I'm Bill. My nickname is "Spartan" a name I have had since I was in the military many years ago. I'm from Pennsylvania but I spent much of my life in the US in Honolulu, Hawaii. After leaving Hawaii, I went to Tokyo to teach at various major universities and work for a couple global corporations over the years. I moved to China going on five years ago and ending up here in Guangzhou (Canton) at the Higher Education Mega Center about two years ago teaching at an upper tier 'Big 10' university here but I digress...
I'm a lifelong Sphynx lover but sadly over the years my insane workload and unremitting schedule never afforded the time necessary to properly care for pets, especially one as precious as a Sphynx so I never allowed myself the privileged. I'm an extremely responsible person and I take obligations seriously to say the least.
Late last year, I signed a long term contract my current institution so now I'm here for at least the better part of a decade. Furthermore, I reduced my workload dramatically so I feel confident I can provide a high quality living environment for pets and have been taking measure to facilitate that end. Consequently, I found this community.
I started looking for show quality Sphynx cats here nearly a year ago but have have simply not any luck until recently. Long vexing story short, I now have a gray elf Sphynx girl coming to me sometime next month. This is her picture at two weeks old:
Getting her will be the fulfillment of a small nearly 40 year dream. Accordingly, I look forward to interacting within this community over the coming years.
If you have any questions please feel free to ask - I'm an open book so to speak....
