I am thinking about getting a little Sphynx guy as the newest addition to my family.
I have done research and know that they require weekly bathings, as well as frequent nail trimming. Also, I know that they build up oil in their ears and paws, so they will need to be cleaned weekly also. They could also use a frequent rub down with an unscented babywipe. Also, I have learned that they are not really "outdoor" cats because of the extreme weather (heat/sunlight would give them a sunburn, and cold weather is just plain too cold) All of this, I can manage no problem.
What I have not found information on is: food. Do they require a special diet? How long do they usually live? Are their temperments any different from a regular cat?
Any additional information anyone can offer?
Any good/bad experiences?
I don't think I could EVER give up a pet, so I want to make sure it is a good fit with my life.
