We Provide Amazing Home Raised Siberian Kittens for Sale

The Siberian is a native cat of Russia. It can be found in snowy forests, back alleys of some of Russia’s largest cities and on the icy plains of the Taiga River. Little is known about their early history and development, but the earliest known reference to a longhaired Russian cat is from 1000AD and they have existed in Russian fairy tales and folklore ever since.

The first Siberian was imported to the United States from their homeland in 1990. They are known as loving, intelligent and beautiful household pets that love playing with – and in- water!

It is said that the Siberian cat’s heart is as warm as its homeland is cold. IT is true that the Siberian is a cat that loves people and wants to be with them. It is not shy with strangers and it is happy to play host, chatting away in charming trills and chirps. It tends not to be as needy as some breeds, but will welcome your attention when you’re ready for  snuggles.

There are two types of Siberians: the traditional which are calico in coloring, tabbies, bi-colors and solids. The other variety is called color point or “Neva Masquerade”, both for the Neva River in Siberia and the mask-like appearance of the color point. These cats have stunning blue eyes and their extremities can be tipped in gray, red and brown.

Their athletic build supports their reputation for being exceptionally agile jumpers. Their full neck ruff and triple very water-resistant medium-long coat helped them deal with the harsh Russian winters. This, coupled with their dog-like personality, makes them an energetic, fun-loving feline. They tend not to be shy with strangers, as is so common in some cat breeds. They are a loyal, affection and playful breed.
The Siberian has a medium long coat that is resistant to matting and luxuriously soft.  They are naturally healthy and easy-keepers. 

Temperament

They’re an active and playful breed, enjoying games like fetch and learning tricks that stimulate them mentally. Their athleticism allows them to climb and perch themselves from the highest heights. This bold cat loves to play with water and gets along well with other pets and children.

Characteristics

The Siberian’s head is wedge-shaped with soft contours, topped by medium to large tufted ears. Their nearly round eyes range from shades of green to gold to copper, though white Siberians or those with white markings or patches may have blue eyes or eyes of different colors. Strong-boned legs and round, tufted paws support their muscular body and long, thick tail.

Lifespan

11 to 15 years

Colors

Siberians come in a full spectrum of colors and patterns.

Shedding

Siberians shed seasonally in the spring and fall. To keep their coat tangle- and mat-free, brush them a few times per week. Baths are rarely needed, thanks to their water-resistant triple coat.

Health

Siberian Cats are a relatively healthy breed. Like many other breeds, however, they do have a slightly higher risk for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, a form of heart disease characterized by an enlarged heart.
