Are American Curl cats rare?
Yes, American Curl cats are rare. This rarity is primarily due to their unique genetic mutation that causes their distinctive curled-back ears, which isn’t widespread among the feline population. Breeding American Curls requires careful genetic management to preserve the ear-curling trait while ensuring the cats’ overall health, limiting the number of breeders and thus limiting the number of American Curls available for adoption in shelters and rescues.
