the Sphynx Cat

The Sphynx is generally referred to as the "hairless cat". On first glance, a common myth is that the breed is Egyptian or Mexican ; but the Sphynx is a genetic mutation. The stories date back over a century, where hairless cats have woven their way through history all over the world! However, the true nature of what we call Sphynx today emerged around the late 1960s in Canada. The personality of a Sphynx is incomparable to that of many other breeds. Most of the time considered "loving to the point of annoying", you might expect to find a Sphynx on the shoulders of their owner, cuddled in bed stealing the covers, or on top of the TV... and always purring, ready for attention! It's hard to say "No" to a Sphynx. They live well with other cats, dogs, and love children!
