Temperament
Nebelungs are quiet, intelligent, and form deep bonds with their people. They may be shy at first, especially around strangers, but once they trust you, they become affectionate and devoted companions. They prefer predictable routines and peaceful environments, making them ideal for calm households.
Grooming and Care
The Nebelung’s soft, semi-long coat requires brushing a few times a week to prevent matting and control shedding. This breed benefits from a quiet space of their own, such as a cozy perch or hiding spot, and enjoys gentle play and interactive toys. Their sensitive nature means they do best in low-stress homes.
History and Origin
Developed in the 1980s in the United States, the Nebelung is a modern breed created from a pair of domestic cats that carried the recessive longhair gene. The name “Nebelung” comes from the German word Nebel, meaning mist or fog—a nod to the breed’s shimmering coat. Though rare, they have gained a loyal following.
