Nebelung

The Nebelung is a very pretty yet sturdy cat, similar to the Russian Blue, with a firm, lithe and muscular body and neat head. Unlike the Russian Blue however, the Nebelung is a semi-long coated cat, with shorter fur over the body and a luxuriantly furred tail, tufted ears, thick ruff and profuse ‘knickers’.

Personality

Shy and aloof with strangers, and sensitive to noise and bustle, the Nebelung is very affectionate with family and well-known friends. They adore human company and also get on well with other cats, dogs and children. They love to play and remain playful well beyond kittenhood, in fact if owners keep playing, so will the Nebelung. They are a fabulous lap-cat, but can be a little demanding if they have determined it is cuddle time, and will follow owners from room to room, plonking themselves on laptops and paperwork or newspapers and books until their need is satisfied.
