Profile

The origins of the American Wirehair can be traced back to a red and white kitten born on a farm in Verona, New York State, in the 1960s. Although cats with wiry coats were reported in Europe before 1960s, none was establishes as a breed. Later, American Wirehair cats are cross breed with American Shorthair to further develop the breed. This breed is rarely encountered outside the USA and an American Wirehair cat with curly whiskers is highly valued in its homeland.
