I just wanted to write a note about how blessed my family is to have the precious ball of fur in our family. Freya is the sweetest cat I have ever met (and beautiful to boot!) she settled right down in our home, and loves her big sister Khaleesi. Freya came to us so well taken care of and with so much information about her and her parents! Michelle was so easy to work with and you can tell she loves her pets! They have the personality to reflect that they are happy where they came from! Once again, thank you for this little treasure you gave us.

My husband and I discovered Forest*Star Siberians at a CFA show in October of 2010. I have interacted with Michelle in person several times over the course of a year and a half, and found our exchanges to be both friendly and professional. Even though we didn’t plan to adopt right away, Michelle took note of what we were looking for and kept me in the loop. She never pushed a sale! and truely treated this as a hobby, not a money-making venture. No inbreeding here! Each time, both in her home and at shows, the cats have been healthy, happy and well balanced.  I would definitely trust the Nelsons to be kind and treat their cats as part of the family. This is a really nice cattery, complete with good people and beautiful show-quality cats.

“Bandit/aka Austyn is everything you read about Siberians: very intelligent, playful, loving, and active. We have had him since he was six months old and he very quickly became a member of our family. Getting him through Forest*Star was an easy experience. He came complete with care package of food, and Siberian Idols has answered any questions we have had.

My daughters and I loved visiting Michelles’s home and seeing all her sweet cats.  We were waiting for our kitten to get old enough to come home with us and had the opportunity to see him on numerous occasions as we impatiently waited.  What struck me immediately upon entering their home was the warmth and family affair atmosphere of raising the cats. I would highly recommend Michelle to anyone interested in a very well cared for kitten!

They all roamed freely around the house and were constantly cuddled and played with by her grandchildren, children and husband.  It was hard for them to let Clyde go and we have continued contact with Michelle regarding Clyde and how he is doing.

My husband has moderate cat allergies and is a self-proclaimed dog-person, so I didn’t even dream that we may be able to enjoy having a cat in the house. Surprisingly though, after two whole hours in a house with intact adult cats, he had little to no adverse reaction. This makes us believe that, in our particular case, having one or two SIBERIANS is absolutely feasible. I just love that Michelle’s kittens are very gentle and very respectful with their claws during jumping and playtime – a testament to both the breed and the breeder.

We received Grace at the airport 3 days ago.
We were very concerned about the flight, but everything worked just
fine , Thanks to Siberians idols. As soon as we saw Grace we knew
that she was special. Not only absolutely beautiful but such a sweet
personality. She sat on my lap for the long 2hr drive, she wanted to
be petted, and by time we got home she was sleeping right on my lap.
We were already friends. Thanks Idol Siberians, it’s so
exciting to have a new family member.

What can I say, I’ve been a cat person my entire life and I’ve never met a cat that I didn’t fall in love.  But Andruy is special.  Some of his best qualities:

He is playful.  He has a great imagination and can turn anything into a toy.  His favorite game is to play hocky under the bathroom door.  He will push a bottle cap under the door and wait for one of his humans to push it back.  He’ll play this for four or five minutes — sometimes at a slow pace, sometimes at a rapid pace.  If you don’t send the cap back under he’ll stick his paw under the door and reach around.
