American Wirehair Cat

The American Wirehair cat, known for its wiry, dense, and coarse coat is a playful, yet affectionate cat. The American Wirehair cat was first discovered in 1966 after two barn cats produced a litter of cats with unusually wiry fur. Only one cat survived, Adam, and the pair of barn cats never had any more wiry litters.

Once taken in by Joan O’Shea, who originally thought the cat may be a Rex, it was discovered Adam was an entirely new breed after some of his furs were sent to a British cat genetics lab. Similar to the American Curl cat, the American Wirehair resulted from a dominate spontaneous gene mutation. Loving and in tune with their owner’s emotions, the American Wirehair is a unique cat with a favorable personality.

American Wirehair Cats have an overall height of 8”-10" (20-25 cm), body length of 11”-13” (28-33 cm), and weight between 8-15 lb (3.6-6.8 kg). American Wirehair Cats have a typical lifespan between 10-16 years.

American Curl Cat

The American Curl cat, known for its ears that curl back, is a slender, affectionate, gentle cat which can vary in size. Originating in California in the 1980s, the American Curl cat was first discovered when two stray kittens with curled ears appeared on a family’s doorstep. Unassuming about their ears, the family took the kitten in and bred it, thus passing on the dominate genetic mutation. It was only after Nancy Kiester acquired two kittens for their gentle demeanor that she realized it was a new breed entirely. Loved for their personality and appearance, the American Curl is a beloved breed.

American Curl Cats have an overall height of 9”-12” (23-30 cm), body length of 16”-21” (41-53 cm), and weight between 5-10 lb (2.3-4.5 kg). American Curl Cats have a typical lifespan between 12-16 years.

Javanese Cat

The Javanese cat, known for its long fur and devotion to its owner, is one breed in a series of designer Siamese cats. Other cat breeds in this series are the Balinese, Colorpoint Shorthair, Oriental Shorthair, and Oriental Longhair. The Javanese is most similar to the Colorpoint Shorthair; in fact, they are the same, except the Javanese has a long coat. It is a debate among breeders if it is worth it to maintain separate Balinese and Javanese breeds because they share most traits. The Javanese is talkative, responsive, and curious cat that loves the company of their owner.

Javanese Cats have an overall height of 9”-12” (23-30 cm), body length of 12”-16” (30-41 cm), and weight between 5-10 lb (2.3-4.5 kg). Javanese Cats have a typical lifespan between 10-15 years.
