Cornish Rex
In 1950, a curly-coated, cream-colored kitten was born in a litter of otherwise normal barn cats in Cornwall, England. The owner of the litter assumed the
coat was the result of a spontaneous mutation and worked to develop a breed with the characteristic coat. "Rex" is a genetic term that refers to a lack of
guard hairs, leaving only the soft, curly undercoat.
