Coat Type, Color & Grooming
Siberians have
a short, dense undercoat and a moderately
long outercoat enhanced by a neck ruff.
They exhibit many coat colors and
patterns; brown tabbies are the most
popular. Twice-weekly combing should keep
the Siberian's coat free from tangles.
Physical
Attributes
Siberians are large cats that give the
appearance of strength and power. A
rounded body shape differentiates the
breed from the boxier Norwegian Forest Cat
and the Maine Coon. The yellow-green eyes
are large, round, and wide-set, the ears
large and wide with rounded tips.

Personality

northern Russia are good with kids and
adjust well to other pets. They love to
climb, so provide ample opportunity for
them to explore high places.

beautiful, awesome, obedient, loyal, sweet, cuddly, and entertaining!
