#4 The breed standard was approved in the 1970s
and the German river was recognized by all influential organizations - FIFe, WCF, etc., except for the CFA, which did not consider the German Rex as a separate breed and considered it as one of the varieties of the Devon Rex.
#5 The expressive muzzle has clearly defined and graceful contours.
The head is round in shape, the ears are large enough and widely spaced. The eyes of the German Rex are round, set far from the nose. They have well-developed cheekbones and chin. The nose is straight with a clear transition to the forehead.
#6 The German Rex is a small cat.
Of course, you cannot call it dwarf, but it also does not belong to the category of large ones. The average weight of an adult animal ranges from 4 to 5 kg.
The body is fleshy, muscular, but does not create a feeling of massiveness. Rex paws are of medium length. The hind legs are slightly longer than the front legs, which gives the feeling of a raised croup.
