✨ Fun Fact
Siberian cats are Russia's national cat — and they produce less of the allergenic Fel d 1 protein in their saliva, making them one of the better breeds for allergy sufferers.
A large, powerful, natural breed from Russia with a thick, water-resistant triple coat suited for extreme cold. Muscular, agile, and excellent climbers. Known for their dog-like devotion and surprisingly low-allergen production compared to other breeds.
