A very handsome and striking looking seal tabby boy, with lovely definition to the tabby markings, strong facial markings and well barred legs and tail. Very nice Birman type, lovely breadth to skull, medium sized ears with delicate thumb marks. Fairly full cheeks, medium length nose with slight dip to the profile, good chin. His eyes are a lovely deep blue colour, expression enhanced by light coloured spectacle markings. He just needs to learn to relax whilst being handled, because he did have a tendency to tense up and stare, thus making his eyes a little too round, much better when he realised we were friendly and he relaxed! Neat and sparkling white feet. Very pleasing body size and weight, nicely proportioned boy. Super contrast between strong seal tabby markings and his pale beautifully groomed coat, showing some surface shading but clear at the roots and he has a wonderful ruff to frame the head magnificently.
