My happy place.
Beautiful pictures, you have captured them really well.
The first one is so sweet, almost looks like a tiny baby in a blanket.
I have never seen a sphynx cat in real life but can only imagine how they must feel.
Am I right in thinking that they are not exactly furless but have a soft downy fur?
Do they feel the cold more than a cat with fur?

Thank You!
They feel very soft especially after a nice clean bath, their fur is like peach fuzz at least to me.
They also have a higher body temperature so they feel very very warm compared to cats with hair/fur, so he eats a lot from time to time.
And I think it's safe to say if we, humans, feel cold, he probably is too! I make sure the temp stays warm indoor. He is always under, or near, the blankets when he takes a nap.

Too cute! I've always wanted a sphinx! I've seen one in person not too long ago at a vet. Held it.. it was SO WARM and yes, I'd describe it as soft peach fuzz!
