Jasmine Piddlewhiskers, Smoke Blue Selkirk Rex, Born December 7, 2010
This darling little baby girl was born last and is the sweetest and most delicate kitten of Gracie Piddlewhiskers' three babies. She's a smoke. That word describes a cat whose fur is dark at the tips and light at the base close to the skin. When you run your finger across her fur from back to front, you can see that her base color is lighter and the tips of her fur are darker. She is just way barely opening her eyes in this pic. Yesterday (Solstice and eclipse) she began to open them. Here she seems to be really concentrating on the bright sheet she can see. Jasmine is not as stocky and big as the other two girls, so she might be less 'typey.' The idea in the Selkirk Rex breed, is that Selkirks would be outcrossed with other pedigreed cats so that by 2015, they would have more genetic diversity and also look thick, cobby and plush. Jasmine is 100% official Selkirk Rex breed, but her genes include ancestors of Persian, British Shorthair, and Exotic. Today, Selkirks are being distinguished as Long Hair, Short Hair, Straight and Curly. Not sure but she seems at this time to be a short hair straight. She is for sale, $250 and when 12 weeks old she can go to a new home as a neutered family pet Selkirk Rex with papers.
We'd like to feel assured that she will get a great lifetime home and be treated like royalty. When you choose a kitten, you are adding a new family member and we want to make sure that it is a totally positive relationship all the way around.
