Selkirk Rex

The Selkirk Rex is often considered a large cat breed that manages to impress everyone with their luxurious and curly coat. What makes this cat breed so special, apart from their size? Well, the Selkirk Rex has a strong and loving personality, being very patient with other pets and children, which makes them a great companion for families with other animals and kids.

If you want to adopt this cat breed, you have to make sure that you give them enough attention and affection, because they are very affectionate creatures that need a lot of attention.

“This curly-coated cat is a spontaneous mutation originally found in a shelter [in] Montana,” says Keiger. “Gentle and loving, the Selkirk Rex gets along great with people and other pets,” Keiger added.

“Selkirk Rex owners are consistently stopped by people with anxious hands wanting to pet and feel this soft, plush pet,” CFA explains. “The fortunate humans are those who can take these live teddy cats home for cuddles and hug.”
