In the beginning.....

I first saw Kurilian Bobtails when attending a cat show in Moscow, Russia.

Wow they took my breath away and I knew I had to have one or two. I stayed in touch with some of the premier Russian breeders spending time to learn more and appreciate the breed and in 2013 I went over to select and then a few weeks later to collect my first two kittens.

I’ve stayed very much in touch with my Russian friends, it helps me to select only the best breedinglines and its a good way to network and learn more about bloodlines and parentage.

Sadly its also a way to let each other know about back yard breeders of which they are some in the UK, be aware!

About the Breed.....

The Kurilian Bobtail is a cat which originates from the Kuril Islands between Russia and Japan, and Sakhalin Island and the Kamchatka peninsula of Russia.

The original short haired Kurilian is a natural breed, known on the islands for over 200 years.

As pets they are popular in Russia and the Far East of Europe and now we bring them to the UK!!

The breed is mostly known for its distinctive "pom-pom" kinked, short tail, medium to large, substantially muscular, semi-cobby body, with longer hind legs than fronts, and a rounded, broad, wedge shaped head.

Kurilians are not limited to any particular range of coat or eye colours. Kurilians come in all colours and eye colour is not related to coat colour. However, white cats should have either blue or odd eyes.

Short or long haired, its most important feature is its fluffy tail with its twists and turns and short length. The back is slightly arched, with hind legs longer than the fronts, similar to the Manx and Cymric cats of the Isle of Man.

It does not however suffer from the health issues that affect the Manx, infact the breed is extremely healthy and long lived.

The Kurilian Bobtail is a strong cat with a wild appearance, medium to large in size, brawny with strong substantial boning, but despite their looks they are very gentle.

They have excellent health and a very well balanced character with a trusting and outgoing personality.

They are also Hypo allergenic, so if you have cat allergies, they are the breed for you!

They adore people and love attention. They are very active and are the masters of all they survey!
