Home / About us

Passion, purpose, excellence & family.

Established in 2019, Abrielle Cattery – House of Abrielle – is a family-oriented Siberian and Neva Masquerade cattery, founded on a shared love of animals and a commitment to ethical, responsible breeding.

Our story

It started with an allergy – and a very special breed.

Ahmed grew up in a farm-style home surrounded by animals – from cattle to birds – which created a deep love and respect for animals, and an understanding of the responsibility that comes with caring for them.

Ateeyah always had a special love for cats, but severe allergies and asthma made owning one challenging. Everything changed when we discovered the Siberian, a breed known for sometimes producing lower levels of the Fel d 1 allergen.

"From that love, Abrielle Cattery was born in 2019."
More than cats

They are family.

🏡

Raised at home

Our kittens are born and raised in a loving home, surrounded by everyday family life. We're personally involved in their socialisation, grooming and care.

🤝

Lifelong support

Our responsibility doesn't end when a kitten leaves. We guide our owners with settling in, nutrition, grooming, development and showing.

🩷

Lifelong relationships

Breeding is about much more than beautiful kittens – it's about lasting bonds between our cats, their families and ourselves.

Our commitment

Preserving the Siberian for future generations.

Our breeding programme focuses on the qualities we value most: health, temperament, structure, breed type, beauty and character. Every breeding decision is carefully considered, with both the individual cats and the future of our programme in mind.

Our goal is not simply to produce kittens, but to contribute positively to the Siberian breed.

Beyond breeding

Judges, students, lifelong learners.

Ahmed is a qualified judge for Chinchilla Longhair, Exotic and Persian breeds, and continues to expand his judging portfolio. Ateeyah is pursuing her studies in feline breed standards, judging and feline behaviour.

We believe breeding, exhibiting, judging and education complement one another – each helps us better understand the cats entrusted to us.
