Poodle cats?

[SunnyD]

wtf?

In 1987, a mutant kitten was born in Montana with hair like a poodle. Named Miss DePesto, this kitten grew up and birthed curly kittens of her own. As the curly cat family tree grew, Miss DePesto's descendants eventually became recognized as a new breed: the Selkirk Rex.

Now, 25 years and about nine kitty generations later, researchers at the University of Veterinary Medicine, Austria, have confirmed that these felines are genetically distinct from previously known breeds, making Selkirk Rex the fourth curly-haired cat breed known.

More like nappy cats. Call me when they invent dreadlock cats or cornrow cats.

I hate poodles but the cat is pretty cute.
Laid back apparently, something a poodle is definitely not, and one of the reasons I do not like them.

Oh man... I wonder what the allergies are like with these cats?

Looks so soft....

Standard Poodles are awesome.
Our old neighbors had 3. They are very smart, energetic, huge and cute.
