From Burmese Breed Council Website

I love my little kitten; she makes my house a home.
She is my very sweetest little friend; I never feel alone.
She makes me smile; She makes me laugh;                                 She fills my heart with love . . .
Did some person breed her, or did she fall from above?

I've never been a breeder, never seen life through their eyes;
I hold my little kitten and just sit and criticize.
I've never known their anguish; I've never felt their pain,
The caring of their charges, through snow or wind or rain.
I've never waited the whole night through for babies to be born,
The stress and trepidation when they're still not there by morn.

The weight of responsibility for this body in my hands,
This darling little baby, who weighs but 60 grams.
Should you do that instead of this ... or maybe that was wrong?
Alone you fight and hope, one day, he'll grow up to be strong.
You pray he'll live to bring great joy to someone else's home.
You know it's all just up to you; you'll fight this fight alone.
Formula, bottles, heating pads, you've got to get this right,
two-hour feedings for this tiny guy, throughout the day and night.
Within your heart you dread that you will surely lose this fight,
To save this little baby, but God willing . . . you just MIGHT.
Day one; he's in there fighting; you say a silent prayer.
Day two & three, he's doing well, with lots of love and care.
Day four & five he's still alive; your hopes soar to the heavens.
Day six he slips away again, dies in your hands, day seven.
You take this little angel, and bury him alone.
With aching heart and burning tears, and an exhausted groan,
You ask yourself, "Why do this? . . . Why suffer through this pain?"
Yet watch the joy your kittens bring, and everything's explained.
So, when you think of breeders and label them with "Greed,"
Think of all that they endure to fill another's need.
For when you buy your kitten, with your precious dollars part,
You only pay with money . . . while they pay with all their heart.

JAK, "HAND IN PAW" THERAPY CAT!! 

READ ALL ABOUT IT!!

Grand Premier Skinzin Bak Jak-the-Knife of The TrueZue  and Sharron True, RN (Owner/guardian and MamaKat) have met the requirements for certification as a Delta Society Therapy Team.  Furthermore, the Delta Society confirmed that Jak is the FIRST and ONLY SPHYNX CERTIFIED AS A THERAPY CAT!  He represented his breed with beauty, poise and total confidence.  

The Delta Society is a national organization with established guidelines by which Therapy Animals are rigorously trained and tested.  It is a process, involving weeks of classes, shadow visits and training sessions.  Jak was the only cat in a class of about 20 dogs, and he was undaunted!  Jak will now visit hospitals, nursing homes and other settings where he and other Therapy Animals can bring their own special joy.

JAK'S HISTORY: Sharron had admired Jak as a kitten so I decided to surprise her at the 2005 International Cat Show in Houston.  At the conclusion of judging, Judge Lois Jenson was kind enough to make the surprise presentation.  Jak went on to finish as the International Show's 2nd Best Sphynx Kitten, 

While an exceptional show cat (2006-2007 Region 7 2nd best Sphynx in Premiership!), Jak seemed to have aspirations of a special calling.  His sweet and outgoing personality contributed to his talents and abilities in facilitating healing and well-being.  We are honored to be a part of the process.
