Temperament

The American Curl is best summed up as gentle, people-oriented, playful. Expect a cat that's right in the middle of everything you do, mostly in comfortable silence. Chaos rating 3/5 means a daily zoomies window is part of the deal.

Care Notes

Grooming: Light effort. A weekly once-over plus nail trims covers it. Exercise: with moderate energy, plan daily play sessions and a climbing spot. Health: keep up annual vet visits, dental care, and weight watch; ask your vet about screening common to the breed line.
