Which cat breed is right for you?
The Abyssinian is one of the oldest known cat breeds — believed to have originated in Southeast Asia or the coast of the Indian Ocean, despite being named after Ethiopia (formerly Abyssinia). This medium-sized cat weighs 6–10 pounds and has a lean, muscular build that reflects its athletic nature. The Abyssinian's distinctive ticked tabby coat comes in warm ruddy, red, blue, and fawn shades, giving each hair multiple bands of color.
Abyssinians are endlessly curious, highly active cats that love to climb, explore, and supervise every household activity. They form strong bonds with their families and do well with children and other pets, though they prefer interactive play over being a lap cat. Their intelligence and playful energy make them one of the most engaging companion cats.

The Siberian — Russia's national cat — is a natural breed that has existed in the forests of Siberia for at least 1,000 years, first appearing in Russian fairy tales and eventually standardized as a breed in the 1980s. This large, powerful cat weighs 10–20 pounds and features a triple-layered, waterproof coat that protected it through harsh Russian winters — a dense undercoat, longer middle layer, and coarse guard hairs. They come in all colors and patterns, including the stunning pointed "Neva Masquerade" variety.
Siberians are affectionate, adventurous cats with a playful, kitten-like spirit that lasts well into their senior years. They love water — don't be surprised to find one splashing in the sink or drinking from the faucet. Gentle and patient, they are excellent with children and other pets, and they possess a calm confidence that makes them unfazed by the chaos of a busy household.
