THE RACE

First Cornish rex was born in 1950, in Cornwall (England).  Kallibunker, which presented particularities of our current cornish rex, was coupled with his mother to create new descendants, which was exported in the USA, where the race developped.

His name comes from Cornwall and from his curly fur, just like the rex, a rabbit.

- small

- thin

- long and thin tail, sometimes without fur on her base

- triangular face

- big ears, high on the head

- great eyes, very expressive

- curly and sweet fur

"Loves to speak", her mewing can be translated : the mewing of hungry cornish , the miaowing of cornish who wants to get out, the caterwauling of hangry cornish …

Very alive, loves plaing, climbing

Loves contacts, caressing. Doesn't love staying alone. 

However it's a cat... She does what she wants.

Sensitive to the cold, so she sleeps under the duvet.

Glue.

Loves water. Loves getting out.

Glutton.

Loves hunting
