This is Thor, the Sphynx,a hairless cat. The pic is a little blurry but you get the idea. I have 2 of these Thor and Loki. They are great,like little monkeys.

Eww! They look creepy to me! Like a feline version of hairless rats and 'skinny pigs'! At least you don't get fur all over the furniture! :D I prefer the furry kind of cat - mine's semi longhair and waves her tail like a flag!
 
I absolutely love Sphynx! They have the coolest personalities. We used to get a few in the clinic I worked at. I have to say if I was going to get another cat ever, I would highly consider one of those. :)
 
are they hypo allergenic or is dander still an issue?
Sphynxes are not hypoallergenic. They still produce the protein to which allergic people react and shed it in their saliva and dander. The lack of hair may help to reduce the reaction in some people, but others are just as allergic to Sphynxes as to other cats.

They are not hypoallergenic but they are so unlike alot of cats that can be standoffish,is that a word? They jump on my shoulders when I come home and hang out on me while I am walking around. It's crazy,but all a part of the circus!
 
I looked and saw this thread and started thinking of egypt and figured this would be a joke thread - never knew there was a cat called a sphynx! Very exotic.
 
dang chuck you should just sit down and make a list of your zoo, sounds interesting lol.

are you a full time chameleon raiser or do you have a real life job outside of chameleons?

I am a full time chameleon raiser,but thats not how I get paid!
I own a gym and most of my reptile friends are at work with me so it makes my life a little easier in taking care of them.
 
Chuch I was also going to ask for a critter list. Just what all do you have tucked away?? You do have lots of variety. I still like the bird the best, oh except for the chams.
