Siamic Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 Anyone know if Burmese kittens are available in Phuket, or elsewhere in Thailand? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petercallen Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 Funny thing is, Burmese or Siamese cats are easy to find and buy in Australia. I have not seen any in Thailand although they must be here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Siamic Posted December 18, 2010 Author Share Posted December 18, 2010 (edited) Just visited Jatujak market in Phuket. Four kittens at two different stalls; all fluffy, so might suit your girlfriend. Edited December 18, 2010 by Siamic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for info...but a bit hard to tell if a ''fluffy kitten'' will grow into a ''fluffy cat'' as is the birman..this fluffiness and the breeds love of being pandered to..love being groomed and handled constantly and apparently are known for their extreme friendliness. The big blue eyes are also a ''big deal'' according to g/f...so now ''birman hunting''...nothing else will do ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterMan Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 What about all those cute unwanted kittens at PAWS and SOI Dogs? Do you really need a designer cat? These cat's are just as cute and will get dumped at temples.. www.pawsphuket.com http://www.soidog.org/en/adoptions/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
polecleaner Posted December 19, 2010 Share Posted December 19, 2010 The kittens in question did have over the top fluffiness, on a scale from 1-10, a 10, but had green piecing eye's, like beautiful emeralds, looked like something out of a CGI cartoon movie, if you sent me a email i'll send the photo i took of it, we've framed it and have it as our adopted kitty without the mess or damaged furniture. i've got photo's of horses and pigs too Just visited Jatujak market in Phuket.

Do you mean the big Supercheap in town are the smaller one between there and Thalang on the left? Thanks for the heads-up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CroBiker Posted December 23, 2010 Share Posted December 23, 2010 I bought 2 Persian silver tubbies at that sunday market in Hongyok road something....that was 5 years ago. Lady who sold them to us is still there. Check it out. The other day, I saw some cats for sale in Supercheap too, kept in small cage right next to seafood stalls. Not persians but not ordinary cats either, medium fluffy...perhaps those are the Burmese. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
