Rex takes two to three years to reach maturity.

The degree of ear curl can vary from 90 to 180 degrees, or bachelor's degree show's third most-favored-curl. Should not be curled ears, touch back of the head, but it led to disqualification, and no ears, lack of firm cartilage, its height from the base to at least one-third.

History American Curl Cat Breed?

While some new cat species have a difficult time, accepted cat, curled purred to the judges and the United States in a surprisingly short time the cat lover's heart, his way. This variety originated in June 1981 in the domestic cat population as a spontaneous gene mutation. By 1986, its recognized as the two largest cat registration.

Two ears of a cat curled arrived in 1981, cat lover Grace Ruga in Lakewood, California's doorstep. To arrive soon after disappeared. On the other hand, a long-haired black cat, Ruga named Shulamith (a Hebrew word meaning "black, but comely") on and stay in December 1981 gave birth to a litter. There are two same kittens curled back ears.

Ruga Shulamith kitten to her sister, Esther Brimlow. Nancy Kiester, the former Australian Shepherd breeder, see the cat, and delivery Brimlow house, and fell in love with its unique ears and gentle temperament. She obtained from Brimlow two curly kittens. After reading a Scottish Fold cat breed on the article also pointed out its unique ears, it occurred to her, this maybe a new species.

Kiester contacted the Rugas and together they exhibited Shulamith and Kiester's two kittens at a show in Palm Springs, California, in October 1983. Later they met with a cat judge who bred Scottish Folds, who confirmed that the Curls were unknown in the cat fancy.

In 1986 TICA granted the Curl Championship status. Later the same year, CFF accepted the breed for experimental status and the CFA accepted the Curl for registration. In February 1991 the CFA granted the breed Provisional status. All of the associations now recognize the Curl.

Since this is a breed with a fairly small gene pool, to insure sufficient genetic diversity, out-crossing to non-pedigreed domestic cats will continue until January 1, 2010. However, this also means that conformation and personality can vary greatly from bloodline to bloodline, depending upon the cats used in the breeding program.
