Frequently Asked Questions
Are Sphynx cats completely hairless?
No, they have a fine layer of fuzz, similar to that of suede.
Do Sphynx cats need extra warmth?
They are indeed sensitive to cold and need heated beds or clothing in winter.
Why do they need frequent baths?
Oils that their skin produces don’t get absorbed by fur, so bathing regularly keeps oil buildup and skin issues in check.
Are Sphynx cats hypoallergenic?
They only shed very little but still produce allergens in their skin oils and saliva.
