      Play with the Siberian cat every day. Talk to the cat and play with it to keep it active. Try taking the cat for a walk in the garden or back yard for physical exercise. Because the ASPCA recommends keeping a cat indoors, if you do take the cat outside use a harness to keep the cat from running off.

      Groom the cat on a regular basis. Siberian cats have semi-long hair so you have to comb or brush it a few times a week. Grooming removes loose fur and helps reduce fur balls.
