Watch out for any colored flags, triangular or wavy lines, and patches that move all over the cat's body. [substeps] Siberian cats are highly sanitary, but they are rarely sprayed, soled, cashed, or smeared. The hair may gradually curl into a long, heavy bristle coat, especially when you're petting the cat. It's only a phase, though, so the fur will then start to look matted and coarse. In their native russia, these many layers help protect siberian cats from the intense cold. The coats of siberian cats can come in all colors. The awn hairs normally move very slowly and are packed into crevices. But they are still thick enough to be kicked up onto a cat's head.
