Our cattery ideas/principles
Eddy, smallest of our fathers—solid cream, 6.75 pounds, olive eyes, bossy and cute!
We breed healthy Siberian Forest cats who are on the petite side for those who love the friendly, hypoallergenic, loyal, strong, soft and hearty Siberian but who for any reason prefer their cats—boys and girls alike—to be small to medium as long lived adults: ideally and usually less than 12 lbs for boys and less than 9 lbs for girls & as small as 7-10 lbs. for boys and 6-8 lbs for girls.
...
We‘ve been breeding cats (and dogs!) for nearly 20 years and we take pride in that we don’t pair up closely related cats. This avoids traits like bad dentition, behavioral problems, and of course anything worse. We also are proud that we always raise all our cats in a homey, down to earth setting where they are free to lounge and roam and are never kept in pens, cages, kennels, grates, crates or gates. It’s a lot of extra work and a lot of extra fun and our felines are happier and healthier for it.
...
Our cats walk and sleep where they like and spend all day together in society with one other (and with us) so they are extremely friendly and experienced with everyday household life. We donate money from every litter to the Humane Society and we also work with smaller rescues by participating in fund raisers and events! We believe that as family members of people every cat and dog should have a good forever home and guaranteed support finding one when they temporarily don’t.
...
We register our cats with The International Cat Association and we are a TICA registered cattery and adhere to the TICA Voluntary Code of Ethics. In our opinion, TICA is brilliant and awesome—they truly promote Fabulous Felines, Fun and Friendship! And we formally pass this affiliation to you as the cat’s new protector.
...
Our kittens come trained to use only the litter box and they are used to having their claw tips trimmed and have already begun learning to sharpen their claws on a scratching post. They also come dewormed, with their first and second vaccinations and veterinarian’s records, already spayed/neutered if our veterinarian deems them big enough and strong enough for surgery, and with our two year genetic health guarantee.
...
We will sign a contract together when you come over to bring a kitten home stating that you will spay/neuter your kitten if it isn’t already, that you won’t declaw your kitten, and that you will not breed or have the kitten for any other reason than to share it’s individual companionship as a member of your household with you and your loved ones.
...
You will receive TICA registration and a full pedigree from the father’s and mother’s sides both after you provide proof of spaying/neutering

OUR SIBERIAN CATS
We feed our queens and kings (and kittens!) a mixture of good quality dry food and wet food and we use clumping clay cat litter in our litter boxes.
We groom the cats, brushing their hair and removing knots as soon as they start and we do our best to cut all their nails so they aren’t tempted to “sharpen” our furniture or get serious when they play and wrestle. We have scratching posts for claw sharpening and the whole cattery is a kitty playground so they get great exercise.
We feed them all 4-6 times a day and don’t leave food out so no one over grazes or becomes territorial. If an adopter ever needs details or tips on what we feed them or how we advise managing daily habits and kitty conundrums, just ask and we will provide!
Our 100% Siberian blood lines are Russian with many show champions (grand, world and international!) in their pedigrees and we have full four and five generation depth which we give to you (along with registration instructions) after you have fulfilled the wellness/spay/neuter contract obligations.
Kona on a high perch...
We strive for our Siberians to be less than average in size—small for the breed—and yet every bit the big hearted Forest Cat that fans and newcomers love and appreciate. Most Siberians are slower to mature than other breeds, continuing to grow and develop until 2-3+ years of age, but, being smaller, ours are precocious and fast to develop, reaching their full height/length around 1 year of age. They will continue to fill out after that as well, of course, based on nutrition and activity levels :)
...
Otherwise our cats possess classic Siberian traits...
• They have low Fel d 1 counts so people with low to medium level allergies can enjoy being close to them and touching them with minimal or no allergic reaction.
• They have long back legs, jump far and high, express loyalty and good natured friendliness before selfishness and snootiness, and their coats insulate to keep them warm when it’s cold and breathe to keep them cool when it’s hot.
• They like people, kids, other cats, and dogs.
• They don’t sweat the small stuff and enjoy a variety of foods.
You might have to keep an eye on their fluffy fur and help them remove various tag alongs but their incredible wispy softness and matching cuddliness make it well worth it!!
