As the curly gene is
dominant, when you mate a curly Selkirk Rex to another curly Selkirk Rex,
homozygous cats (owning two copies of the the curly gene) occur as a ratio
of 1:4 in this curly to curly mating. These cats tend not to be showable as
their type is altered & too finer boned but do produce all curly
offspring mated to a straight coated counterpart, the advantage of this is
pick of the litter is curly and not straight!
Although they look
slightly different to the regular Selkirk Rex cats you will see on the show
bench they still have the Selkirk purrsonality and endearing qualities.
