Nebelung cat brred is
considered to be a semi-long haired cousin of the Russian Blue cat
breed.
NebelungHistory
Nebelung is a German word that means - creatures of the mist. In the early 1980s in America, a black domestic cat gave birth to two shorthaired females and one longhaired male. The father was an Angora mix. One of the shorthaired female kittens produced a litter of kittens that included a blue semi-longhaired male kitten. This kitten became the Nebelung's foundation cat. Appearance Barring difference between coat length, Nebelung is more or less simiar to Russian Blue in Appearance. Whereas the Russian Blue's coat is short and dense, the Nebelung's fur is medium-long, silky, and possesses a dense undercoat. The bright blue color is contrasted with silver-tipped guard hairs and therefore the coat catches the light, giving it a luminous, misty quality. Nebelung has an angular, modified wedge-shaped head consisting of seven flat planes. Their eyes are generally green colored. Kittens may have yellow eyes that deepen to green as the cats mature. Personality Nebelungs are mild, soft-spoken, and gentle. They are generally reserved around strangers, but make excellent, loving and playful companions to their owners. They are extremely intelligent but their behavior is highly predictable.
