Care and maintenance
Caring for an Ural Rex is easy thanks to their short or semi-long coat. Brushing the cat 1–2 times a week is necessary to maintain the curly texture and prevent matting. Bathing is recommended only when necessary, using gentle shampoos. It's also important to keep an eye on the cleanliness of their ears and teeth. Their diet should be balanced, taking into account their activity level and needs.
