Hairless Cat FAQs

Can my Sphynx go outside?

Yes, but they are very valuable and you run a huge risk of theft. Also they do feel the cold and need sun cream on a hot day as they can burn. Some people have safe enclosed gardens or outdoor cat runs, or you could always train your Sphynx to harness.

Will I have to keep the heating on all day?

No, but if your house is cold you will need to provide a heated bed, they are hairless.

Can I have a Sphynx if I have an allergy?

The Sphynx is not totally hypo allergenic, they give off skin cells which can cause a reaction. You should be OK if your allergy is to hair only. Come and spend some time with them to see if you have a reaction.
