What are Neva Masquerade kittens?
Neva Masquerade kittens are colorpoint Siberian cats with blue eyes and plush semi-long coats. They are affectionate, people-oriented, and known for calm, bonded companionship.

Are Siberian cats cuddly?
Yes. Siberian cats are cuddly, affectionate cats that enjoy close physical proximity and calm snuggling. They prefer voluntary closeness over constant lap sitting and are affectionate without being clingy. Neva Masquerade cats share the same temperament.

Siberian cats typically live 12–18 years, with many indoor Siberians reaching 18–20+ years. Genetics, indoor living, diet, and preventive care play the biggest roles in lifespan.

Siberian cat grooming requires an understanding of the breed’s dense triple coat, seasonal shedding, and skin health needs. Proper brushing, combing, and routine care keep the coat comfortable, prevent compacted undercoat, and support long-term health.

Siberian cats do shed, especially during seasonal coat blow. Their dense triple-layer coat releases undercoat heavily in spring and more lightly in fall, with moderate shedding year-round.

Siberian cats are often compared to hypoallergenic breeds, but no cat is allergy-free. Tolerance depends on Fel d 1 levels, individual biology, and environment—not breed alone.

Siberian kittens can sometimes feel easier to tolerate at first, but allergy reactions often change as cats mature. Early tolerance does not guarantee long-term compatibility.

Fel d 1 is the main protein responsible for cat allergies. Siberian cats still produce Fel d 1, but individual tolerance varies widely depending on the cat, environment, and exposure.

The ideal Siberian cat diet is high in animal protein, moderate in fat, low in carbohydrates, and rich in moisture. Siberian cats are a large, athletic, slow-maturing breed with a dense triple coat, so their nutrition must support muscle development, joint health, coat quality, and long-term metabolic balance.
