Hairless Cat

JEFF


After my strenuous search for a bald guinea pig failed (apparently they are only used for scientific research into skin care products) I have decided really want a bald, wrinkly pet cat, a breed known as the Sphinx. His name would be Jeff.





advantages:

no allergy's


feels like an old person


and you have to sun cream it regularly.... mmm


Disadvantages:


they're expensive


have special dietary needs


they get sun burnt easily


you have to give them baths because they do not lick them selves


they are sensitive to temperature change and you have to knit them carigans... actually no thats an advantage.


they are hard to train so they shit everywhere.


In other words... THE PERFECT PET!

Now my only problem is trying to smuggle Jeff through South Campus's tight customs program/strict no pets policy. bummer.


cool. Now you can watch this delicious video of a 


enjoy!

That certainly is one interesting cat! lol
No pets allowed on south-campus? awww, you'll have to settle for a albino goldfish or something. A guy in Doman halls has hermit crabs, im sure they'll be lenient towards smaller critters :D

I have a sphinx. She is my best friend, but some of your info is wrong. The dander (dead skin cells) is what you are allergic to not the fur so if you have cat allergies you still will with a sphinx. They are not completely bald they have very short fur and feel more like velvet or a really soft buzz cut than an old person. not sure about sun cream cause my cat doesn't go out side. they are a little expensive. they do need baths regularly but they do lick themselves, actually my cat cleans her fur all the time, but since they don't have long fur the get oily and dirty. they don't shit everywhere, my cat was already litter trained when she came home from the breeder. but they are worth every penny cause they have the most distinct personality I have ever seen in a cat. my cat acts more like a dog and follows my everywhere, sleeps next to me and always has to be in the same room with me. they are also very talkative so it might give you away if your trying to hide it. but they really are the sweetest pets ever.
