Located in the Tampa Bay area of Florida, our family is passionate about raising exceptional Russian Siberian kittens, including Neva Masquerades, with an emphasis on health, temperament, beauty, and traditional bloodlines. Siberians are truly a remarkable breed, and it is difficult to fully understand how special they are until you experience life with one yourself.
Long before bringing our first Siberians home, we spent years researching the breed, bloodlines, temperament, and history. We were drawn not only to their extraordinary beauty, but also to their affectionate personalities, intelligence, playful nature, and strong connection with their families. Because the Siberian breed originated in Russia, it was important to us to go directly to the source in search of authentic traditional bloodlines and exceptional pedigrees.
Our Siberian journey began with two extraordinary cats imported directly from Russia. From the beginning, our goal has been to preserve the integrity, health, temperament, and beauty of these remarkable cats while honoring the roots of the breed through carefully maintained pedigrees and selective breeding practices.
What started as a deep love for the breed quickly became something even more meaningful for our family. As our children grew older and left for college, each one wanted a Siberian kitten of their own because of the incredible bond they had formed with our cats. After experiencing firsthand the exceptional temperament and companionship these cats brought into our lives, we made the decision to thoughtfully continue these extraordinary bloodlines through carefully planned litters.
Because we keep our breeding program small and selective, every kitten receives an exceptional amount of personal attention, affection, and hands-on care from the very beginning. Our kittens are raised as part of our family and are carefully nurtured to develop the loving, playful, and confident temperaments Siberians are known for. With both complete family involvement and full-time dedicated daily care, we are able to give each kitten the individualized attention and oversight they deserve, ensuring every detail of their care, development, and socialization receives the highest level of attention.
To us, Siberians are far more than beautiful cats — they are loyal companions, gentle family members, and truly one of the most remarkable breeds in the world.

Why Nevas are so unique
It is easy to fall in love with a Neva's coloring, but it is their personalities that stay with a family for a lifetime. Nevas are bold, curious, and deeply people-oriented — they follow you from room to room, greet you at the door, and answer you with a soft trill. They are gentle with children, easy with dogs, and endlessly entertaining, yet never pushy. Few breeds are so affectionate and so self-assured at the same time.
Unlike Siamese cats, Nevas still retain the thick triple Siberian coat, heavy bone structure, and forest-cat appearance. So you get the dramatic colorpoint markings paired with the powerful, regal Siberian look — and that combination is what makes the breed so visually stunning.
There is no other cat quite like this breed.
These are exceptionally raised, deeply loved, carefully selected Siberians from a boutique preservation-focused breeding program — not mass-produced kittens.
