Our Story
Welcome to “Ropalo Siberians”, home-base cattery, that locates in sunny Kennewick, Washington. Since we are busy with growing these healthy and full of life kittens for you, we will try to reply to you a quickly as possible.
Starting and properly running a cattery is a substantial commitment, and a labor of love.
Our decision to start a cattery came when we started searching for hypoallergenic cat for ourselves, and learned about this breed. We heard and now see for ourselves that Siberians are affectionate yet restrained and independent. Their sweetness, intelligence, playfulness, and independence make them great companions. They like to observe what you are doing, supervise you and maybe copy some of your steps. They always welcome us back home and showoff their puffy tails and a bright and gorgeous Gold/Red/Black coat. Our goal is to give the new parents same satisfaction and joy in life as we have when we received them. Their attributes and characters will also give you and all of your friends a delightful impression! All these great characteristics is what factored into what made us choose to start working with the pure bread Traditional Siberian cats.
The breeding cats in our cattery were carefully selected and acquired from purebred Traditional Siberian cats ONLY.
They are from Russia, from long-standing breeders of purebred Champion parents. Our cats are registered in WCF (World Cats Federation). They also registered as purebred with over 5 generations of Tradition Siberians in TICA (The International Cat Association).
Your kitten will come neutered, will have all mandatory shots, vaccinations and microchip. Kittens also will have health travel and pedigree certifications.
Ropalo Siberians Cattery decided to works with only purebred Traditional Siberian cats of golden, black, red/sunshine color variations.
All our kittens are healthy. Their parents are of a great pedigree, well-mannered, and do not carry viral or genetic diseases. We raise our Siberians with love, by hand, in a clean and loving environment.

The Siberian cat is the first domestic Russian breed of cats recognized abroad. This was the initial breed that began to work for the founding club of the cat lovers. Only in 1987 in Moscow and St. Petersburg, and later in other cities, work began on breeding these domestic cats. In 1992, the breed was recognized by the WCF (World Cat Federation) and in 1997 by the World Federation of Cat Lovers (FIFe). Thanks to the unique properties of cats of this breed and the great work of Russian felinologists, today this breed has received huge and amazing recognition all over the world. It is difficult even to list the countries in which Siberian cats are bred now: Australia, England, USA, Canada, Germany, Italy, Spain, Finland... Thanks to the enthusiasm of Siberian lovers, our wonderful breed has become popular all over the world today.
