Cats might seem like solitary creatures, but studies show they form attachments with their caregivers, similar to dogs and even young humans.

Zarina is a wonderfully excellent cat, she loves attention and people but seeks to be the only cat, blue sunshine classic tabby with white, a little over a year old. She has all the classic Siberian characteristics, chittering over toys, will fetch faux 🐭, and loses her mind over the cat dancer toy. She is a gem, gentle and kind, and someone would be so🍀 to have her. Zarina is in search of her next adventure and her new family must have amusements, games and cat trees to keep her intrigued and entertained.
Could that be you?🖤🖤

As a communication scholar and researcher, I find this study fascinating. This is where my professional background and cats collide, and each time an article is published that reveals a new layer, another wrinkle, it only further demonstrates why other cultures revered their intelligence, physiology, and how researchers are starting to invest more time in pulling back the curtain to better understand them. 🖤🖤🖤

A study published in Behavioral Processes by Charlotte de Mouzon and colleagues from Université Paris Nanterre found that cats tend to vocalize more when interacting with male owners than female ones.

The research, which involved observing 10 cats and their owners, indicated that cats meowed roughly twice as often with men.

Researchers hypothesized that this may be due to the cats receiving less verbal and non-verbal communication from male owners, prompting them to meow more in an attempt to gain attention.

The study emphasized how cats are sensitive to human communication styles and adapt their behavior accordingly.

Further findings showed that women generally spoke more to their cats and used a higher-pitched, affectionate tone, which cats appeared to respond to positively.

This aligns with prior research indicating that cats can distinguish human voices and even recognize their owner’s voice specifically, as shown in studies published in journals such as Animal Cognition.

This adds credibility to the idea that cats, being highly perceptive domestic animals, adjust their vocalizations based on their owners’ responsiveness.

The research also builds on earlier studies on human-animal interaction and highlights the nuanced communication that exists between cats and humans.

We love updates from our families.

Here are graduates: Christian Dior (blue silver classic tabby w/white) and Halston (brown spotted tabby w/white) pictured at 7.5 months old from our first litter.

Proud Parents are Gremlineva Valentina & Kubaland*PL Rimini.

These beautiful boys are living their best life in New Mexico. Like whiskey aging in a barrel, this slow-maturing breed will reach their full grandeur around five years of age, they are off to a great start.

Little known fact, the late Anne Rice was a big fan of Siberian Cats. It's been close to four years since she passed.

As a breeder, I remember feeling an immediate kinship with the much loved author when I learned she got her first Siberian. Beyond the macabre of the supernatural, Anne Rice intrinsically understood how this breed was different. And once you understand that, there isn’t another that can compare.🖤🖤🐈‍⬛

How many cats do you have?

Anne Rice (6:25)

Seven.

Interviewer (Leanne Hanson) (6:26)

Well, three of them have decided to come and check us out, haven't they?

Anne Rice (6:30)

Yeah, they're all Siberian cats. And they're wonderful cats.

Interviewer (Leanne Hanson) (6:35)

And very quiet.

Anne Rice (6:36)

They are quiet. They live a silent life. But they. They are very intelligent.

Novelist Anne Rice was known for her supernatural tales about vampires, witches, and ghosts. In 1976, she gained notoriety for Interview with the Vampire
