of LOS GATOS, CALIFORNIA
SiberianGatos sells hypo allergenic Siberian kittens and rare colorpoint Siberian kittens in Northern California. Colorpoints Siberian Cats are also called Neva Masquerade as this masked variation was first reported in the area along the banks of the Neva River. Nevas were among the foundation Siberian cats when the Siberian breed was established. We currently have a few kittens available as well as a retiring breeder (see Ekaterina Etna under breeders).

SiberianGatos is a TICA registered Cattery located in the San Francisco Bay Area of California. Our Siberian breeding cats are imported from Europe, and registered with TICA, CFA and FIFe. Both our male and female Siberian breeding cats live in the house with us as pets. Our Siberian kittens for sale are raised as household pets, never seeing a cage. They are affectionate, highly intelligent, playful, beautiful, and easygoing companions. All of our breeding Siberian cats have been echoed for HCM and have been found to be negative; they have been re-echoed in 2007. We do not use equivocals. We will not sell to Siberian Cat breeders who do not follow this practice. We are a Corona Virus Free cattery. We periodically screen all of our cats with Dr. Addie at the University of Glasgow in Scotland. They were last screened in 2007 and all were negative.

Arkady is our new Siberian stud. He is a beautiful blue lynxpoint. He has lovely boning, color, and very soft and low allergenicity non-shedding fur. He is a large cat already, weighing 12 pounds at age ten months. Arkady has been sired by the quadruple grand champion Siberian cat Kotik Dikaya Krassa. He is a very sweet and gentle cat who is the webmaster's current favorite. During his recent HCM testing, he was so cooperative that he was used to standardize the instrument for kitten his age. Enquire about stud fees.

Ginevra of the Renaissance is our queen. Her fur is remarkable even for a Siberian cat, being extraordinarily silky and non-shedding. Ginevra is highly bonded to our child, who selected her as his soulmate when the cats arrived. She plays fetch with him, greets him at the door, and allows him intimacies, which would never be tolerated to impinge on her dignity from others. Ginevra will come to comfort him when he is upset. She (even when quite pregnant) still takes off galloping after Jamie when he heads upstairs. |
Valentina is of our breeding by a different stud. Originally, we had planned to keep a different girl as our breeder. But Valentina was so cuddly, we had to keep her and let the other girl go to the stud's owner. She is a green-eyed, red silver tabby Siberian cat. The coloring you see is on the tips of the fur only. The underlying fur is pale. She is a great natural athlete and loves leaping and turning somersaults in the air. |

Buber Mador on his papers, Sunshine in our hearts, is our retiring stud Siberian cat. He is cream cameo colorpoint carrier. Our Sunshine exhibits that most desirable or all stud characteristics: a warm-hearted people loving temperament. Come meet him. When we have tiny kittens, he responds to their little mews, grooms them and lies in their basket with them. |
Ekaterina Etna is our seal silver tortie lynx point with white. She may be our smartest Siberian cat, and they are smart breed. From the first we called her Ekaterina the Great, because she believed there was nothing she could not do. Absolute confidence and cuddles is a perfect description of this beautiful cat. We have just decided to retire her as a queen. She will soon be available for petting out. |
Siberians are hypo allergenic, which is originally what drew us to this breed. After we saw this chart about their other qualities, we were sure we wanted this breed.

Siberian Kittens
We have Siberian kittens available for sale, including the rare colorpoint Siberian kitten. The kittens are raised underfoot in a home. Our Siberian kittens are petted and handled by adults and a child every day, so they are very well socialized. The kittens are box trained and allowed to roam freely over our Turkish carpets.

Our kittens are sold with a health guarantee.
Siberian Gatos' health guarantee says that a kitten will stay healthy for the first two weeks after you get it, if not exposed to other cats. If it gets sick, bring it back to us and we will take care of it and return it healthy. If you live more than a two hours' drive away, call us or our vet and we will advise you how to take care of it and if it must be seen by another vet. If either we or our vet who has seen the kitten at age 12 weeks and given it a clean bill of health says to take it to another vet, we will pay that initial vet bill and discuss the treatment with you for further decisions if the vet calls us at the time of examining the kitten.
We can provide references from the only person who thought her kitten had a problem and whom we offered to pay for a vet if there was any difficulty, after giving her some advice. The kitten was fine without the vet.
If your kitten dies of a genetic defect any time in the first 10 years of life as determined on autopsy by a licensed veterinarian, we will return the purchase price or get you another, similar kitten. We accept that hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is a genetic defect.
Check out other catteries' health clauses as you investigate. We have a short waiting list for our kittens and do not mind if you buy elsewhere, but we urge everyone to check the health contract that is offered.
