There Are Siberian Kittens Cats For Sale Georgia Pet Owners Recommend

By Cynthia Richardson


Before you decide to add a pet to your household, you need to carefully consider your lifestyle, financial situation, and the amount of time you have for animal care, feeding, and exercise. There are all kinds of living things that people call pets. Some have traditional dogs, while others have fish, reptiles, and rodents. Cat people might be interested in looking into the purchase of one of the Siberian kittens cats for sale Georgia pet owners love.

For those with limited time, a cat may be an ideal companion. Most are comfortable in small spaces and don't expect to go for walks during the day. You won't have to worry about house training a cat. Just show it where the litter box is, and keep the litter clean. A cat will sleep most of the time, and may want to be petted when it is awake, but a feline generally is much less needy than its canine counterpart.

If you are looking for a purebred cat, and you have time to groom one, you might want to do some research on Siberians. These beautiful animals originated in Russia, as the name implies. The breed has been around for more than a thousand years, and like many felines was bred to control the rodent population in cities and on farms. It was widely believed this cat was magic and protected children from harm.

Most adult Siberians are very large. The males can weigh up to twenty-five pounds. Many people mistake them for Maine Coons, but this is another breed. Their heads are shaped differently, and their ears and eyes are unique to them. Because Siberians originated in the coldest regions of Russia, they developed extremely thick coats to protect them from the harsh climate.

Siberians are fun loving and good natured animals that love to play with toys that challenge and puzzle them. They're also skilled climbers and have the ability to jump onto the highest of cabinets. It is not unusual to find breakable objects that once sat on a bookshelf lying broken in pieces after the cat has been left unattended in the room with them.

Not all felines are patient with children, but most Siberians tolerate them very well. They don't seem to mind some rough play if they are not cornered or mistreated. Strangers may find them shy initially, but they usually abandon hiding places after a few minutes.

Siberians do have a health drawback. They are prone to have a heart condition in which the heart muscles thicken. This can shorten their lives significantly. Before you purchase one of these felines, you should insist the breeder produce paperwork verifying there is not a genetic history of the disease.

It is important to remember pets may be with your family for years. You should be prepared to make the commitment before you purchase any kind of animal.
