Haha, Lesley... beats me! If I'm a breeder I would. What's the point of not registering, right? If you can afford to buy thousands of dollars breeding cats, don't tell me you can't afford to register your cats for merely 50 dollars! (this is real life scenarios, Lesley)

Yeah of course, if one knows what Cornish Rex looks like. And one doesnt get cheated buying a non-ped Cornish Rex at a pedigree price Cornish Rex, after all they are all Cornish Rex, yes?

Not many. Not many at all! Less than the fingers on my right hand, perhaps?
