Pictures of Cornish Rex
Wavy Coated Cats

The pictures of Cornish Rex cats below showcase images of the most beautiful rex-coated cats.

These domestic cats are characterized by their unusual wavy coats and large eyes and ears.

Cornish Rex should not be confused with the Devon Rex cat which also has a curly coat and also originated in the United Kingdom.
