About the rare and gorgeous Siberian Neva Masquerade Forest Cat
The term Neva Masquerade refers to the colouring. They have coloured points unlike any other of the Forest Cat family. Their cousins, Norwegian Forest Cats and Maine Coon Forest Cats do not have this type of colouring. Although the Siberian Forest Cat is primarily a climber and hunter, they make excellent house cats as long as they have somewhere to play, climb, jump, and be active. An outdoor catio and branches or a man made cat tree are ideal. They can grow pretty large, almost (but not quite) as big as their cousins the Maine Coons.
