Cat Breed of The Week - Sphynx

These cats always interest me because they're hairless well sometimes not always hairless but still a lot less hair then your typical cat. 


The Sohynx breed originated in 1966 in Toronto Canada, discovered through genetic mutation. These cats may not always be hairless in fact their a different degrees' of hairlessness! The colours and patterns on the Sphynx are limitless and can occur at any stage of maturity.  They are medium sized cats and not fragile in any way. They have sturdy boning with good muscle development. 
They absolutely love attention because they always receive attention wherever they go, when they are not receiving attention they are usually exploring their surroundings and climbing trees and high places. They are very friendly cats and are good to keep around strangers and other pets, other pets a recommended when you leave during the day.  

As I said these cats fascinate me because they are so unique and intriguing. My neighbour owns this  breed of cat and I have to agree with their personality 100% friendly and outgoing all the way!.
