 SELKIRK REX KITTENS FOR SALE



The Selkirk Rex kittens for sale is one of the only four cat breeds with wavy fur, the others being the Cornish Rex, Devon Rex, and LaPerm. Sweet, loyal, and terribly cute, the Selkirk Rex is a great fit for any person, including those that consider themselves “dog people.”


The Selkirk is a recent breed, tracing its roots back to 1987 when a Montana breeder, Jeri Newman, spotted a curly-haired kitten at a shelter and adopted it. She then bred the curly kitty with a Persian male, producing a litter consisting of three straight-haired kittens and three curly-haired ones.


This indicated that the curly hair gene is autosomal dominant, meaning that one parent must possess it for some of their offspring to express it.


The International Cat Association (TICA) was the first to accept the Selkirk Rex as a distinct breed in 1992. The American Cat Fanciers’ Association (ACFA) officially accepted it in 1998.


The Selkirk Rex for sale is a muscular, medium-sized cat that can weigh up to 16 pounds, but the females are smaller. This cat has a round head, adorable round eyes, and comes in a wide variety of colors and patterns. Additionally, their curly coats can be either short or long.


A common misconception is that the Selkirk Rex’s coat is hypoallergenic due to its texture. However, that is not true. Allergies result from dander and not a particular coat type.


This breed is a good fit for people who will give them attention, as their personality and coat type requires a lot of care.

The British Shorthair is easy to groom and is a playful but no-nonsense cat. It tends to be reserved, in fact typically British by nature, but once it becomes a part of the family it is a devoted cat and undemanding companion. A British Shorthairs’ devotion and empathic bond to it’s family are strong friendships traits most people don’t expect from a cat. Spirited but gentle, intelligent not weak, the British Shorthair is the ultimate companion in the human-feline experience. Just like a teddy bear, a British Shorthairs round and velvet-plush appearance makes resistance to hugging and cuddling difficult. They show affection by offering head bumps and body rubs in loving abandon. Throwing their weight into their embrace they are impossible to ignore; a true com...

 Emory Burmese kittens For Sale History & Origins Burmese cats originate from Burma, Thailand and Malaya where they are well documented. Although they have been imported into many countries, along with their close cousins the Siamese, as early as the mid 1800s, it was the striking appearance of the blue-eyed Siamese that was preferred, and the little brown cat with the yellow eyes gradually disappeared. In 1930 Dr Joseph Thompson of San Francisco, California, imported a brown female, whom he called Wong Mau. Dr Thompson felt that Wong Mau was a distinct breed of cat and decided to embark on a breeding programme to prove this. Wong Mau was mated to the nearest suitable stud – an imported Siamese called Tai Mau. The kittens produced were either seal point Siamese, like their sire, or little brown cats like Wong Mau. But when Wong Mau was mated to her son, Yen Yen Mau, there was a third, much darker, type of kitten produced. Dr Thompson called this dark coated cat a Burmese. Rece...
