We at Pendraig Siberian Cats wish you a joyous holiday season filled with love. May your new year bring many blessings and if you are a lucky owner of a Siberian Cat may that year be full of purrs and fun that leaves lasting memories in your heart.
Love to you all!
Dawn, Doug & Gabriel Campbell
I also have to thank Karat and his breeders. Both Jorrah and Forestwind Siberian Cats have done an amazing job of putting some of the best traditional lines together and Karat has so much to give to my cattery I am so grateful to them both for letting us care for, love and use this wonderful male for the year. I will hope and pray that besides his obviously good looks they also get his amazing temperament and sultry green eyes.
Now onto the introductions for our new Siberian Kittens.
Darling and handsome this boy looks so much like his father, Karat, only in a lovely silver shade.
He has a promising muzzle already and was born with a hefty weight. He was our first kitten and I wondered if Lily was going to give me some males for once. She has only had a few in her breeding career which is surprising as most breeders complain of having way too many male kittens.
He is definitely on hold.
This sweet girl has the most red on her than any of the others, at least for now. She has a lovely blazing red head which I noticed immediately when she was born. She is the second kitten born of this great litter.
I am already quite smitten with her dazzling pattern, bright colors and large muzzle.
This girl is also on hold.
This lovely girl is a very warm brown tabby with inky black markings. I believe she is a torbie but the red is hard to find right now so we shall wait and see.
She is lovely and large and if she inherits her father’s startling green eyes will definitely be a looker.
This sweet girl is on hold for now.
This is the darker girl but she is definitely a brown torbie with a half red foot and some dazzling markings.
She is large and quite sweet already. We expect she will be the apple of her new parent’s eyes when they take her home.
She is on hold for a family on our waiting list.
And finally we have this stunning and large girl. She seems to be silver but it’s early to tell. She is so sweet and adorable.
I love her strong chin and big muzzle. Her markings are also quite alluring as they just have that painted on look which I’ve come to admire within the golden line Siberian cats.
She is also on hold for now.
We hope you have enjoyed seeing our lovely Christmas Siberian Kitten Litter. We will be updating with new photos as they grow.
It is likely all these kittens will be taken by those waiting patiently on our waiting list but we encourage you to fill out an application for kitten adoption if you are interested in our kittens. Though it sometimes requires some waiting our previous clients can tell you that it is well worth the wait to get a kitten from Pendraig Siberian Cats and to become part of our growing cat family.
Happy Holidays!
Well, we’ve made it a whole week and eyes are starting to open. The little darlings are seeing us for the first time and their world though I know their vision is still very blurry. They are so gorgeous and this has to be one of my best litters ever, I know in large part it is due to the stunning sire of the litter Zoran and to his owners for their exceptional care of Dica before and during her pregnancy.
The two kittens that were having trouble are doing much better and gaining well. There is still a long way to go but I am very hopeful that they will continue to thrive. “Little Blue” especially has a fire to her and a strong spirit. She is absolutely adorable and even though she seems tiny compared to her litter mates she is larger than life.
Today we convinced Dica to allow us to steal her kittens for a few minutes to take some photos. She was tolerant and as I put them back I could see her carefully counting them and inspecting them. She is a devoted and fantastic mother Siberian Cat.
All three of these lovely girls are beautiful and each is unique. On the left we have the blue tortie and white (blue calico) Siberian kitten that we are calling “Little Blue”. In the middle, hiding her face is the sweet torbie that may be a brown torbie and white. On the right is a lovely silver torbie and white girl that we are holding for a potential future Pendraig Siberian Cat Queen.
First we have the “Little Blue”. She was born as the size of a preemie Siberian Kitten and had to be supplemented for the first few days of her life. Now she is nursing well from her mother and quickly gaining grown on her siblings. She has a fiery spirit and already loves to cuddle maybe because she received extra cuddles while nursing from a bottle in my hands. She has the most darling red flame on her forehead and a gorgeous blue coat. She may be a blue smoke tortie and white but it’s too soon to tell.
Our three boys are each unique in their own ways. The spotted boy has been lagging a bit behind on weight but with some supplementing he is doing much better and he is a real darling. He has lovely spots on both sides just like his mother in bright red. He seems to be a red silver but 
His brothers are nearly identical in color though their patterns are slightly different. One male however is lighter and may be a higher grade silver when he matures. Mostly I tell them apart because this male has more white on his back legs and in the right light I can see his coat is a paler red.
He has a handsome pattern that will become even more alluring as he matures and the pattern can separate more and resolve and his silver coat can grow in more fully.
Last but not least is the darker red classic male. He is a sweet and affectionate little 
We are very proud of this litter and we love each and every kitten. It is wonderful to have such a colorful and happy group of kittens and we cannot wait to see how they grow and to meet their new families who will, we hope, adore them as much as we do. Kittens like these are part of the great joy of being a Siberian Cat Breeder.
