Mirabeau - the sweetest representative of her kind - 'fluffy'

The Siberian cat is one of the most popular breeds in Russia, where it originates, as you can conclude from its name. They originated from the crossbreeding of the Siberian domestic cat and the Ukrainian wildcat. They arrived in Europe in the 1980s when the first kittens were transported from St. Petersburg, quickly gaining popularity among all cat lovers. Strong and gentle, friendly towards humans, and very playful – that’s how they could be described briefly.

Meet Mirabeau, the fluffiest darling from Instagram hiding behind the profile @mirabeau.the.siberian. Find out what sets her apart from other cats of this breed in the following.

Mirabeau is a darling who will immediately catch your attention with one detail. Although all representatives of this breed are easily recognizable by their luxurious, soft fur, this Siberian cat has an unusual mark: an orange spot on her nose. Her irresistible blue eyes stand out even more in contrast to her gray fur. The lush fur evokes the cold north from which they originate, but beneath it lies a soft, affectionate heart. If you’re wondering about their character, as cats are truly unique animals and each breed carries different traits and characteristics, the Siberian cat is an ideal pet for singles as well as families.

These cats have amazing jumping abilities, and since they are obedient, you will easily train them, often referred to as having a ‘dog-like character’. They are quiet, but they love to purr, and unlike other cats, they respond to sounds similar to chirping, which will motivate you to have conversations with them. It’s interesting to mention that the Siberian cat has been declared the national cat of Russia. Thus, you will often see them in the homes of Russian oligarchs and aristocracy as they are considered a symbol of prestige.
