The color naming depends on the cat registry you go with and the country you are in but generally speaking in the US we'd call her a calico as she has white markings on her. Strictly speaking torbies are red and brown patched with stripes (or red and silver with stripes) and torties are the...

Finicky eaters can be suffering from digestive issues that aren't noticed including IBD. And IBD and other gut disorders can cause excessive thirst too. i suffer from this and when i'm having a bad flare up i drink 3 times as much water and can't seem to get enough probably because my body is...

i'd put the cat on raw food though transition slowly. the thirst should go away as they get fully converted on the raw food. They normally, on a natural prey based diet, don't drink that much water on their own. That's a sign there is a big problem for sure. Dry food is the worst for cats...

We are going to attend this cat show with 5 of our Siberian cats! My 4 year old son will be showing his own cat, Otto for the first time too though I'm skeptical that he will sit still for that. =) If anyone is going to be in Austin please come check it out! We'd love to meet you in person...

You can speculate all the possibilities on finding a shelter or stray cat that is a purebred or even 50% Siberian cat but the odds of rhat are slim to none. Just look at the small number of breeders in the USA compared to other long haired breeds for one then compare those numbers with the...

A pedigreed breed is denoted by a pedigree. Without it it could be anything. the likelihood of an back yard bred or shelter found or feral cat being any purebred is less than 3% according to most statistics and that would be for more common breeds like Persians. Siberian cats are extremely...

I get these questions a lot as I run a large fanpage for my cattery and the breed on Facebook (See Facebook Siberian Cats ). On my fanpage you can peruse the photos and see the different Siberian kittens i've produced as well as some photos other fans of the breed have posted (check the wall...

My husband has allergies to cats and is fine with my cattery full of Siberian cats. As soon as I take him to a cat show though he starts sneezing and his eyes get itchy!! Here's a photo of my new boy, Favst. Just got his photos done at the last cat show we went to... If you would like to...

Thank you! =) We love them. And the added bonus of them being hypo-allergenic is good for my husband who is a bit allergic to cats. They don't bother him at all but when we get to the cat shows he gets all stuffed up! Dawn

Lilyana - she did great having this litter and is such a strong and sweet baby. She's not only a queen but she's my little sweety and just adores me. Lilyana.

Thanks!! That blue cream with white girl is going to look a lot like the kitty in your signature. I can't wait to see how she matures. It's been a wonderful couple of days and i just LOVE red and 'calicos'. So it's nice to see a litter full of them. =) Here's the proud papa at 10 months old...

My boy Aslan is finally a daddy. Please let me know what you think of these guys i'm very proud of them. They are all 1 day old in these photos. Born January 15, 2008. Dam: Sunbeam Lilyana Sire: Pendraig Aslan SunFire I am so pleased with this litter and i hope you guys like them as much as...

Hi, That salt is safer than your typical table salt but it doesn't have nearly the depth of minerals in it the celtic salt and the Himalayan Red Mountain salt have. I have personally used the Fermented High Vitamin CLO for myself, as well as the gold therapuetics (butter oil/CLO mix) for both...

get the kitty off the hills food, it's one of the most god awful concoctions ever. The vets all push it so don't feel bad that you thought it was good. The company gives great kick backs to encourage vets to use it, sell it, push it etc. If you kitty is addicted to dry food i'd first mix...

Sounds a lot like a triple coat! =) It feels really cottony but not necessarily really soft. it's extremely thick and good for snow. The Russian and Siberian winters are extremely harsh and these cats were feral street/woods cats. Dawn Pendraig Siberians
