Personality
Siberians are considered to be quite intelligent and good problem-solvers. They are loyal, outgoing, playful, affectionate and sociable, making the breed a good choice for those who think that they are so-called “dog people” rather than “cat people.” Many a devout dog-lover has succumbed to the zany, charming ways of the Siberian cat. The Cat Fanciers’ Association (CFA) profile of this breed warns people in a friendly way to “[e]xpect the unexpected when sharing your home with a Siberian.”
Activity Level
Siberians are known to be exceptionally active and athletic. They can jump great distances and leap to great heights with no apparent effort. They have been described as having a talent to fly through the air with the greatest of ease. Despite this skill, their agility and grace usually helps them to avoid demolishing fragile household décor during their zooming romps. Still, this is not a cat to leave unattended in a room with priceless breakable possessions on the mantle or coffee table.
Behavioral Traits
Siberians are dog-like in a number of ways. For example, many of them will run to the front door, greet their owners happily and then follow them determinedly around the house until they settle in for the evening. Others will respond to their names and come quickly when they are called.
