FAQs

Are American Curl cats good pets?

American Curl cats make excellent pets due to their friendly, affectionate, and social nature. They are people-oriented, playful, and adapt well to family life, getting along comfortably with children, other cats, and well-mannered dogs. Their dog-like loyalty and kitten-like playfulness last well into adulthood, making them engaging and loving companions for families and individuals alike.

How much does an American Curl cat cost?

The cost of an American Curl cat typically ranges between £800 and £1,800 in the UK, reflecting the approximate equivalent of $1,000 to $2,000 in the United States. Prices depend on factors such as pedigree quality, breeder reputation, and specific physical traits like the distinct ear curl. It is advisable to purchase from reputable breeders to ensure the health and well-being of the cat.

Are American Curl cats rare?

American Curl cats are moderately rare but not extremely so. Their breed originated in the early 1980s and has maintained a diverse gene pool thanks to outcrossing with domestic cats until 2015, which has helped reduce common genetic health issues. They are recognised by major cat associations and while less common than typical domestic cats, they are accessible through breeders and cat shows.

Do American Curl cats shed a lot?

American Curl cats usually have short to medium-length coats and are moderate shedders. They shed less than many long-haired breeds, but individual cats with longer or softer fur may shed more noticeably. Regular grooming helps manage shedding, keeping the coat healthy and reducing loose hair around the home.
