Siberians?

Aren't there any siberian breeders on this site? I really like that breed. like maine coons, only a little smaller and rounder. I was really hoping to meet a breeder. Nobody ever answered my old posts, but... Oh well. i guess i'll never find a siberian breeder near me.

I don't know Joecool if there is or not, I guess someone who may know will get back to you,

Thank you for replying.

Siberians are not a common breed and it is likely there are very few breeders... I found the best place to find a cat breeder of the less common breeds is the local cat show")

Thank you sharky. I will try to get to one somehow, but with school and all it could be a long time. They are not that uncommon a breed, however, they have spread well since '91. I just hoped to find one here because it is so widely used, for a site on cats.

This should give you a good start. It is the Fanciers Breeder Referral List. Good luck!

I'm not a Siberian breeder, but I live together with a colourpoint Siberian (Neva Masquerade). All I can say it's a wonderful breed, very loving and affectionate. If I wouldn't want to breed the Traditional Persian I definately would choose the Siberian

Do you have a photo of him? I have read about the nevas but never seen a picture. Do YOU think he is hypoallergenic? I have heard conflicting opinions about that. I was looking for a breeder because my dad has allergies, and i thought if i could take him to see some, he'd let me get one. I have two outdoor/barn cats, but i want some indoors.

Yes of course I have some pictures of her, she's called AmÃ[emoji]169[/emoji]lie and you can see lots of pictures on my website She's a seal tabby point:






Siberians could be the answer to people who are allergic, it only depends on what kind of allergy you have, there are different types. I've heard a lot of stories of people getting a lot of reactions when they are with cats, but none with Siberians.
The best thing you can do is to contact a Siberian breeder in your neighbourhood who only has Siberians and spend there a couple of hours. When your dad has no reaction after the time he usually should have (some have the reaction only the day after so be aware of that), you can assume it will be ok. But don't decide to quickly, nothing is worse to say goodbye to a kitty you just give a place in your heart because it doesn't seem to work out afterall.
On this website almost all Siberian Catteries are linked in the world: http://www.vom-ohlenberg.de/sibi-zuechter.htm

A Ct Rose Siberian Forest Cats Cattery is a very good cattery that will help you find a cattery where you can test, she also knows a lot about the hypo-allergenic idea: http://home.comcast.net/~actrose/page2.html

Thanks for the websites, but i don't speak german, so i can't read that one.

I have 3 Siberians that we got because several members of my family have allergies to cats and we read that they were hypoallergenic. Remember, hypoallergenic does not mean non-allergenic and your father might still react.

You really have to visit the breeder that you'd be purchasing from because different strains of Siberians affect allergic people differently. While we have no reaction to our Gracie, my husband is mildly allergic to our males.
My whole family spent several hours visiting Gracie's breeder so we could make sure we weren't allergic. We bought our boys from a different breeder and and just assumed that noone would react because they were also Siberians.

Siberians are becoming more popular in the U.S. and you can do a google search for breeders.

I tried google. The closest i found was in indiana(we live in Ky), Anisiia cattery, but they ignored my emails! I find hardly any per breeder site. I was hoping the breeders came here like all the other breeds' breeders, and would see my post. Thanks,

They are all links to catteries all over the world, the countries are also written in English so that should not be the problem

Hi - sorry, just read this if your still out there. We have a few Siberian litters a year, mainly we are bengal breeders, but I love the Siberians also and for people who are allergic they could be the answer to having a furry friend. We are expecting litters next month if you are still looking.

Thank you. As a breeder, do you know any other breeders in/near Ky? There is no way i can go all the way to Michigan. i can't really go anywhere at all. My dad won't take me far.

Not off hand...the only other Siberian breeders I know are in Russia. That is where our cats came from. There are not a lot of Siberian breeders out there. And I know that ours usually are spoken for before they are born. Chances are you may have to have a kitten shipped or have the breeder meet you half way if possible. (We will meet people vs. shipping if possible. Wish I could be of more help to you!!

It's okay. thanks. I will wait till the breeder near me (if there is one) responds here.

To me they are just another moggy type breed, they don't look any different from domestics to me. *shakes head*
