A Brief Description:
The Cornish Rex presents an initial appearance of being fragile, but nothing could be further from the truth. They are hardy and long lived, but are strictly indoor pets. They have huge ears and eyes, a long tubular body and long whippy tail. They stand high on their legs and have little round feet. Being extremely athletic, the Cornish are heavily muscled in the flank area and have a recognizable "waist" with a distinctive arch in their back. They appear to be walking on tiptoe. They are finely boned and have a lean, elegant model-like look.
