More information:

The 12th june 2000, my friend at work, Vera Brännström-Marklin-Kraftsova and I went to
St.Petersburg and Moscow, for to buy the 10 first Siberian cats to Sweden. With the many strict
laws for import from a so called third country to prevent spreading of diseases such as rabies,
we set up, with allowance from The ministry of Agriculture, a private quarantaine here at home.
After 4 months we split up these, from Russia directimported 2 males and 8 females Siberian cats,
between us.

Allergy: It has shown that many allergic people can have these cats (unfortunately not all).

For once I could cuddle as much as I wanted with a cat without even begin to sneeze and dry tears. I can honestly say that I don't get any allergic symptoms. -But it feels strange to be able to cuddle a cat. I have always loved cats and will always do so. But unusual it feels
and great fun! . x hug x Ann/Älvsbyn

Catvisit and allergy 21/10 2001. I feel a lighter catch of cold that I'd like to believe comesfrom another cat. If I had met other cats, housecats I would have become really ill.

Have never in 25 years beenn able to hold or cuddle a cat, but now it's possible, it's amazing.
We are eagerly waiting for our Boris who will come to us by new year. Thanks for anotherpleasant visit. / Lars Andersson with family, Bureå

Anders Eriksson from Sundsvall. Nice cats and people. Felt "something little" from the start,
but then I didn't feel any allergic symptoms. I met adult and young cats, females and males.
Have hayfever, pollenallergy and I'm allergic to furanimals.

18/11 2001 We have now visited our little kitty Zoya who's so pretty. We look forward to the
new year weekend when we can come and get her. Sam who has had lifelong catallergy can now play
and cuddle Siberian cats. / Monika and Sam Ahlenius, Skellefteå

Hello! Have now tested both lifting and cuddling with both the kittens and the adult females.
Strangely I don't feel any allergic symptoms, if it would have been ordinary cats I would have
been really ill a long time ago. Feels great! /Mattias Stahre, Luleå
