Selkirk Rex

By
Image
The Selkirk Rex is distinct from all other Rex breeds. Unlike the Devon Rex and Cornish Rex, the hair is of normal length and not partly missing. There are longhair and shorthair varieties. It differs from the LaPerm in that the Selkirk Rex coat is plusher and thicker. While the LaPerm gene is a simple dominant, the Selkirk gene (Se) acts as an incomplete dominant; incompletely dominant, allele pairs produce three possible genotypes and phenotypes: heterozygous cats (Sese) may have a fuller coat that is preferred in the show ring, while homozygous cats (SeSe) may have a tighter curl and less coat volume. The Selkirk Rex originated in Montana, USA in 1987, with a litter born to a rescued cat. The only unusually coated kitten in the litter was ultimately placed with breeder, Jeri Newman, who named her Miss DiPesto (after a curly-haired character in the TV series Moonlighting played by Allyce Beasley). This foundation cat was bred to a black Persian male, producing three Selkirk Rex a

12 Memorable Facts About Cats the Musical What are facts about cats the musical? What book is the musical Cats based on? Did you know 10 interesting facts about cats? What is the musical cat the Musica about?   Decades after Andrew Lloyd Webber's famed musical opened on Broadway on October 7, 1982, this tongue-in-cheek idiom remains a part of our lexicon (thanks to Saturday Night Live). Although the feline extravaganza divided the critics, it won over audiences of all ages and became an industry juggernaut—one that single-handedly generated more than $3 billion for New York City's economy—and that was before it made a return to the Great White Way in 2016. Now, nearly six years after Andrew Lloyd Webber first teased that a live-action movie version of the musical might be happening, we've gotten our first glimpse at Tom Hooper's big-screen vision as the first trailer for the film, which opens in December, has dropped.

Warm Climate? No Problem! From their name alone, one could use a bit of reasoning to conclude that Snow Monkeys primarily hang out in colder climates. Buuuut, these little guys can survive warm weather as well. Native to Japan, Snow monkeys do tend to live in areas that have a lot of snow. In fact, of all the primates who aren’t human, they live in the coldest and northernmost climate in the world. So that big fluffy coat of fur that you see does comes in handy and it’s not just for show. They occupy three of the four main islands in Japan and can be found in warm forests as well.  One of the really cool things about Snow Monkeys is how smart they are, and how quickly they can adapt to new environments. For example, in 1972, a group of 150 Snow Monkeys were moved from Kyoto to a nature observatory in Texas. You don’t have to be a geologist to know how significantly different those places are.
