The Search For a Siberian Kitten
The search for a Siberian kitten does not have to be a daunting one. Siberian kittens can be found most anywhere in New England ranging in price is from $900- $2000 depending on where and, what hat you are looking for. The average price range is $1600.
When you’re finding a price that is too high or too low you should question why. Is the breeder charging more for a certain color? Does the breeder spay/neuter and, microchip?
Have the kittens been vaccinated? How many vaccinations have they had? Is there a health guarantee? Are they come with a completed registration or, did they just come with a preliminary blue slip? Is the breeder willing to stand behind her kittens should a problem arise? These are the extra benefits that you’re paying for with a responsible breeder.
Buying from a responsible breeder means that the parents have been DNA tested for genetic diseases like PKD and PKD-1 as well as, ultrasound scannned for HCM. you want to make sure that they have been scanned yearly or pretty close to that. One scan for HCM does not mean that the lines are free and clear. You also want to make sure that they were scanned by a certified veterinary cardiologist and not just a regular veterinarian. Make sure that your breeder is willing to show you test results from the parents of the kitten you are buying.
When looking for your Siberian kitten, it is so important to find a breeder you can trust. A breeder that will be there for you for the lifetime of your kitten who, has spent lots of time, effort and money raising your kitten and, cares about that kitten as much as you do. A breeder that will be there in the event a problem should arise.
Breeders know their cats and kittens...they know their dispositions and can match potential owners up with the right kitten. The breeder client relationship is pretty much an 18 year commitment.
Does the breeder show their cats? This is an indication of dedication on the breeders part. Dedication not only to her cats but to the breed. By not showing and not keeping the Siberian consistent with the breed type, it is easy to then just be breeding nothing more than a pretty, long-haired cat.
Sometimes a breeder will keep a kitten a little longer to evaluate it for showing or breeding only to then changed her mind and decide to sell it. This does not mean that now they are a bargain or damaged goods because they are older. This is just another exceptional kitten that has become available.
The Siberian does not mature until they are between three and five years old. Many times getting an older kitten is better because, they have already gone through that horrible, wild, climbing up on everything stage and, are ready to become a well behaved member of your household. It is truly false information that an older kitten will not bond strongly. On the contrary, they are even more apt to bond more quickly and stronger. They have had extra time with the breeder, their parents and siblings making them much more well adjusted.
