Customer Review
This book is a wonderful reference for the Cornish Rex owner (really someone owned by a Cornish
Rex!) or for people considering taking one of these balls of energy and loving, non-stop attention into
their lives. These cats are a little different... and Greta Huls takes you through background, grooming,
feeding, healthcare and breed standards in a very interesting, straightforward and informative way. For
instance, the information on the breed's intolerance to pre-op drugs is invaluable and possibly a
lifesaver. In addition, the wonderful photographs perfectly illustrate the Cornish Rex's beauty and
character.
