We were looking for a kitten to join our family but several members have allergies. After some research, we found The Alkie Siberians and we were delighted to welcome Holly into our home.

She is a beautiful cat with a wonderful temperament and nobody in the family has had any allergic reactions! Our daughters, Alice and Eleanor, are absolutely thrilled and they love playing with Holly – she is such a playful cat.

Alex and Jackie were brilliant throughout the process and they gave us so much useful information to help Holly settle in smoothly. Thank you so much!

We got Frank in 2025 after deciding that our first The Alkie Siberian, Beans, needed a friend. We are so blessed to have this special boy, who loves snuggles, napping on laps, playing, and venturing outside with us.

The way he has integrated himself into our home has been a real joy, highlighting the wonderful personalities of both Frank and Beans. They had no trouble getting along and now spend every day running and playing together. Jackie and Alex have been so supportive in helping us learn to be the best cat owners we can be, and we’re so happy to be part of The Alkie community!

Beans joined us in July 2023, and she has been an absolute blessing. Not only is she the softest, most beautiful cat, but her manners are impeccable and her abundantly goofy personality makes us laugh every single day.

Beans loves to play, whether it’s chasing her teaser toys around or sitting at the table participating in our board games. She is a true testament to the care and expertise that Jackie and her family put into raising her. It is so clear that she was well-loved as a baby, and we’re beyond thrilled to be her owners!

We got Sylvie from Alkie during the pandemic in early 2020. Despite the circumstances, Alkie was really easy to deal with and helped facilitate a meet and greet with Sylvie in a safe and comfortable setting. Sylvie is a wonderful cat with a very gentle temperament, she loves snacks and can even do a trick or two! We love her dearly and miss her whenever we’re not home. And since we always wanted two cats from the start, we reached out to Alkie and got on the waiting list for a boy.

Luca finally joined our family in early January 2024, and even though it’s early days and they’re still getting used to each other, I can foresee a close friendship will blossom between the two soon enough. Luca is an extremely affectionate boy. He yearns for a human’s touch, and purrs louder than a boiling kettle whenever you pet him! He’s a beautiful and big boy (nearly 4kg at 6 months), and a wonderful addition to the family! Thank you Alkie for bringing us these two wonderful furry additions to our family.

The Siberian cat has always been my favorite breed, and I was delighted to meet Jackie and her mother at a pet expo. They kindly introduced me to the competition cats, shared insights into Siberian cat characteristics, and offered tips on cat care. Following this encounter, I welcomed Hari from the Alkie Siberian Cattery, my second Siberian cat. Alex and Jackie were extremely friendly and communicative throughout. The cats at their cattery are raised in a loving environment, and Hari, who adores cuddling, quickly adapted to the new surroundings and got along well with my existing cat. Thanks to Alex and Jackie for their outstanding efforts.

Our daughter always wanted a cat. Finally, last year, we agreed to fulfill her wish. The only problem Daddy is quite allergic to cats! After a bit of research, we learned about the Siberian cat breed, and about The Alkie Siberian Cattery here in Hong Kong. Fast forward a few months, and we have happily welcomed LUNA into our home. Daddy is not allergic at all, and the whole family – Mama, Daddy and Daughter — are enjoying having LUNA as a part of our family. She is very even-tempered, gentle, playful, loves being groomed and stroked, and is the most beautiful cat we have ever seen! Thank you, Jackie and Alex!

It has been a great experience to bring Nahla into our family.

Alex was easy to communicate with from the start, and Jackie provided all the necessary information about caring for Siberians. The entire process of transferring the care of Nahla from them to me was done with much care and attention, including swift communication on what needed to be done from both sides.

Most importantly, Nahla is a super sweet natured and loving kitten. She is confident, trusting and very affectionate. It proves that she had come from a very loving environment, thank you Alex and Jackie!

When I first began my search for a kitten, my biggest concerns were the temperament of the kitten and how well I can care for it as a first time pet owner. Alex and Jackie has been nothing short of extraordinary in both these regards.

Dr. Dumb Dumb (my cat, yes, he bought his degree) was 6 months old when he arrived. Since he grew up in a loving environment with all his siblings and parents, he has already learnt the social skills needed to be the cuddly and playful feline that he is.

Alex and Jackie both clearly care for the kittens that they have passed onto our care. They are reliable and actively helped us with problems we have encountered and the preparations/ knowledge needed before and after arrival of Dr. Dumb Dumb. And here’s a photo of him.

I became a member of The Alkie Siberian family in 2020 when I brought home my first Siberian kitten. It remains the best decision I have ever made. Alex and Jackie are extremely communicative and so knowledgeable. They walked me through every single detail. Due to the amazing experience I had the first time, I had another boy this year.

My boys are beautiful, loving, adventurous, sweet tempered, playful and kid friendly. I would highly recommend The Alkie because time and care is put into these cats.
