May20: The LaPerm Cat

Fact 1: When a brown tabby barn cat named Speedy produced a litter of kittens in The Dalles, Oregon, in 1982, one of them was bald, with tabby markings on it's skin, and big ears that were spaced wide apart. When it's coat began to develop, it looked even more different: it was curly and that was the name it was given.
Fact 2: The clever LaPerm cat has a sense of humor. Often described as clownish, it is something of a mischief-maker who makes talented use of its paws to open doors, swipe things it wants or tap you on the shoulder for attention.
Fact 3: Some LaPerm cats have a wavy coat, some have tight ringlets, and still others have long corkscrew curls.
