The most exotic hairless cat breeds include the Sphynx, Elf, Dwelf, and Donskoy. Each has distinct traits—like the Elf’s curled ears, the Dwelf’s short legs, and the Donskoy’s more rubbery skin. These breeds are known for their affectionate nature, low-shedding skin, and striking looks.
Not necessarily! While breeds like the Dwelf or Elf may have additional grooming or temperature needs, their care routine is manageable with proper education. Regular bathing, skin checks, ear cleaning, and warmth are key. Read our Sphynx Cat Care Guide for detailed info.
The Canadian Sphynx is a top choice for families due to its playful, affectionate, and social personality. Always choose a breeder who socializes kittens early, like we do at Purradox Sphynxery.
