What is the difference between a Peterbald and a Canadian Sphynx?
• The only similarity between the two breeds is the hairlessness and the need to have their eyes and ears cleaned regularly. • The Peterbald is a long, muscular, elegant, extremely intelligent, active cat with huge ears and webbed feet. Due to the vigilance of responsible breeders, the Peterbald is known to be healthy. Sometimes, a Peterbald will produce oil on his/her body and needs to be cleaned. This is usually done with a baby wipe, but sometimes a bath is necessary (depends on your flooring). We have 5 adult Peterbalds and only one requires a baby wipe every week, and the other 4 do not require anything. • The Canadian Sphynx has a body shaped like a wine bottle, looks like a Gremlin, and has normal intelligence. They are very cute and will share their humans. They have a wonderful, loving personality and love to cuddle. The Canadian Sphynx produces oil on their bodies and need to be bathed one to three times a week. The Sphynx seems to have some health issues with IBS.
