A coloration unique to Siberians, “Bimetallic” has only recently been recognized by the CFA’s breed standard for Siberians:
“…a unique expression of the agouti gene that gives the appearance of a silver and gold combination with darker tipping (shaded) or tabby markings in all recognized patterns (shaded, tabby, bi-colors, pointed). All bimetallic cats have a white to off-white undercoat and appear primarily silver with distinct areas of pale gold. Tipping or tabby markings will range from black in the silver areas of the coat to rich brown within the golden areas.”
We are proud to co-own the CFA’s first Bimetallic Siberian Grand Champion:
Owners: Iris and Robert Zinck and Daniel and Rebecca Harling
