This will create a stronger incentive to desex cats, which in turn will improve their health and wellbeing, including reducing the risk of some cancers. Improving desexing rates will also ease the burden on pounds and shelters, reduce euthanasia rates, and help to address concerns about feral, stray and roaming cats and their effect on wildlife.

The Birman cat is available in many colours and patterns to their points. The "point" refers to the darker extremeties of the face, ears, legs and tail.
