First discovered in the late 1980s, the breed of cat called the Selkirk Rex is a uniquely interesting type of cat. The breed first appeared in Montana from a feral cat that was pregnant with five kittens. When the kittens came out, one of them had a different type of hair than their mother. A breeder adopted this amazing kitten and the rest is history.

Although they are fairly new on the scene, people are beginning to fall in love with their adorable appearances. How can you tell if a cat is a Selkirk Rex? Their special curly, thick, and amazing coat of hair! When you see their coat in pictures, you’ll admit that it’s impressive. But petting and stroking one of these cats will prove to be even more amazing!

But why the unique title for this special breed? The breeder that adopted the curly haired kitten decided to name the new type of cat after her stepfather. This means that not only are cats of this breed unique but so is the name since it is the only type of cat to be named after a human!

After taking some time to breed these cats further, the International Cat Association finally recognized the Selkirk Rex as its own unique and special breed.

Often, they are lovingly described or referred to as ‘poodle cats’ due to the appearance of their hair. These cats are loving, silly, and friendly cats that make great additions to a family. What do you think about the Selkirk Rex breed? Would you ever adopt one of your own?
