Summary
About Cornish Rex
Cornish Rex cats are slender, fine‑boned, and elegant, with large ears and a distinctive egg‑shaped head. Their short, wavy, velvet‑soft coat needs gentle care and warmth. Extremely active, playful, affectionate, and people focused, they crave interaction, mental stimulation, and indoor living.
About Snowshoe
The Snowshoe is a rare, medium-sized, blue-eyed cat with a sleek pointed coat, white paws, and an inverted white facial “V.” Athletic, intelligent, and vocal yet soft-spoken, it thrives on human interaction, enjoys training and active play, and is generally healthy with good care.
