Our
passion to breed a hypo-allergenic Cat - Siberian Kittens
All
of our lives, my wife and I had been severly allergic to cats.
I had family members who had cats who's homes I could never
visit. I could not go over friend's houses as a child if they
had a feline companion. I always was fascinated by cats, and
thought it was horrible that I could not even be around a cat
for more than 15 minutes, without my throat closing up and my
eyes wattering and itching, acompanied by bouts of sneezing.
The same was for my wife. When we were in our 1st apartment,
a friend gave us a kitten, so we thought, let's give it a shot.
Needless to say, 1 hr later, I was returning the kitten to my
friend, while my wife was in the shower, washing her RED eyes
out...
Than,
one day, I was perusing the internet, and discovered the Siberian
Cat. I thought, this must be a hairless cat... and than first
saw a beautiful long haired siberian kitten. I thought, it could
not be true... that there would be a long haired pure-bred cat
that could possibley be a member of our family. It was than
that I had some fur sent from a breeder, to put in my pillow
overnight. After a week with no reaction at all, I decided to
give it a shot, and I ordered a kitten. We purchased our 2nd
Siberian Cat shortly thereafter, since siberians love to play
with each other so much, we thought 2 or more cats would be
best for them.

Years later, my wife and I both semi-retired, decided to dedicate
our home and our time to helping make this wonderful breed, who was
first brought to America in 1990, available to people who were
allergic to cats, but always wanted to enjoy the companionship
of a feline friend. Our siberian cats and siberian kittens are
from the best possible Siberian Cat Breed Stock, and all were parented by
international grand champions, imported from Russia. Our male,
Nicolai "smokey" was bred from Gray Black, and internation
grand champion, and Nastya Black, a Champion russian import.
We invested nearly $2000.00/cat in our Siberian Cat Breed Stock, and raise
wonderful family members, who are raised in our home, not in
a kitten mill. We firmly believe that our kittens meet the highest
possible breed standards, and many have the potential to be
international champions.
Our
kittens receive tender loving care, and constant human interaction,
which is why we beleive we produce the world's best Siberian
Cats and Siberian Kittens, sure to warm your heart.
Our
Siberian Cats also love Dogs! Our siberian Cats and Siberian
Kittens are raised with our 2 golden retrievers and our bernese
mountain dog, "Mr. Bear"
Owning
a cat can be very pleasurable, but owning a Siberian cat is
a very rewarding, life changing experience. The Siberian will
become your best friend, confidante, problem-solver, and house
clown. Siberians are one of the most ancient breeds and began
as the Russian forest cat. We have images of them roaming the
Siberian Taiga (forestland) even today and they are reported
to be in large numbers in the wild Siberian outlying territories.
But another story unfolds in Russia. Siberian cats are now prized
house cats and many Russian families relay fond tales of their
Siberian cats and their amazing loyalty and personalities. In
1990, when communism fell and free trade opened up, the importation
of the Siberian cat to the United States began. For a Siberian

Siberians are Russia's native cats and come from the unforgiving
climate of the Siberia forest. Siberian Cats first appeared
in recorded history around the year 1000. Russian farmers and
trades people were the primary people who cared for the Siberians.
Siberian Cats were needed to protect grain and other products
from small varmints, as Russia was an agricultural country.
Shopkeepers in Moscow were known to compete with each other
over whose cat was the biggest and thickest. Russian people
like cats and most children in Russia grew up with a kitten
and the favorite cats were the Siberian cats. Siberian cats
even existed in Russian Fairy tales as protectors of children
and magical beings who opened gateways to realms beyond our
ordinary senses.
Siberian Cats are very personable and want to be near their
owners. They will meet you at the door when you come home and
explain their day to you. They are a quiet breed that has melodic
ways of expressing themselves using sweet mews, thrills, chirps
and lots of purring. They love to sit in your lap and be groomed.
A favorite pastime of one of mine is to find something and bring
it to me for me to throw so they can play fetch. All types of
toys intrigue them and they will play with just about anything.
Another thing that mine are intrigued with is the moving cursor
on the computer screen. You will need to shut the door of your
computer room if you want to get any typing done.
