Selkirk Rex

First from Wyoming, USA, cross-bred with Persians to develop its traits, it can be crossed with Persians, Exotic Shorthairs, British and American Shorthairs. Free of genetic diseases, it is a very healthy cat distinguished by its fully curly coat—even the whiskers curl.
Oriental Shorthair
The Oriental Shorthair is a distinct breed, unexpectedly produced by breeders while developing another cat. They wanted a pure-white Siamese, so crossed Siamese with pure-white cats, producing today's Oriental. Though born in 1962, it was recognized as a new breed in 1972. Its appearance is close to the Siamese but differs greatly in coat color.
Cornish Rex
The Cornish Rex, English name Cornish Rex, originates from England. Its ancestor is a non-purebred shorthair, dating to 1950, with a childlike, mischievous personality. The breeder mated the first kitten, Kallibunker, with its mother, producing more cats. This is the origin of the Cornish Rex breed.

Tonkinese
The Tonkinese, also known as the Vietnamese cat, is not from Vietnam but a purebred short-haired breed produced by crossing the Siamese with the Burmese, first appearing in North America in the 1930s. With pointed coloring softer than the Siamese and a short, silky coat like the Burmese, the Tonkinese is famously affectionate, active, and people-oriented.
Burmilla
The Burmilla, also called the Pommila cat, has the Latin name Burmilla. This breed was born in Britain in 1981 and successfully exhibited two years later, immediately drawing wide attention. In fact, the Burmilla's birth came from a beautiful union, an 'out-of-wedlock' kitten between a lilac Burmese and a silver Chinchilla Longhair.
