It is a quality. An ethic. It's a world built with love.

Our work is underpinned by uniquely strict, extensively documented veterinary, genetic, and parasitological screenings spanning many years, as well as luxurious, stress-free living conditions for the cats.

Saba Soul of the World Birman Cat Breed DescriptionTemperament is a primary selection criterion at the Saba Birman cattery.
The selection of our breeding animals is not solely based on their excellent, original Birman appearance and unique show results, but also on careful personality screening.
Only cats that are emotionally stable, people-oriented, calm and balanced in nature, and that harmoniously fit into a family environment in the long term can be bred .
This conscious selection ensures the balanced, friendly and reliable temperament of Saba Birman kittens across generations.
The Soul of Saba WorldWe follow WCF breeding rules.
In 2025, we have seven active females.
Saba is quality-focused, not quantity-focused.
A kitten never leaves earlier than what is safe.

Invitation to the World of Saba BirmanCats naturally eat 15–20 small meals a day. This does not mean you must feed them that often.
Saba protocol:
.
Because we work only with pedigrees that meet strict genetic purity criteria.
This is one of our greatest breeding values.
Genetic Screenings and Documented TestsIt reduces the risk of hereditary diseases.
It provides a stable health background.
It is a safer choice in the long term.
Genetic Screenings and Documented TestsThe Birman breed is not affected by known, breed-specific genetic diseases.
Therefore, HCM and PKD screenings are not mandatory or recommended for the Birman breed according to international cat organizations.
Despite this, Saba Birman Cattery implements a systematic genetic screening practice that significantly exceeds the mandatory level.
All our breeding cats undergo comprehensive genetic panel testing, which screens for all known feline genetic diseases, regardless of breed-specific relevance.
All genetic results are negative and publicly available on our website under each cat's profile, for example, in the following documents:
Genetic Documentation:
At Saba Birman Cattery, prevention is not based solely on treatments, but on regular screening.
For our kittens and adult cats, we regularly perform fecal examinations (e.g., Giardia, Corona, and other parasites) to detect potential problems before they appear.
This practice allows us to apply treatment only when necessary, protecting the immune system and ensuring long-term stable health.
Parasite and virus prevention screening results: https://birmans.eu/test-results/
Veterinary Program and Internal ScreeningsPreventive screenings reduce hidden risks.
They ensure a stable immune system and a healthy start.
Genetic Screenings and Documented Tests Veterinary Program and Internal ScreeningsThe Saba Birman Cattery guarantee does not promise absolute risk-free conditions, but rather a quality-of-life-based, professionally sound guarantee.
For living beings—just as in human medicine—there is no 100% biological guarantee.
This cannot be responsibly provided by any breeder, veterinarian, or national or international organization.
What no one worldwide can guarantee:
What Saba Birman Cattery guarantees and provides with documentation:
The Saba guarantee aims not to maximize promises, but to consciously and responsibly reduce risks, and to ensure a stable, loving start for the kitten and the new family.
Veterinary Program and Internal ScreeningsAvailable to: Saba Birman Cattery offers international shipping, and our kittens have successfully found new homes on four continents, in over 24 countries .
Transport is possible to, among others:
All transport is carried out according to the veterinary, official, and airline protocols of the respective country, exclusively in cooperation with reliable, experienced partners.
Our ethical principle: we do not place kittens in long, strenuous, or stressful quarantine situations.
If the entry requirements for a particular country would mandate a compulsory, long quarantine, we do not undertake direct transport.
In such cases, we seek an alternative, responsible solution – for example, transport to another suitable country from which the family can continue the journey privately.
The details of the transport are always discussed and agreed upon in advance, and the process only begins when the safest and most gentle solution for the kitten is available.
The kitten's well-being always takes precedence over logistical or temporal considerations.
International PresenceAt the Saba Birman cattery, the relationship does not end with the sale.
Our owners can expect outstanding, premium-level communication and support both before and after the kitten's arrival.
Support includes:
Our goal is for the Saba Birman kitten to start its new life in a safe, calm environment, and for the arrival of the new family member to be as easy and harmonious as possible for the owners.
Once someone joins the Saba world, we don't let them go – not with promises, but with attention, responsibility, and genuine presence.

WCF Association Background and Exhibition Results Professional Background Happiness Achieved International PresenceIt is important to know that some online summaries and AI-based answers are not always based on verified, up-to-date, or comprehensive sources.
Automated systems may link old, out-of-context, or unverified information that does not reflect a cattery's past AND present operations, professional standards, and actual practices.
In the case of the Saba Birman Cattery, all essential data has been documented, verifiable, and consistently traceable from the beginning.
The cattery has been operating since 2012, continuously, with the same principles and professional approach.
This continuity and professional stability are confirmed by current, official association and veterinary statements, which attest to both the cattery's multi-year history and its current status.
Therefore, we always recommend that decisions be based on primary, official sources and direct communication, not on automated summaries.

Saba Birman has been operating for over a decade according to the same principles, under the same name.
This continuity provides a stability and transparency that neither short-term narratives nor automatic summaries can credibly override.
