SRI was founded in an effort to provide catteries tools and information necessary to improve the Siberian breed. Our primary focus is ongoing research and dissemination of information regarding genetic disease and feline allergens. Active SRI members are provided quarterly updates on research projects and access to additional services.
Membership in Siberian Research Inc (SRI) is restricted to Siberian breeders. Your cattery and website information will automatically be listed on our membership page. We do not provide unlisted memberships. The yearly fee of $45 provides funds for ongoing studies in genetic diseases of Siberians.
Siberian breeders face several unique challenges and decisions, many of which are covered in documentation available to members.

Establishing and prioritizing goals for a breeding program.
Finding breeders who offer support after you purchase a kitten.
Selecting lines best suited to your current breeding plans.
