"Sphynx cats and kittens, regarded as one of the friendliest and most intelligent cat breeds, have become the 'dog lover’s' cat of choice. Sphynx are best described as a combination of a dog, a parrot, and a monkey. You cannot teach an old dog new tricks, but you CAN teach a Sphynx cat new tricks! They do not shed, so feel free to wear black again."
