Quotation:
"2.6.4 BUR (Burmese)
The FIFe shall only recognise the following EMS codes in Burmese:
n, a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, j. The FIFe will not encourage
any person or federation to produce Burmese in any other colour varieties
than those listed above. When breeding Burmese:
• Silver and/or agouti varieties and/or piebald spotting are
not allowed for breeding
• Offspring in a non recognised colour variety shall be registered
as XSH"

In
all colours the underparts of the body appear paler than on the back
and legs, but shading should be gradual. The coat should shade gradually
to a paler colour at the roots. The face and ears may show a little
contrast.
All varieties must be without any barring, smoke effects, ticking or
spotting. |
