First from Wyoming, USA, cross-bred with Persians to develop its traits, it can be crossed with Persians, Exotic Shorthairs, British and American Shorthairs.

Cornish Rex

Japanese Bobtail
The Japanese Bobtail, also known as the Lucky Cat (Maneki-neko), is very popular in Japan. Cat lovers, upon hearing 'lucky,' want one. It is a native Japanese breed with a history tracing back centuries. Bred in the US after introduction, it is said an American cat lover in Japan found a cat with a short rabbit-like tail and brought several back after WWII; these are the ancestors. The Japanese Bobtail sits with one front paw raised, said to represent good fortune.
Abyssinian
The Abyssinian, also called the rabbit cat, Ethiopian cat, or Abyssinian, has the English name Abyssinian and is now distributed around the world.

I am a boarding student and left my hamster with my parents. When I got home today I found my hamster suddenly like this—at first I thought its eyes were gone, but the eyes can still open a little and a cotton swab can’t wipe it off; runny diarrhea is stuck to its rear and its weight dropped a lot, visibly very thin and severe. How should I handle this?
Based on your description—eyes that will not open, increased discharge, diarrhea, and severe weight loss—your hamster may have a digestive disease, most seriously wet tail. This is often caused by poor care and an unclean environment that lets bacteria infect an immunocompromised hamster, and the disease can be fatal, so seek veterinary care promptly.
Dwarf Hotot
The Dwarf Hotot, also called the Dwarf Panda Rabbit, is a small, lively pet rabbit with an all-white coat and distinctive black eye markings. Easy to keep like other pet rabbits, it needs a secure cage, daily grooming, and unlimited hay.
