Meet the American Curl "What happened to their ears? Are their ears always like that? Did you use a curling iron on their ears?" Nothing happened to their ears! Yes, their ears are always like that! No, a curling iron was not used to achieve those extraordinary ears! The curled ear is a natural genetic mutation. First-time admirers are always surprised by this cat's different-looking ears and impressed by their overall striking beauty. The American Curl's ears are firm to the touch and curl back in a graceful arc away from their face toward the center back of their head. Although American Curls were discovered in California as strays in 1981, they are now recognized as United States' cat breeds. Being people-oriented, they like to participate in all household projects and delight in "bumping heads" with their owners or new human friends. Simply stated, they are extremely affectionate and absolutely ear-resistible! Join us in this forum and tell us about your American Curl!
