Story
Please contact Jetta (Jetta.elliott@att.net) for more information about this pet.Two year old tortie point Siamese femaleScarlet is a rescue. She was feral when she arrived to the rescue. When she was spayed, they clipped one of her ear tips as normally feral cats are released back to the wild. Instead of releasing the sweet girl, I brought her home and tamed her. She is very sweet, very loving and looking for her forever home. She is currently in Harrison, Arkansas. Rescue pets are transported near your locations via the rescue network transport. Please do not inquire through Facebook, but rather send an email with your phone number to inquire.April 9, 2025, 4:15 pm

Cornish Rex fun facts

Fun Facts:

The moniker Cornish Rex was chosen because the founding breed was created in Cornwall and the coat resembled the AstREX rabbit's fur.

The Cornish Rex breed was established by outcrossing to several other breeds to promote genetic diversity, the health of the breed, and a variety of colors and patterns.

The gene mutation that causes the curly coat in Devon Rexes is different than that of the Cornish Rex. Devon Rexes have guard hairs and they shed more.
