The Siberian Glory Cattery
We are an Elite, Award-Winning, TICA-registered and accredited Siberian cattery.
We hand-select the best Siberians in Europe and Russia in order to continue improving their excellent nature, and hypo-allergenic features.
The Siberian Cat
The Siberian cat has an incredible loving and gentle disposition. They love to actively engage humans. A Siberian cat’s personality is often compared to that of a dog. They will follow you, sit with you, play with you, and sleep with you.
They have a medium to long coat on a rounded body, a gorgeous neck ruff, and long flowing fur on their tails, giving them a very bushy appearance.
Their fur is soft like silk when they are kittens and gains a slightly rougher texture as they mature.
A weekly brushing is usually all that is needed to keep their coats in great shape. Unlike other breeds, their fur will not become irreversibly tangled within a day or two.
The Siberian is very muscular with a dense bone structure. They are slow to mature and get along great with other pets and children.
They are a larger breed of cat and come in many colors and patterns. The Siberian is one of the 3 breeds of forest cats and is also one of the oldest natural breeds of cats having been around for over a thousand years in their native Russian homeland.
In 1990, the first Siberian cat made the crossing over the Atlantic Ocean to the United States.
The personalities of the Siberian are more dog-like than feline. They communicate in a variety of ways, from their expressive eyes, headbutting, to their wonderful chirping and trills.
They love to bespoken to! They love human interaction, will develop a strong loyal, bond to you, come when called and greet you at the door. They are intelligent and easy to train (almost like a dog).
Between their gentle nature, love of humans, and their hypoallergenic traits, it is no wonder they make one of the most loved pets in the world.
Our Premier Siberian Cattery
The Siberian Glory cattery puts the interest of our kittens first. Our furry friends are unrestricted as they freely walk, play, and socialize in our home to grow familiar with humans, and other cats.
We give them the best and healthiest nutrition available: a diet of raw meats, freshly prepared to help cement their strong bones and muscle mass in their youngest months.
We are intentionally a small cattery, aiming to not have more than two litters at a time in order to give every kitten the individual attention they deserve.
You’re invited to our home to meet them closer when you consider adopting a Siberian kitten into your home.
FAQs
-
The prefix “hypo” means “less than” or “lower”.
Siberian cats are proven to often have significantly reduced Fel-D1 levels in their saliva.
What is Fel-D1? Fel-D1 is a protein is a protein secreted in cats saliva which is most frequently linked to cat allergies. “Cat fur allergies” are usually, in fact, Fel-D1 allergies.
Some people are extremely sensitive to it, no matter how low the amount. There is no way to know your tolerance without experimentation.
Are all cat allergies caused by Fel-D1? No. While the majority of them air, there are too many potential allergens to count. Saliva allergies are the most common, but it is possible to be allergic to other things such as cat litter.
If you are unsure what is the cause of your allergies, we highly recommend you to visit us to test your allergies in person.
Are all Siberians hypo-allergenic? Low Fel-D1 levels come from a specific gene that our cattery is working to preserve.
All our cats are tested for low Fel-D1 levels in order to make sure that their kittens will also have low Fel-D1 levels.

All available kittens can be viewed on the Available Kittens page.
Often our kittens are all spoken for, in which case we will open the waiting list for the next litter. The waiting list can also be viewed on the Available Kittens page.
-
You may have heard about breeders raising cats in barns, sheds, or even cages. We do not engage in any such practice.
Our Siberians live and play inside our home. Our Siberians grow up healthy and happy because they are loved and well cared for right in the heart of our family, just as you would want them to be!They are never confined to small space unless if they are traveling.
-
No. But we can offer that service by request
While we require you to perform the procedure, we do not perform it ourselves.
Siberians are a slow-maturing breed, and they require important hormones to properly grow and develop in a healthy way.
We recommend that you do not spay/neuter your kitten until they reach a certain age (6-8 months for males, 7-9 for females).
-
You can contact us to tell us which litters you are interested in. We require a $250 non-refundable deposit to sign up for the wait-list, which will be deducted from the final price.

-
No. Our deposits are non-refundable. We encourage you to wait until you are certain about your intent to adopt a kitten.
Deposits help us make sure every kitten finds a home.
-
Our kittens receive a thorough health examination by a licensed veterinarian, are vaccinated, and receive a deworming treatment before leaving.
A vet record is provided to the kitten's new owner, along with a written 2 year health guarantee, plus an optional free trial of health insurance.
All litters are registered with The International Cat Association (TICA) and new owners receive their kitten's registration form (blue slip) after sharing their vet's certificate of spaying/neutering.
-
Yes. In addition to their veterinarian treatments including their health certificate and vet passport, we provide a goody bag containing food samples, toys, and additional information that you may find useful.
-
Shipping kittens (especially internationally) is very stressful for them. As such, we prefer to find families which are able to pick up their kitten in person.
We do welcome those able to fly in person to pick them up, or the hiring of a professional pet courier.
As an option, we can escort a kitten to your location at your expense. Please discuss this with us if this is something you will need.
-
“Fel d 1” lab testing requires us to send saliva samples to a laboratory in the USA.
The cost of the service to test a single kitten is $400 USD.
Let us know if this is something you require, and we will help arrange it.
Do note that we provide a substantially cheaper option: contact us to arrange a visit to meet (and sniff) the cats in person.
-
This depends upon each kitten's individual needs. I do not allow them to leave me until I feel they are both physically and emotionally ready.
I also need to be sure they are completely independent from their mother. So the timing can vary between kittens, but usually they are ready to go home between the ages of 10 and 12 weeks.

Calls are difficult to manage, especially in high volume. Additionally, they are prone to misunderstandings and do not easily allow record-keeping.
Email is our only form of contact for those reasons. Please use our contact form to begin.
