What are American Curl cats like?

An American Curl cat is known for the rare curled-back ears which give them their name. Weighing up to 10 pounds and up to 20 inches in length, they are somewhat muscular cats. Their fur can vary in length and color. Registered American Curl breeders will have kittens for sale with black, white, gray, brown, cream, red and many other fur variations.

American Curls are known for maintaining a kitten-like nature throughout their lives. They like to follow their humans around and prod them with their paws. They like to climb, explore and some will even play fetch. They also have a cuddly side, and will curl up in your lap during downtime. When considering an American Curl for your family, be prepared for their inquisitive and attention-seeking nature.

Make sure you ask about:

  • Health history of the parents and vaccinations. They should have their first vaccinations by the time they're adopted.
  • Whether they've bred their American Curls with other breeds (they should disclose this and it would make it not a purebred lien.
  • Have the socialized the kitten among other kittens?
  • Do they belong to a American Curl breed club? You can ask for references from the club.

Why does it matter if I buy from a registered American Curl breeder?

You can ask them about a wide range of topics such as the American Curl’s genealogy, the right kitten for you, common health problems with American Curls to look out for.

I have had two interests since I was very young… the Internet and cats. I grew up with two lovely cats in my family, Midnight and Chloe. But when I started looking for a cat as an adult, I realized how few reliable resources there are for finding ethical breeders. So I combined my Internet skills and cat knowledge to create Cat Kingpin, the #1 resource for cat breeders online. Have a question or suggestion for my list? You can reach me here.
