Cornish Rex standard fr.o.m. 2006 - (ändringar fetmarkerade)
| General |
The Cornish Rex is distinguished by its slender and graceful appearance. It is surprisingly heavy due to its strong muscle tone. It is covered in characteristic wavy, soft coat and gives an overall appearance of being high on legs. |
