If you wish to get yourself a very special cat, you could consider getting a Russian Blue. This cat breed is an excellent companion for your family, because it’s playful even at older ages, so it would make a very nice entertainment if you want to feel good and forget your worries and day to day problems.

If you live in Europe, you’d want to search and see what catteries that offer this breed of cats are available in your area. You don’t have to look necessarily in your country only, because you may find some better deals in countries where prices are lower. Transportation shouldn’t be a problem, as there are companies that specialize in pets transportation, they have suitable vehicles and professional staff to care for the little fellows during their travel.

Before you buy Russian Blue kittens, or any other breed of cats, here’s what you need to know:

• If you can, try to contact breeders directly. Most of them would let you see the cats in the cattery, they’d give you the kitten’s pedigree, the international passport and all other documents required for you to travel with your cat. If you buy from intermediaries, some of them won’t provide you the pedigree, so you won’t be sure if your cat is a pure breed or not.
• No breeder would give you a kitten of an age that’s smaller than 3 months, because they aren’t weaned yet.
• The basic welcome kit should be bought before you bring the new cat home. You’ll need cat food, dishes, toys, a scratching post, a litter tray and of course the litter to fill it with. Some breeders will advise you to buy some disinfectant solution and use it all over the place in your home before the kitty arrives.
