    Oh sorry... I just check in my list the breeds I have no photos of. The next is Bohemian Rex - would you like to try that one?

    I understand your devotion to that horse - I'm an Arab fan and have two of them here:

    I *THINK* this is a Bohemian Rex, the words were in German, but it popped up with this picture on the website. I might be mistaken though, but it's all I can find, seeing as that this breed is also extinct.




    Here's the actual site for that picture, if you want to see it. http://www.enimal.de/tiere/a/Bohemian%20Rex/414/2/29

    Your horses are GORGEOUS!! I'm so jealous! LOL

    I'm actually looking to buy a horse soon, I just need to find a place to board it. I grew up with horses, cattle, dogs, cats, chickens, pigs, etc and I miss the horses & cattle. I want to move to the country & start to build a ranch, but unfortunately, right now that isn't possible, due to finances. Maybe after I'm at this job awhile.

    My first horse was an Arabian, he was gorgeous and had an excellent pedigree. Unfortunately, my Dad thought he was too "dangerous" for me, so he sold it and bought me an insane Quarter Horse. That horse was dangerous, bucked me off more times that I can count, knocked me unconscious once for about a half hour.

    Can I see an Alpine Lynx next please?

    I've never seen a bohemian rex, but that cat definitely has some persian in it's ancestry... I wonder what breeds were used to create this hybrid?

    Persian was one of them, from what I gathered during my reading. IIRC, it was Persian and some kind of rex or rex relative.

    I don't read Geman, but I thought I cought the words Cornish Rex in the text... so it could have been that was the other breed. Considering the difference in the two breeds (type-wise), I can't imagine that it would be an easy hybrid to work with. They strongly resemble some of the more extreme selkirk rexes that I've seen.

    Since German is my mother tongue, I could read the page. :-)
    Bohemian Rexes were a mutation of Persians with curly hair, no hybrids. Later one cornish Rex queen was crossed in to make the breed shorthaired.

    @Selkirk: I'm even more fascinated by Neva Masquarades than by the non-pointed Siberians. The great thing is that as a breeder of Siberians you can have all existing colours, even colourpoint. But well, I love so many breeds... My favs remain Bengal, Birman and Tiffanie.

    @Ohmycats: I just visited your website and you have ABSOLUTELY gorgeous cats, really!! I knew some "helmi" pics before and I'm still admiring your beautiful cats. You chose 3 great breeds. When saying "Highlander", do you mean "Highland Lynx"? Because in Europe, a "Highlander" is a British Longhair.

    @DallasRechelle: I didn't know the Alpine Lynx before. Looks like a polydactyl Highland Lynx, though.



    My next empty entry is Brazilian Shorthair. Hope you can find something...

    It seems that I was wrong:

    Alpine Lynx will come in one color only - solid white. Alpine Lynx may be curled eared or straight eared, but curled ears are preferred. They may be long or short haired, but long hair is preferred. Polydactyl feet are preferred.

    So this would be one:

    So was that a Bohemian Rex?

    This one was a lot easier than the others you've given me lately.

    Brazilian Shorthair:



    I'd like an American Keuda next, please.
