No need for a comb or brush for this breed, however, daily sponging is highly suggested if you wish to keep your furniture free from the natural oils dispensed by the Sphynx. You also need to help your Sphynx keep his ears free from oily buildup.

This smart, high-energy breed loves to show off for his favorite people and is social to house guests.

The Sphynx seems to operate on two speeds: fast and stop. When it is time to nap, a Sphynx turns into a heat-seeking missile to find a toasty place, usually under the covers.

Don’t be surprised by their chowhound-like appetites. This breed is noted for its high metabolism and need to eat a hardy portion of food daily, but is at low risk for becoming overweight or obese.
