Temperament
The Russian Blue is calm and quiet, chooses one or two favorite people, and stays wary of strangers. It prefers order: new people and rearranged furniture can upset it for a while. On the other hand, it loves to play and remembers routines well.
Living with a Russian Blue
It feels best in a calm home with a predictable schedule. It's important to have a hiding place where it can retreat from guests. A scratching post, shelves, and wand toys for hunting games are a good fit.
Grooming
The coat needs almost no care; a soft brush once a week is enough. Keep the litter box clean.
Health
We have not found separate data on hereditary diseases in the breed, but that is no guarantee of health. Watch the cat's weight and take it to the vet regularly.
