In memory of Rex Q of Rexphiles. I rescued
him the summer of 1997 and he died Jan. 19, 2011. He was the most
loving cat I ever had. The above photo is of him
shortly after I rescued him.

"I
had read all about how social Cornish Rexes are, how happy they are to interact, how playful and active they are, but these are adults who've
lived with one person their whole lives. I can only think that they
were well socialized as kittens, and that the natural Rex personality is
to not only accept any human immediately, but to shower them with
affection. Clearly human interaction is far more important to Rexes
than territory.
"I have had some very outgoing and social cats
in the past. But this is different. And while this may seem like
sacrilege to confirmed cat people, I must say these are the most
dog-like cats I've ever experienced. I heartily recommend Cornish Rexes
to anyone--and don't worry about adopting an adult, if you'd rather go
that route. I'm sure some are less effusive than others, and some might
require more time to adjust to a new household, but on the fourth day
since adding these guys to my menagerie, I have to say I am absolutely
sold on this breed."
