We Scan Our Breeding Cats For HCM

Feline Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy is a heart disease. It is in All breeds of Cats, Dogs and even Humans. Sometimes it is genetic, and sometimes it is not. Some viruses can even cause it, or it can be passed down from a parent who is a carrier. There is no way to determine how a cat developed the heart disease once they have been diagnosed as HCM positive. If HCM is discovered, proper medication can prolong your cat’s life. There is no such thing as an HCM free Cattery. If you research pedigrees and go back far enough, you will find relatives in all lines worldwide that are HCM positive. Responsible Sphynx breeders scan their cats to identify cats with HCM so that they can be removed from their breeding program. 

Sphynx History

In 1966 a domestic cat gave birth to a hairless kitten in Toronto Canada. It was discovered to be a natural genetic mutation and the Sphynx cat, as we know it today, came into existence. This cat and a few other naturally hairless cats have been found worldwide; produced by Mother Nature, they are the foundation for this unusual breed. Cat breeders in North America and Europe have bred the Sphynx to normal coated cats and back to hairless cats for more than thirty years. The purpose of selective breeding such as this was to create a genetically sound cat with a large gene pool and hybrid vigor. When properly bred, the Sphynx is a very robust breed without health or genetic problems.

Sphynx Personality

The Sphynx is an inquisitive, intelligent, and extremely friendly cat. Warm and soft to the touch, Sphynx cats frequently sleep with their owners under the covers. Sphynx love to greet every new person visiting the home, and most get along well with dogs and other pets. Because of their hairlessness, Sphynx tend to get cold but they are intelligent enough to find a warm place- usually a computer monitor, a sunny window, a television, or under a blanket with their owners. Sphynx are highly active and will entertain themselves for hours and some Sphynx even fetch toys. Many Sphynx owners describe their cats as childlike due to their inquisitive and intelligent nature. Sphynx are loyal and dedicated to their owners and make very affectionate companions for everyone. We have a good selection of Sphynx kittens for sale.  See our available Sphynx kittens and cats.

General Description

The intriguing Sphynx cat never fails to draw a reaction from people – some people love the bald, wrinkled look, some are fascinated by the cat, while others are less than enthusiastic. But for those that take the time to get to know the cat, a great treat is in store. Sphynx are not always totally hairless, and there are different degrees of “hairlessness.” There can be a fine down on the body which makes the cat feel like a warm peach. Some short hair is usually present on the nose, ears and sometimes on toes and tail. Seasonal and hormonal changes in the cat may also effect hair development. The texture of Sphynx skin has been compared to a suede hot water bottle or warm chamois. They are very warm to the touch that you may just want to cuddle up with them-especially in cold weather. Their toes are like fingers, and they use them that way as they investigate and play with everything that takes their curiosity. Their wrinkled faces remind you of the wisdom we all gather with age while their big ears and lemon-shaped eyes give them a unique look. The Sphynx is an enigmatic breed.
