Which cat breed is right for you?
The Cornish Rex originated in 1950 in Cornwall, England, when a curly-coated kitten named Kallibunker appeared in an otherwise normal litter on a farm. This small-to-medium breed weighs 5–10 pounds and has a distinctive greyhound-like body — arched back, tucked waist, and long, slender legs built for speed. Their coat is uniquely composed of only the soft, curly down layer — lacking the outer guard hairs and middle awn hairs that other cats possess — creating a washboard-like wave pattern.
Cornish Rex cats are energetic, acrobatic, and endlessly entertaining — they retain their kitten-like playfulness well into their senior years. They are extremely social, love to be held and handled, and will seek out the warmest lap or blanket in the house. They thrive with children and other active pets, and their clownish antics make them natural performers.

The Russian Blue is a naturally occurring breed believed to have originated in the port city of Arkhangelsk (Archangel) in northern Russia, arriving in Europe aboard trade ships in the 1860s. This medium-sized cat weighs 7–12 pounds and is renowned for its dense, plush double coat of uniform blue-gray with silver-tipped guard hairs that give it a luminous shimmer. Its vivid emerald-green eyes, wedge-shaped head, and enigmatic "Mona Lisa smile" complete an unmistakably elegant look.
Russian Blues are gentle, reserved cats that are intensely loyal to their families yet cautious around strangers. They are creatures of habit who thrive on routine — eating at the same time, playing in the same spots, and sleeping in their preferred perch. Once bonded, they are affectionate and playful, often fetching toys and entertaining themselves with quiet grace.
