Siberians have been around for at least one thousand years as far as recorded history. The Siberian cat is a natural breed from Russia. The Siberian, considered a semi longhair, has a rich full coat in the winter while the summer allows for a somewhat shorter less dense coat. The Siberian can come in just about every color of the rainbow but because of the rarity of the breed those colors may not allways be available. ople who exhibit allergies to other cats, have little or no reaction to the Siberian.
This is an intelligent cat with a bold wedge shaped head, rounded contours and expressive eyes. They are a semi-longhaired breed with thick undercoats that require minimal grooming. They are accepted in all color patterns. The Siberian is slow to mature, taking five years to reach full maturity. Siberians are loyal and friendly and make great companions. Their personalities are often referred to as dog like and do in fact exhibit protective qualities. Siberians are not an extremely vocal breed, they express themselves with a soft chirping. Our three love their toys and love to put their toys in their water. We have games of 'fetch' and they are so much better at it than my sister's dog!
