Russian Blue

The Russian Blue is a cat breed that tends to come in colors varying from a light shale grey to a darker, opaque black. The lighter colored felines in this specific family tend to be more aggressive and territorial than their counterparts, but are both very intelligent and playful, also tending to be more shy around strangers. They develop close bonds with their human companions and are sought out as pets due to their personalities and coat.

Origin

The Russian Blue is a naturally occurring breed that may have originated in the port of Arkhangelsk, Russia. They are also sometimes called Archangel Blues. It is believed that sailors took Russian Blues from the Archangel Isles to Great Britain and Northern Europe in the 1860s. The first recorded appearance outside of Russia was in 1875 at the Crystal Palace in England, as the Archangel Cat. The Russian Blue competed in a class including all other blue cats until 1912, when it was given its own class.

The breed was developed mainly in England and Scandinavia until after World War II. Right after the war, a lack of numbers of Russian Blues led to cross breeding with the Siamese. Although Russian Blues were in America before the war, it was not until the post-war period that American breeders created the modern Russian Blue that is seen in the US today. This was done by combining the bloodlines of both the Scandinavian and British Russian Blues. The Siamese traits have now largely been bred out. The short hair and slate-gray/blue color is often seen in mixed-breed cats, which can have an impact on breeders and showers.
