What Makes Russian Blue’s Perfect Kitties

Emerald green eyes, velvety blue-grey coats, and a whole lot of charisma — that’s the Russian Blue.

These kitties are shy at first, but once they’ve warmed up to you you can expect endless snuggles and heartwarming companionship. They’re one of the calmest, most chilled kitties you can get, and aren’t clingy —- so they won’t drive you mad!

Because of their endlessly sweet temper, the Russian Blue makes a furbulous family cat and gets on great with kids. They’re also so loyal, so you never need to worry about them ditching you for your neighbour.

While these feline friends are pawsome in all kinds of wonderful ways, they can be a little more prone to certain health problems because of their breed. As a Russian Blue pet parent, you should be aware of these key problems that can pop up:

  • Thyroid disorder
  • Kidney disease
  • Obesity
  • Diabetes
  • Bladder stones
  • Eye conditions


  • Being equipped with Russian Blue pet insurance is the best way to prepare for any of these breed-specific conditions. Browse and compare our Russian Blue cat insurance policies today at PetsOnMe.

    What’s Covered with Russian Blue Breed-Specific Insurance?

    That all depends on the level of coverage you pick. In general, you get covered for select injuries, third-party liability, cruciate ligament, prescribed medications, breed-specific health conditions, and specialised therapies.

    What Level of Cover Is Best for the Russian Blue Breed?

    Each and every feline is different and has its own set of health needs and conditions. The type of policy you pick for your Russian Blue fur baby is down to their requirements and your preferences.

    If you’ve got a low-maintenance, low-risk kitty, our Accidental Plan, the most basic level of cover at PetsOnMe, is your best bet. This accounts for a bunch of eligible accidental injury treatments, like fractured or broken bones and bites.

    If you want a balance of comprehensive cover and affordability, you’ll get your money’s worth with our Classic Plan. This gives the best of both worlds: accidental injury and breed-specific illness coverage.

    And, if your kitty needs the highest level of coverage, our Deluxe Plan has everything you need. It’s got a maximum annual benefit limit of $20,000, so you can rest assured you’re covered on a bunch of costly treatments.

    How Do I Prevent Health Issues for My Russian Blue Cat?

    A healthy diet, routine vet check-ups, up-to-date vaccinations, lots of playtime, and endless cuddles – that’s the recipe for a healthy and happy Russian Blue kitty. If you want to be extra precautious, you can treat your feline with breed-specific holistic therapies to help lower the risk of certain health problems.
