DESCRIPTION

Friendly but self-sufficient, this beautiful cat doesn't ask for much attention. The most accepted theory regarding the ancestry of this breed indicates that it emerged near the Russian port of Archangel, situated just beneath the Arctic Circle. Thought to have been introduced to Europe by sailors, the Russian Blue was already gaining attention in the U.K. by the close of the 19th century and made its appearance in North America in the early 20th century. Given its elegant demeanor and stunning soft blue coat, it is no wonder that the Russian Blue has become a highly sought-after breed. Although it tends to be reserved around unfamiliar people, this cat offers an abundance of gentle affection to its owners. Different color variations of the breed have been created under the designation Russian Shorthair.
