Siberians are large cats and the deep coat makes them seem even more impressive. They are powerful but graceful and agile jumpers. The personality is mellow and they are devoted to their owners, often greeting them at the door. Their voices are quiet and pleasant, full of trills and chirps.

The Siberian is a medium to large cat with an overall appearance of excellent physical condition, strength and power. The body has a look of circles and roundness. Siberians take up to five years to reach full maturity and females are considerably smaller than males.

This is a longhaired cat with a triple coat; with the hair on the shoulder blades and lower part of the chest thicker and slightly shorter. There should be an abundant ruff setting off the large head. The feet are big and rounded with toe tufts.

The head is a modified wedge of medium to large size with rounded contours and in good proportion to the body. The face has a sweet rounded expression. Ears are medium size with Lynx tipping allowed. The eyes are large and almost round in shape and wide set.
