Not withstanding the fact that we have laughed, cried, loved, petted and played with these little creatures since 1983, which could make us a bit prejudiced... well I would venture to say that the most important element of living with a Cornish Rex is their assertive attitude. Assertive meaning that nothing seems to distract them from always wanting to be with us.
As an avid traveler I found it very necessary to have a pet who was forgiving of my travels. I knew a dog would be happy to see me if I was gone for days at a time but some of the cats in my life could have cared less. Not the Cornish Rex - they know my body language, they know how to get reactions from me and they still know what makes me tick!
I have had many cats in the past who loved to be with me but nothing prepared me for the Cornish Rex! They are by your side or waiting at the door or window for your appearance. If you are looking for a buddy you have found the right breed.
While showing our CFA BREED WINNER - GC,BW,RW MYKRO'S MAXINE we were invited to do a segment with the House & Garden Network. Although originally aired on YouTube a firm listed as U7Media has opted to block it in this country. I have copies though and am planning on making a DVD of it to distribute to our cornish rex family. In the interim.. just drop us a line and we'll send you photos of our latest family - an even better illustration.