This is a great new litter for us at Pendraig Siberian Cats. We continue our prized foundation line SunFire with the help Nadezhda Siberians and their gorgeous stud, Zoran. We are so proud of Dica, she is an excellent and devoted mother and couldn’t be more special or more loved in our hearts and now beloved also by our friends at Nadezhda.
This girl is big and bold with striking markings! We think she is a silver torbie but it’s hard to say as her nose looks brownish. Some of our silver Siberian kittens start out with some brownish tones
to their coat and develop the inhibitor gene as their coat grows out. This girl has great promise as Zoran’s kittens usually do and we are very pleased overall with the quality of this litter and the match between our Siberian Cat Dica and the stunning stud that lives at Nadezhda Siberians.
Large and darling this girl is a hopeful for a future queen. We are holding her pending evaluation. She is a beautiful silver torbie with wonderful white markings.
She reminds me of Galina from a previous Siberian kitten litter we had last spring. Her markings are eye catching and we are hopeful we will have a SunFire line female kitten to show in CFA and TICA next year. She has signs already of the signature, and luxurious coat of the Cica cattery’s Siberian cats.
We have three lovely red boys. The first is the lighter silver classic. He has a wonderful swirl on each side and white back legs. He may have white front paws but it is hard to see in a red silver kitten this young.
He has a thick coat already an a beautiful head shape. He alternates with his near twin for biggest in the litter, they trade off each day with one being a gram or two heavier.
His brother here is almost identical and we have trouble telling them apart initially. He is slightly darker than his brother and has less white on his back legs.
This boy has a really wide muzzle and strong chin already, the great Cica coat and of course a stunning classic pattern. He is on hold pending evaluation.
He is a chunky monkey like his brother and it is cute to watch them wiggle and squirm pushing each other off the prime nursing areas.
Last but not least we have the last red boy who has the interesting and unique large spots similar to his mother. He has a wonderful coat as you can see in this photo and he is a little darling.
He was one of the kittens we began to supplement as he was not gaining as well but we are happy to report that he is now gaining well and is on his way to being a robust red tabby Siberian cat like his great great grandfather, our first Siberian, Boris.
That concludes the introductions! Soon we will get photos to commemorate their first week. Their eyes will begin to open soon as well and that is always a joy to have the little guys start to see us and interact with their environments more.
All of these kittens are on hold for those on our waiting list and are not available. If you would like a Pendraig Siberian Kitten of your very own please contact us or fill out an application and we will add you to our waiting list. We have two more exciting litters due this month including Lily on Christmas Day and Eowyn on New Years Day.
Happy Holidays from Pendraig Siberian Cats!
Pendraig Boudicca Aslanovna SunFire is a mother again and this time she has had a huge litter of gorgeous babies with Cica’s Zoran Yaroslavovich Black from Nadezhda Siberian Cats. We were sure the litter was going to be bigger this time as Dica was large and very uncomfortable this last week but what a surprise to get 6 lovely Siberian kittens.
Zoran has been a busy boy and has another beautiful litter with our friends, some might even be available if you are looking for a special Siberian kitten to add to your family.
Don’t forget we have more kittens due on Christmas Day at Pendraig Siberian Cats in Texas.
That’s right, its going to be a busy Christmas holiday here at Pendraig Siberian Cats. We have 3 litters of kittens due over the holidays and our waiting lists are nearly full. Our lovely girl Dica is due with Zoran’s kittens (from stud Nadezhda Siberian Cats) any day now. We have a gorgeous stud visiting us from Forestwind Siberians named Karat and he has potentially sired two upcoming litters. One is with Lily and she is due on Christmas day if she is pregnant, which looks likely. The second is with Eowyn who is due for New Year’s Day.
In 2010 we have some exciting developments including our first litter where Golden Siberian Cats will be possible. Check back for a big update on our plans for the New Year.
Our lovely girl Dica leaves on Sept 17, 2009 for her romantic getaway. She will be meeting Grisha’s handsome half brother, the stunning Zoran. He resides at Nadezhda Siberian Cats in Houston.
After this litter we hope to get her on a nice long break. If you have wanted a kitten out of Dica to call your own please don’t hesitate. It will be late next year before she is bred again.
If Dica cycles on schedule she will be bred soon for Kittens in November or December. It is our hope that we will get a gorgeous male out of our SunFire line combined with Zoran’s large size, good looks and amazing muzzle.
Dica’s two kittens from her first litter with Grisha are quite lovely, large and amazing. The male red silver classic Siberian Cat Drako is going as a stud and show prospect to a new cattery. His sister Halinka has already left for her home and is settled in with her new boyfriend and her new momma. Please read our Siberian Kitten testimonials to see how she’s settling in.
