Siberian Cat Breed Profile

   

   

From Lynda Nelson, Florida
(1) White Siberian (2)Kravchenko Marozanoya (3) TICA Champion (4) Featured  Cat on the CFA Siberian Brochure
   

   
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 These gentle, friendly, loyal cats from 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.

From Jennifer, Tampa, Florida
I just discovered my cats were Siberians, and it explained everything! They always seemed to be like puppies, love to climb, and loving playing with water.  I always thought their fur was exceptionally beautiful and thick.  They are beautiful, awesome, obedient, loyal, sweet, cuddly, and entertaining!
