Our Sphynx cats are 12 years old now. The one in the photo looks exactly like our male cat. They are the most curious and sweet dispositioned cats we’ve ever owned. We also have a cross-breed (bought at a much earlier time) who will be 15 years old on Christmas eve.

So just how does that work?

Hairy in the front half,and naked behind, or is it vice-versa?

Of is it more like scattered splotches and isolated tufts amid clear and hairless, Sahara desert-like Sphinxiod-ism?

Ok, ok, gene expression typically doesn't play out like that...but it was fun to think about in that way...

My vet has a sphynx cat. He’s the biggest cuddlebug in the office. (The cat, not the vet.)