Dica will leave for her romantic getaway on Thursday and return to us in a few weeks if all goes as planned. Zoran’s wonderful family is going to take great care of our little girl and if it wasn’t for this wonderful friendship we’d never consider using an outside stud in this manner.
We cannot wait to see the kittens these two cats produce. If Zoran’s first litter is any indication these kittens will be amazing.
Please check back often for updates!

Dawn Campbell
Golden Siberian Cats are truly unique. We have long admired this color and have done extensive research to find less popular lines, with lower inbreeding, to bring to our cattery to begin our golden program.
We welcome our first Golden Siberian Cat Queen with open arms. Her name is Esenia Auric and she is from some amazing breeders working with the golden color, Auric Cattery in Russia. Esenia has one of the best expressions of golden, where it is not too orange nor is it dull. Her color resembles my favorite gem, a citrine, with all the glorious shades of gold, yellow, brown and even a pale golden white. Her coat also has a unique gleam that dazzles the eye in the sun light.
Not since red have we found a color we love more and for my husband this is definitely his favorite. Of course Esenia was a present for him and he is quite taken with her. We are fortunate to have this lovely girl, not only a beautiful golden Siberian kitten but affectionate and darling as well. She has truly made us fall in love all over again with this amazing breed.
We are proud to announce the launch of our Golden Siberian Cat program here at Pendraig Siberian Cats. To compliment Esenia we are getting more golden carriers to augment our lines and help us to produce some rare golden Siberian Cats, hopefully! We hope to bring Golden, and lovely warm brown tabby cats into the homes of people all over the United States and perhaps even further.
Seeing a great deal of inbreeding among some of the more prestigious catteries we also hope to bridge the gap and bring genetic diversity back to golden lines. We are in a unique position to do this thanks to our own exclusive foundation line. We are also getting our golden carrier male, a gorgeous silver tabby named Duke from foundation lines that carry golden. Combined we should have some of the most beautiful Golden Siberian Cats with the most diverse genetics available. We can only hope to do our predecessors proud and one day produce the amazing type, superior health and beauty they have become known for in Russia and beyond.
We are also happy to make new friends within the golden loving community as we strive together to preserve this rare color and also to promote it and educated judges and breeders alike on how to recognize and how to breed for these precious gems.
Look for more in the future as we welcome our other golden line Siberian Cats to our Cattery here in Texas. We hope you will enjoy them as much as we do.
Regards,
Dawn Campbell

Congratulations to Lily and Grisha who have produced a gorgeous litter of kittens for us! Lily went into labor late yesterday afternoon and promptly delivered all three kittens before midnight. She is an old pro now and didn't need any help. However, she wasn't happy unless I stayed by her side.
The true love of red starts in my childhood, when I found a litter of kittens in the neighborhood. All the boys were red and the girls were color points that looked much like Ragdolls. I begged and pleaded to my parents and they let me pick two to bring home. The colorpoint female was my mom's but the red boy, he was mine. I named him Tiger. I will always remember him and my love of red has never wavered.
Dear sir/madam,
We're writing to you as happy owners of Siberian cat that we've purchased last year from Pendraig Siberian Cats cattery in Texas.
We've selected this cattery after a careful research. The reason we approached a cattery and not a shelter is simply because our son has severe allergies from most of the animals including cats, and we were forced to narrow down on the only hypo-allergenic cat breed - Siberians.
We're very happy with our choice since we've received the non allergenic animal and our son doesn't display any signs of allergies. We're also very appreciative of the fact that we've received from Pendraig cattery a well socialized, potty-trained, and extremely healthy kitten. In addition, we continue to keep in contact with our breeders, they answer any of our questions regarding care for our cat and give us all of the assistance and advice we might need.
We would like to let Texas Senators know that we believe that this bill is unacceptable! It discriminates unfairly against responsible breeders like Pendraig Siberian Cats. We're very much oppose of the bill that regulates the right of any individual to own or breed an intact animal.
In addition we believe that if you want to help lower euthanasia rates, that a NO KILL State is possible! You should probably consider to put in place the reforms to shelters and animal control policies as recommended by the No Kill Advocacy Center!
We would also like to point your attention to the fact that this measures might increase the abandonment of pets and cause shelters to be flooded with dogs and cats as people cannot afford to comply with the outrageous fees and fines! ASPCA is officially OPPOSED to Mandatory Spay and Neuter! ASPCA also says that mandatory spay neuter measures do not work.
Our family strongly oppose legislation that infringes on the rights of Americans to own and raise animals.
We live in New Jersey and were planning to visit Texas. However we're outraged of the prospect of passing this bill, and won't be visiting Texas should you pass the bill!
Sincerely,
Olga Natanzon, Dr. Victor Natanzon, & two sons.
English Town, NJ
