Do not buy a sphinx if you're allergic to cats. People who are allergic are generally allergic to the oil (sebum). Sphinxs are awful for people who are allergic.

If not bathed regularly, they'll cover your furniture in that oil too.

Ah, thanks for the info! A lot of the articles I was looking at said that they were good for people with allergies, including one from a vet service, so that's good to know.

The whole hairless thing is also super unsettling to me so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

My ex thinks they are cute.

But I guess some people think naked mole rats are cute too. Or mangy bears?

At the age of fourteen a Zoroastrian named Vilma ritualistically shaved my testicles. There really is nothing like a shorn scrotum... it's breathtaking- I highly suggest you try it.
