About 50 years ago, a very unusual cat was born in Cornwall, England.

Kittens were born in a litter of 5 where one boy had a curly, cream coloured coat, large ears, long tail and a slender body.

This was the start of the breed. Anybody who knows the Cornish Rex will agree that they are the friendliest, happiest cats to have around.

They are sweet tempered, curious about everything, considered the clowns of the cat world and get on with children and all other animals.

Even though they look incredibly fragile, they are robust, healthy cats with huge appetites for food.

Once you have owned a Cornish Rex, you will never want another breed.
