Cattery’s History:

I fell in love with a Siberian breed in 2007 at the international cat show in Donetsk, Ukraine. I was amazed from the first sight with their natural “wild” look and their thick coat, muscular and strong body and the general ”round” aspect with full cheeks and harmonious head. I can surely say that this exquisite breed is the love of my life and my heart and soul belong to them.

Finally, in 2009, I acquired my first cat. This was amazing show quality Siberian cat of a very rare color Calico. I could not take my eyes of this fascinating creature. It was magical. From this moment on my life changed, forever. I studied long and had wanting to know everything I could about this unique breed. I attended many shows with my Margo.

Our first Siberian cat, named Margo Serenity, later became a winner of many many WCF shows and World Champion WCF. On her very first outing she won Best Kitten in a great class of all breed class! At just 1 year old she became Top Winning Siberian in 2011!

Margo had beautiful kittens including her daughter Barbariska of Barvinok, who formed our Cattery’s line.

In 2011 we had our second Barvinok litter where Margo Serenity and Veresk Onix Gloria gave us a beautiful litter of two boys and two girls. One of these girls was retained for showing and breeding namely Barbariska of Barvinok. A fabulous Siberian lady having all the qualities of a Perfect Type Siberian having a most beautiful broad head, muzzle, fantastic shape and deeply green eyes, ideal coat quality and bright and attractive color with her outgoing super personality, I could not have asked for more. Now we have in our cattery two daughters of Barbariska, one son, one granddaughter and one grandson.

Cattery’s name story:

Barvinok Siberians name was born in 2009. The name deriving from my childhood and my associations with my home region and my first Siberian cat and even with Ukrainian language.

I thought about it since I decided to devote my life to Siberian cats. I wanted the name to be sonorous and at the same time, fit into one word and have a connection with Ukraine. One of the interpretations of the Latin name of Barvinok flower (Vinca, in English PeriWINKLE) interprets it as going back to the Italian verb vincere – to win. In addition, Vinca Herbacea grows in the steppe and forest-steppe regions in eastern Ukraine, where I come from. Also, translated from Ukrainian, the word “BARVa” means “Color”, and since nature has painted Margo with such bright colors, and since I had huge ambitions about her show career, the name of the cattery stuck by itself.

Why choose a Barvinok Siberian

We consider our Cattery to breed responsibly. Our aim is to breed for health, temperament, beauty and type. All Barvinok Siberian Kittens come from health tested parents with careful genetics screening. The cats are bred indoors and house raised. Our cats and kittens are fed with a super premium food which ensures optimal growth and all preventative health care.

Every Barvinok Siberian Kitten receives lots of love and will seduce you, as much by its endearing and affectionate behavior as by its legendary beauty. If you are looking for a high quality Siberian Kitten, Barvinok Cattery is definitely the right choice for you.

We are a registered cattery with WCF. All Barvinok Siberian Kittens are registered even if pets to prove they are 100% pedigree as without this you could be getting a fake Siberian.

All of our Siberians have the best lines with famous relatives and ancestors. Every kitten is well socialized before going to a new home at 16-18 weeks of age. Kittens will be placed fully vaccinated with the highest quality vaccines and after successful quarantine with a 5-generations official pedigree and ownership certificate. There will be also a contract to sign. Kittens not for breeding will be neutered before leaving our house.

Why barvinok?

We breed in order to constantly improve the type of this wonderful and unique natural breed, as well as to preserve the unique character and temperament of Siberians. For many years of our work, we have managed to fix the stable type of traditional Siberian cat in combination with a very correct Siberian coat and fabulous show temperament, and at the same time keep the lines healthy, which is a rarity nowadays.

One unique feature of our breeding program is that some our breeding cats live with our friends, who love and care of our cats so cats live in their family and not together.

Barvinok Is Offering You…

All of our breeding Siberian Cats undergo a series of health tests to screen for various possible hereditary diseases, including HCM (heart) by a specialized cardiologist, and PKD (kidneys). These measures help us to understand we only breed healthy cats. Our cats are selectively bred with careful genetics MyCatDNA screening. They are also tested for Felv and FIV (blood tests).

To succeed in producing the most beautiful Siberian Kittens, we have the most beautiful cats possible. Please take your time and just have a look at our Breeding Cats  and our Offspring . We work very hard and select only exceptional Siberian Cats which meet all the parameters such as: great health, great type, fantastic personality and show temperament.

The temperament of the Siberian Kitten is the most important, because it will determine your bond and love for your kitten. For a Siberian Cat to be kind and affectionate, the cat must have been socialized and cuddled from an early age. The first months at the cattery are very important. Barvinok Siberian Kittens get a lot of love and attention throughout the day, that is why they are wonderfully socialized. And since the temperament is often hereditary, we select for our breeding program with the best possible personality and show temperament.

Most importantly, we believe in creating the true Siberians. Of course, you are here because you are looking for a Siberian Kitten. And of course, there are hundreds of other breeders and catteries. But that is why we do what we do that sets us apart.

For 13 years, we have sought and dreamed to make sure each and every cat which was born at Barvinok, exceeds all of your expectations. Each cat must be one that we would want for our personal pet. We also desire to exceed your expectations in every step of the process in finding your new family member. After all, this is a 15+ year decision, and not one to be taken lightly. And we want you to be a proud Cat Parent who will be always grateful to our hard work, love and commitment to this breed.
