Sphynx

No coat means regular bathing, sun care, and sweaters in cool rooms. Make room for energetic play and places to climb or explore each day. With little or no coat, skin care matters more than brushing. The published 6–12 lb adult range is a starting point; your pet's measured weight is what matters for choosing food and gear.
