Which cat breed is right for you?
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.

The Ukrainian Levkoy is a distinctive and very rare breed created in Ukraine in 2004 by crossing Donskoy (Don Sphynx) cats with Scottish Folds. The result is a hairless or nearly hairless cat with unique inward-folding ears that curl gently forward like a levkoy (wallflower) petal — giving the breed its name. Weighing 7–12 pounds, this medium-sized cat has an angular, dog-like face with prominent cheekbones, almond-shaped eyes, and soft, elastic, wrinkled skin that ranges from completely bald to a fine velour covering.
Ukrainian Levkoys are gentle, social cats that form strong attachments to their families and enjoy being handled and cuddled. They are intelligent and playful without being hyperactive, content to alternate between interactive play sessions and long naps in warm spots. Friendly with children and other pets, they are adaptable and easygoing in most household environments.
