Siberian cat

Siberian cats are super affectionate and have playful personalities. These cats mature very slowly, both physically and emotionally. It can take the Siberian as long as five years to reach adulthood, which means they spend a significant portion of their life acting like kittens. These are native to Siberia, a region of Russia known for long, harsh winters. Their rugged origins are reflected in their long, weatherproof triple coat and strong bodies. These alert and solidly built cats are somewhat kittenish in personality. This breed is sweet-natured and loves to cuddle. As a natural breed, Siberian cats are hearty and healthy. The only congenital disease to be on the lookout for with these cats is HCM (hypertrophic cardiomyopathy). The most common of all heart diseases in cats, HCM is a thickening of the heart muscle that could lead to heart failure.
