The Cornish Rex: Lively and Unique Companions
Features and Facts
Appearance
Cornish Rex cats have a slender and elegant build with long, slender legs and a soft, wavy coat that lies close to the body. The coat consists of curly hairs that are often reminiscent of the appearance of lambswool. They have an elongated head with large, upright ears and expressive eyes.
Personality
Cornish Rex cats are known for their playful, energetic, and affectionate personality. They are often very social and enjoy interaction with their humans. Cornish Rex cats are intelligent and curious by nature, and may enjoy discovering and exploring new things. They are often friendly towards other pets and get along well with children.
Grooming
The Cornish Rex's coat generally requires minimal grooming. Occasional brushing with a soft brush helps to remove loose hair and keep the coat in good condition. Additionally, nails should be trimmed regularly, and ears should be checked for dirt.

Overall, Cornish Rex cats are healthy cats, but like all breeds, they may be susceptible to certain health problems, such as hereditary conditions like hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) and patellar luxation. Regular veterinary check-ups are important for their health.
Life Expectancy
Cornish Rex cats usually have a fairly long life expectancy, often between 12 and 15 years, sometimes longer with good care and a healthy lifestyle.
