Every breeder listed below raises Russian Blue kittens under the banner of Responsible Pet Breeders Australia (RPBA). They’ve done more than pay lip service — each breeder must honour RPBA’s Code of Ethics and meet their state’s animal welfare rules without cutting corners or dodging scrutiny.
Sourcing a Russian Blue from a breeder who upholds these values isn’t just a smart move — it’s a mark of care. Ethical Russian Blue breeders don’t roll the dice when it comes to pairings. They handpick healthy, stable bloodlines and spend the early weeks of a kitten’s life crafting a calm, consistent environment. The result? Cats that carry calm temperaments, resilient health, and fewer inherited issues that tend to show up when breeding gets sloppy.
These breeders don’t flood the market or chase profit at the expense of animal wellbeing. They raise kittens to thrive — not just survive — and steer clear of the high-volume churn of kitten mills. When you choose a breeder listed with RPBA, you’re not just bringing home a blue-coated beauty. You’re also backing ethical breeding choices and better futures for companion animals.

Russian Blue breeders who follow our Code don’t guess — they plan. They take their cues from experience, science, and years of working hands-on with animals. The kittens they raise aren’t afterthoughts or side hustles. They’re the result of thoughtful pairing, proper socialisation, and a deep respect for feline welfare.
When you pick a kitten from one of these breeders, you’re stacking the odds in your favour — for health, for behaviour, for long-term companionship. You’re also saying no to mass-produced litters and yes to ethical, considered care.
