Let us introduce you to a famous fluffy beauty Mia Karagandovna the Pallas's cat! She lives in Novosibirsk Zoo.

She's eight years old, born on April 7, 2016 in Novosibirsk Zoo to the family of Karaganda the Pallas's cat and Markiza the Pallas's cat.

She's a mysterious and tender lady of sorrow, an internet star, and the most famous Siberian manuless in the world. Mia is picky when it comes to choosing a husband and has a bit of a temper. During one of the mating seasons, her mate was the handsome George, but from the very first day, they didn't get along: Mia kicked the young fluff out of their house, and George had to live in a tree for a while. The zookeepers soon separated them.

In 2022, Mia gave birth to kittens for the first time, proving to be a wonderful, incredibly caring, and patient mom! However, it's still unknown exactly which of her three suitors — Zelenogorsk, Zhora, or Earl — was the father of the kittens. She truly is a mystery queen!

Mia was given her name in Novosibirsk Zoo where she was born. Read more about the names of Mia.
