minus-squareMeDuViNoX@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up0·1 month agoI like Sphynx kitties, I think they’re cute, but I’m not sure how healthy it is for the breed?
minus-squaremugthol@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up0·1 month agoHairless cats do have certain health risks and need to be bathed regularly (once a week) In general I would advise you to not buy a specific breed, as they are more expensive and have more health problems than a general “house car” from the shelter
minus-squareSchadrach@lemmy.sdf.orglinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·1 month agoYeah, but a lot of people with a hairless cat have one because they want a cat but are allergic. For them a rescue isn’t really an option. For anyone who doesn’t have a good reason to need a particular breed of dog/cat, get a rescue instead.
