Why Japan's Chiriko cat always looks unhappy

A cat named Chirico lives happily with its owner in Japan. She is a very sweet and cheerful cat, although... at first glance, this lady can not be said so! But as we know, the first impression is often deceptive – after all, it's all about one unique feature of this kitty.

Many people are used to the fact that cats are soft fluffy balls, looking at us with their angelic eyes full of innocence. However, the cat Tiriko from Japan is not like that at all. 

At first glance, she resembles a disgruntled teddy bear, before the desire to hug which is impossible to resist. And all because she is a representative of the Selkirk Rex, a unique breed known for its curly hair and photogenic nature.

But as soon as you look at the expression on her face, you will immediately see that Tiriko looks like a mean girl. And we hasten to assure you of the opposite: according to the owner of Tiriko, despite the fact that her face creates exactly this impression, she is quite unkind. 

This is a very gentle and obedient cat with different facial expressions. It turns out that the most familiar expression of Tiriko's face is yawning.

Chiriko is an aristocratic cat who lives in the Japanese city of Tokyo. She became popular on the web after the hostess started to lead her Instagram. Chiriko's" perpetually sullen " appearance doesn't make her look like a very sweet, loving, and friendly creature, but in fact, she is a charm.

Why does Chirico have such an expression on his face? It's all about her rare breed-the Selkirk Rex. In addition to the fact that the breed carries the gene for curly hair, the structure of the muzzle of these cats makes them dissatisfied in appearance. In fact, they are majestic and very cute creatures.

Selkirk-Rex cats have a calm, reserved character. They are patient, obedient, friendly, affectionate. These cats need the constant attention of the owner, get along well with children, and quickly find a common language with other cats, and even dogs.
