Welcome to Arklan Birmans, my name is Jan Gay, I hope you enjoy browsing through my website finding more out about my beautiful Birmans and myself.
I am a member of The Cat Association of Tasmania Inc and my Cattery is accredited by the Association.

I live on a 5-acre property 25kms South East of Hobart, with my husband Stuart and our two sons Michael & Chris.
I have always loved cats and owned many moggies as a child. Several years ago, I decided I would love to own a pedigree cat and that is when my love of the Birman breed first started.

My introduction to breeding was not a good one, with my first three breeding queens having birthing problems and loosing several precious little Bir-Babies.With help from very good breeding friends, here I am successfully breeding 8 years later. I breed all colours – Seal, Blue, Chocolate, Lilac, Cream, Red, Tabby and Tortie Points.

All “pet quality” kittens are registered, desexed, vaccinated and wormed before leaving for their new homes.

Kittens spend time indoors and in the Cattery so they are very well socialized. I strongly recommend when buying a kitten from my cattery, that your new “ Bir-Baby” is kept indoors. Birmans are quite happy to live indoors but if your home is vacant for long periods of time, I would suggest that you have two Bir-Babies as Birmans love company and will not be happy to be left alone.
