Singapura
- Size: approx. 33-41 cm
- Weight: approx. 1.5-3 kg
The Singapura is considered the smallest cat breed in the world. It remains quite small and delicate throughout its life, typically weighing no more than 3 kilograms when fully grown. However, this small breed is in no way inferior to its counterparts: it is just as agile, climbing-friendly, and people-oriented as other felines. They enjoy being petted and are generally very sociable, which is why you should never keep a Singapura alone.
Since the breed is so rare and there are only a few reputable breeders in Germany, Austria, or Switzerland, you should expect a correspondingly high purchase price for a Singapura.

Siamese Cat
- Size: approx. 30-35 cm
- Weight: approx. 3-5 kg

Curious, strong-willed, and very affectionate - this describes the Devon Rex in just a few words.

Cornish Rex
- Size: approx. 38-40 cm
- Weight: approx. 3-5 kg
Similar to the Devon Rex, the Cornish Rex is also very active, energetic, and spirited. However, this small cat breed brings a greater portion of independence and can be well kept as an outdoor cat.
