Overview

LaPerm

The LaPerm is a uniquely attractive breed known for their soft, curly coat that ranges from wavy to tight ringlets. This naturally occurring mutation produces a textured coat unlike any other breed, giving them a permanently tousled, carefree look. Beneath their distinctive appearance, LaPerms are gentle, affectionate cats with an easygoing disposition that makes them delightful companions for families and individuals alike.

Skookum

The Skookum is a spirited designer breed that combines the Munchkin's short legs with the LaPerm's distinctive curly coat. The result is a small, confident cat with a bouncy, curly-haired appearance and a personality that far exceeds its compact size. Playful, outgoing, and surprisingly athletic, Skookums bring joy and laughter to any household.
