Oh Nakita! There isn't words for your wonderful photo shoot!! You are as always the most beautiful little girl that I have ever seen......... You should have been in Peoples Most Beautiful Kitties!!!!!!!! I LOVE THE PICTURES!!

Just out of curiosity if you don't mind where did you find her???? I have looked on line at this breed type and I still haven't seen one of the kitties that as spellbounding as her....... Was she a rescue or did you find her through a breeder???? Do you happen to have kitten pictures of her??? I am amazed by her so because my little Paris girls mommie was a russian blue... And I think this will be one of the next breeds I will look into getting.

Are their characteristics as in temperment and dispostion a lot like a siamese or are they much more active or less active????

She is wonderful little girl!

Oh Nakita, you are one spectacular beauty. Your eyes are the most beautiful I've ever seen!

You would think your hoomans would provide you with a flat screen, considering your star status. Think they'll go for a laptop??

PS, I'm having some premium catnip from my "source" in Michigan sent to me. I'll be sure to send some along for the holidays. Just PM me with your address.

May I have your autograph please???

It all started when we were moving into a house and I knew I wanted a cat to complete the home.

I had been 'catless' for quite awhile because of school and constant moving but I knew I needed a cat as soon as I settled down.

Rob, on the other hand, was not very fond of cats. He actually didn't have any experience with them and saw them as being an additional expense, more food bills, furballs etc.

We were searching the internet one day and Rob came across the Russian Blue breed profile. He was in love.

So, if he was in love with a CAT, I was going to get that cat...it was my chance.

As soon as Nakita came home, she stole Rob's heart. Well, she stole mine too, but any cat would easily do that! We spent a good 6 months speaking with breeders and finally Nakita came home.

In one word, she's the most graceful and sleek cat I have ever owned. She will jump on a ledge and never knock anything over. She walks almost everywhere yet nothing has ever been broken. Plus, she is the most easily trained cat (or am I the most easily trained owner).

Russian Blues are usually more reserved, quiet but curious. Nakita though is not as reserved as some Russian Blues, curiousity always gets her and she loves attention! She's also only pet quality (in breeding terms). Among other things, her ears are not the right size or location, her fur not as thick but I find her absolutely purrfect. As others have said, she really does have a unique look to her that I haven't seen in other cats of her breed. Actually, I like her look better than the purebreds I have seen at show.

I'm not sure if you know, but Russian Blues at one point were bred with Siamese to strengthen the line. And when Nakita wants something, I'm sure I can hear the 'Siamese' in the meow! I grew up with a Siamese cat as a child, so Nakita is a good combo of what Rob and I wanted in a cat.

Also, the breed is very devoted to their human owners. She ownes both Rob and I equally.

I'll see if I can pull up some Nakita kitten pictures for you.
