What Russian Blues are like to live with
The Governing Council of the Cat Fancy (GCCF), which registers pedigree cats in the UK, describes the Russian as "playful & intelligent". It says the breed can be reserved with strangers until it has sized them up, which people sometimes read as shyness or aloofness, and is "extremely affectionate" once it has decided you are worthy of its attention.

Russian Blues in Brighton and Hove: your questions
Tap a question to expand
How many rescue Russian Blues are available for adoption in Brighton and Hove?
As of 7 November 2026, no Russian Blues are listed for adoption in and around Brighton and Hove on LocalPetFinder. Rescues add animals all the time, so this page fills as they list them.
Are Russian Blue cats always blue?
No. Blue is the best known colour, but the GCCF also recognises the Russian in white and black. A grey cat is not necessarily a Russian Blue, so check how the rescue describes the cat.
Can a Russian Blue be an indoor cat?
Often, yes. The GCCF says the Russian tends to be home-loving and should not suffer from being kept in, provided there is plenty of play with its owner. Cats Protection adds that a cat used to going outside can find the change stressful, so ask the rescue how this cat has lived.
How much does it cost to adopt a Russian Blue in Brighton and Hove?
Each rescue sets its own adoption fee. Cats Protection says you can expect to pay £80 to £120 on average for an adult cat and £100 to £120 for a kitten, varying between its branches, and Blue Cross fees start from £150 for cats aged 4 months to 7 years. The fee usually covers neutering, microchipping and first vaccinations, and each rescue confirms its own fee.
Are there Russian Blue kittens for sale in Brighton and Hove?
No. We don't list animals for sale. Every Russian Blue on this page is with a rescue or rehoming centre. Rescues rehome animals rather than selling them, usually for an adoption fee: for example, Cats Protection says £80 to £120 on average for an adult cat and £100 to £120 for a kitten. The fee usually goes towards vet work already done, such as neutering, microchipping and first vaccinations. If you searched "russian blue kittens for sale Brighton and Hove", the Russian Blues here are the rescue route: you apply to the rescue and pay its adoption fee, not a sale price. In England, Lucy's Law has meant since 6 April 2020 that kittens under six months can't be sold by a third party such as a pet shop or dealer: you buy direct from the breeder or adopt from a rehoming centre.
Can I get a free Russian Blue to a good home in Brighton and Hove, or one under £100?
Usually not. UK rescues normally ask for an adoption fee, which pays towards neutering, microchipping and vaccinations. At the large cat charities, fees for one cat are under £200: Cats Protection says £80 to £120 on average for an adult cat and £100 to £120 for a kitten, and Blue Cross fees start from £150 for cats aged 4 months to 7 years. An animal offered "free to a good home" is usually a private advert rather than a rescue. In England, cats must be microchipped before they are 20 weeks old, so ask to see the microchip details.
