American Cornish Rex

The fantastic photographs of the Cornish Rex cat that you can see on this page are of the American Cornish Rex breed. If you don't want to go to that page here is one of the photographs:

Cornish Rex bred in America and photographed by Helmi Flick published here with her express permission.

If you go to the Cornish Rex page of the GCCF (Governing Council of the Cat Fancy - UK) website and see the Cornish Rex cat you can see the difference with the Cornish Rex cat on this page: Cornish Rex cat (these show photographs of American breed cats). The American Cornish Rex has been selectively bred with the German Rex, the Oriental and the Cornish Rex. The British Cornish Rex looks less rangy, less fragile (wrong word?) and the face a little more average looking (less long and less thin). The cat, then, is generally less delicate looking than the American Cornish Rex, which as you can see from the photographs looks very slender and seems delicate (but probably isn't) and leggy.
