Meet Luna & Maxim, Our Russian Blue Parent Cats

Meet Luna and Maxim — the parents behind every Archangel Silver litter in Austin, Texas

Meet the Parents Behind Our Kittens

We run a small program — just one breeding pair at a time. Luna is our queen and Maxim is our stud. Both carry champion titled lineage, both have passed full genetic and infectious disease screening, and both live in our Austin home as pets first and breeders second.

Keeping our program small gives us time for daily handling, thoughtful family matching, and continued support. We plan one or two litters a year and give our cats time to rest between litters.

Luna — Our Queen

Luna is the mother of every Archangel Silver litter. She is a champion titled Russian Blue with a quiet, patient temperament and is an attentive mother — kittens stay close to her until they're ready for new homes.

Luna

Champion Titled Russian Blue Queen

Coat

Dense, even silver blue double coat — the kind of plush, slightly springy texture the breed standard calls for.

Eyes

Bright green eyes are one of Luna's striking features. Kitten eye color develops as they mature, and individual timing varies.

Temperament

Calm and patient. She lets her kittens climb on her, settles quickly when handled, and is good around new people.

Pedigree

Champion titled lineage with full pedigree documentation. We're happy to share her paperwork with serious inquiries.

Health Screening

Cleared for HCM and PKD, FeLV/FIV negative, current on vaccines and annual vet exams.

Maxim — Our King

Maxim is the father of every litter at Archangel Silver. He's a champion titled Russian Blue with a confident, easygoing personality and a coat that has the dense, silver tipped look the breed is known for.

Coat

Solid silver blue with the silver tipped guard hairs that give Russian Blues their signature shimmer in sunlight.

Eyes

Maxim has deep green eyes. We can share photos and discuss the individual characteristics of each kitten.

Build

Medium frame, fine boned, muscular — within the size range the breed standard describes (10–12 lbs).

Temperament

Confident with people he knows, polite with strangers, no aggression. He's the cat that comes to greet you at the door.

Pedigree

Multi generation champion lineage, fully documented. Paperwork available on request.

Health Screening

Cleared for HCM and PKD, FeLV/FIV negative, current on vaccines and annual vet exams.

Our Commitment to Health

Health screening and regular veterinary care are important parts of our breeding program. They help inform our breeding decisions, but cannot guarantee that a cat will never develop a health condition. Contact us to discuss the records available for review.

How We Run the Program

Small, careful, and on purpose

Champion Bloodlines

Our queens and studs come from champion bloodlines with documented pedigrees spanning multiple generations.

Home Raised

All our breeding cats live in our Austin home as beloved family members, not in cages or kennels.

Day to Day Care

Consistent feeding, fresh water, regular veterinary care, and time together are part of everyday life in our home.

How We Schedule Litters

Luna has at most two litters a year and gets a full rest cycle between pregnancies. We don't push her — if a cycle doesn't take, we wait. Most years we have two litters total, sometimes one.

That pace keeps the cats healthy and gives every kitten enough lap time, handling, and vet attention before they go home at 13 weeks.
