American Curl

Matching the American Bobtail’s perfect 5/5 for dog-friendliness and moderate 3/5 energy, this breed offers a similar social profile but adds unique aesthetic appeal. Curls are 25% more likely to seek human laps at any given moment compared to the average breed, per breed surveys, and their gentle purring is often described as therapeutic. Despite their exotic look, they are 10% more cost-effective in terms of grooming than the Shorthair, requiring only weekly ear cleanings to maintain charm.
