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 Tonkinese is a deliberate cross between the Siamese and the Burmese, first developed in the 1960s to blend the best of both breeds into one medium-sized, beautifully balanced cat. Weighing 6–12 pounds, the Tonkinese has a muscular, surprisingly heavy body for its size, a gently rounded wedge head, and stunning aqua-colored eyes — a hallmark of the breed's "mink" coat pattern. They also come in pointed (Siamese-style) and solid/sepia (Burmese-style) patterns in natural, champagne, blue, and platinum.
Tonkinese cats are the social butterflies of the cat world — outgoing, playful, and utterly devoted to their humans. They are less vocal than the Siamese but more active than the Burmese, striking a perfect balance. Known for their clown-like antics and love of games, they thrive in busy households with children, dogs, and other cats.
