Kitten Breeding

Kitten History: Siberian

From Russia with love this could be the theme of your Siberian kittens life.

Stacy Hackett

Siberian © Helmi FlickThis kittens heritage stretches across the entire nation of Russia, with many different cultures and peoples affecting the cat he is today.

The Siberian is believed to have existed for thousands of years as a native of Russia. An account of a cat show held in England in 1871 mentions the breed, though it is difficult to find mention of the Siberian in historical accounts of animals in Russia.

The breed first entered the United States in 1990. The Cat Fanciers Association accepted it into the miscellaneous class in 2000. Though popular with cat lovers, the Siberian is still rare in America, with kittens in high demand.

We got Popper Catsanova Taberian from a cat rescue. the neighborhood kids named him Popper because he silently pops around in the weirdest places. We named him Catsanova because he is such a lover. He is so smart. He figured out where the treats a kept and when he wants some he comes to me and nudges me and "talks" with his lips (silently) and herds me to the cat cabinet. He figured out that we push on the handle to open the door so he was trying to push the handle too so he could go out (screened deck). He likes for me to throw his treats down the hallway (very long) so he can chase/hunt them. He is so entertaining. If no one will play with him, he picks up one of his toys and will throw it into the air and catch it or bat it across the room so he can chase it. He will also bring me a toy so I can toss it for him, he will fetch it and bring it back so I can throw it again. He is nosy, wanting to know about everything, and the ultimate loverboy. He loves to check all the grocery bags to see what I bought just in case there is something for him. He will wag his tail like a puppy and follows me everywhere. If I go out of his sight he calls for me in his chirpy little voice I swear sounds like "mama". He loves cantaloupe. Don't know if it's good for him, but he can find one in the house even before it is cut. He is such a doll.
