Hello, I recently adopted my first Sphynx from a family a couple of weeks ago. They were rehoming her because she had very bad allergies to certain foods but with a toddler they couldn't prevent her from eating anything they happened to drop, so this was the best decision for her.
Her neck had...
Okay so, I don't actually have a precious hairless baby yet (I'm still looking to adopt or rehome) but I do have a question about bathing them. So, I'm physically disabled, have a lot of back problems, Etc. and bathing my animals that I have now is difficult for me because getting down on the on...
I have a 5 yo rescued sphynx who I’m 90% sure was let outside consistently by the previous owner. When we got Freddy Krueger, he had severe yeast build up and very, very dry skin. This was 2 years ago. I am a veterinary technician, and have spent the last 2 years with many dermatologist visits...
Novel is only 14 weeks and we have only had him for 10 ish days and I already bathed him last weekend. Now, 4/5 days later, he already is dirty and a bit ripe. I don’t want to dry out his skin with too many baths, but he hates the baby wipes. They are in a wipe warmer too. He was really good for...
Hello everyone, I hope you are well! I just had a question about what product or method is best for just spot cleaning my kitten? I have had him for around 2 months and he is getting a little grubby. I do not want to full on bathe him as I don't believe he needs it. Thanks in advance!
Hi all. I have 2 sphynx boys, Albus (6) and Draco (2), and Draco is significantly more oily than Albus. He gets dirtier faster, his ears get waxier faster, and his nails get gunkier faster. Which of course means that between baths (1-2 weeks), furniture and counters get more marks on them. Does...
Hello,
Our baby gets very oily within a day or two after bathing. Especially on his chest and belly. I know it’s probably because it’s the warmest part of his body but this week was especially bad. I believe he’s also starting puberty so maybe that has something to do with it. He’s humping his...

Hi, I would like some advice and recommendations on brushing teeth, bathing and SPF. I have been using the toothpaste Beapar: for around over a year. At first he didn't let me brush his teeth so I had to put the toothpaste on my finger and rub it on to which then he'd lick it straight off so I...
I have recently rescued two sphynx cats from the shelter and am still getting up to speed with their care. I have been giving weekly baths which at first worked fine, but now the more pink girl is showing signs of overbathing. She is collecting extra oil around her neck and belly but also...
Hey everybody! Brand new to this place - and here's one of a few photos to follow of our new baby, Noodle!
She's coming up to her 6 months mark and she's an absolute doll - cuddly and affectionate, yet an absolute little monster when she wants to be. I adore her to bits. She's a baby to three...
Hello everyone,
My Marcline has these small brown spots that I know are dirt spots, but I cant seem to get rid of them.
We have tried all sorts of tricks online and even gently scrubbing with a glove loofa (so i can make sure Im not pressing too hard) and they just never go away.
I have...
Hi Everyone!
Melissa here. This is my first time posting but have read a lot of posts on here before. I love this site!
Nova, my sphynx child has sensitove and dry skin which occasionally makes her break out into rashes. I would like to move from bathing weekly to once every 2 or even 3 weeks...
Hello my name is Alex, I'm thinking about currently purchasing a Sphynx Cat or a Cornish Rex. My mother doesn't like fur a lot so these seem to be the perfect choice but I would like to ask a question to the community. I've heard that Sphynx cat get oily in general and wanted to know which cat...
Hello everybody, I am Jan from Berlin. Since 10 weeks I have a little Sphynxkitten Emma and since two weeks the two year old Marwin. Emma hates it if I try to bath her. She acts like in a cartoon, screeming and all praws spreat out of her body. I tried different strategies: sink in the kithcen...
Hi!
Ive been obsessed with Sphynxs (and all animals) for years and years! I decided to finally go for it and get my own little Sphynx! He will not be ready until 9th June. He is a little dark wrinkly black boy! :')
I am aware you have to trim their nails, clean their ears and bathe them.
I am...
I've read that aloe is toxic to cats, obviously if eaten, but what about if applied? I see many cat shampoo products boasting aloe, but I'd be concerned about them licking themselves after. Is this a real concern, or as long as it's rinsed properly, it's fine?
Hi, I am a Sphynx Mommy to be (in less then 2 weeks), I am very excited about that.
Here is my question: To bathe or not to bathe a Sphynx? Since I've been looking to adopt a Sphynx, I have read everthing that Is available on internet (forums, Vets, breeders, etc.) and seems to me like no one...
My new Sphynx kitten absolutely hates getting a bath. He is terrified of being in water. I've tried using a small tub, rinsing with a cup so the sound of running water won't scare him. Nothing works. Any tips out there?
Hey!
So today was our first bath together! The breeder told us Luna did like baths so I was a bit nervous.
It was a 2 man job simply because mom and I felt more comfortable that way. She complained in the beginning and then settled down and lets us give her a nice bath and clean her ears...
I've noticed that little Janis's nose has started to turn a dark brown color. I thought that her nose was just changing color, until I gave her a bath one day and the brown came off to reveal a little pink nose! I think I kept rubbing her nose with my hand and water that time I gave her a bath...

Hi everyone,
I just got Ade home a week ago and soon is the first bath with him. For that I would like to ask your tips regarding shampoo and the basic bathing routine (if there is any). What shampoo are you using and how do you handle the bathing? How often do you bath? Does your cats like...
