Ch. Iz Ermitage Clava Magadanovna

 

born April 15th 1999
Sleeping beauty.

Clava with 4 months of age. She came to live with us, looking like the perfect Norwegian Forest Cat. As she started to grow, she appeared to be the most beautiful Siberian Cat I have seen in a long time!!!! When she was a kitten, she often stood before me, asking me to pick her up. She would hug me with her soft paws and nose around in my face and hair.
Since then she has come a long way. Clava has become very sturdy. She's a big boned cat, well build with great muscles and all the other features she needs for a really good Siberian!
Clowning around.....

This cat must have a well developed sense of humor! I often find her in the most peculiar places and poses. And sometimes she's just lying there being pretty....

 
She doesn't like it very much to go to cat shows, but she gets nominated BIS "on a regular base". She is invited to come to the Asian part of Russia for her World title, as well as her brothers Nico and Colja!!! Colja can be seen in the Iz Ermitage homepage, see links.
Now enjoy a few pictures of this lovely lady!!!
 

She is about a year  old in these photographs.

Clava is corresponding with Gordi. He is her best friend, though living far away: in Finland! Gordi is a blue tabby mackerel stud, who has his own website for Siberian Cats. >
