Colorpoint Shorthair
The Colorpoint Shorthair was developed from the Siamese, with red or cream restricted to points (face, legs, ears, tail, and genitalia). Early crosses with domestic shorthairs, refined by concentrating Siamese genes with red, produced the final Colorpoint Shorthairs. Like many CFA breeds, it is a man-made breed. In the 1940s and 50s, breeders risked deciding the beautiful Siamese should come in more than traditional seal and the most common blue point.

Canadian Hairless
The Canadian Hairless, also called the Sphynx, is an extremely rare hairless genetic variant that appeared during the breeding of American or European domestic cats. Although it shares the skin pigment of domestic cats, its skin bears only a few hairs. With a wedge-shaped body, large ears, and a bulky frame, its head looks like Yoda's. The whole look makes it seem not cute but rather frightening compared with domestic cats.
Korat
The Korat cat, also called the Korat or Si-Sawat, originates from the Khorat Plateau in northwest Thailand and is an ancient breed. Introduced to the US in 1959 and recognized by American cat lovers in 1965, and by Britain 10 years later. Its coat, like the Russian Blue and Chartreux, is solid blue with no shading or pattern, with a silvery sheen, and it has a unique heart-shaped face.

The Silver Mosaic Chinchilla's scientific name is South American chinchilla, and because its appearance resembles the cartoon chinchilla in Hayao Miyazaki's film 'My Neighbor Totoro,' Hong Kong people renamed it 'Silver Mosaic Chinchilla.'
