hi,
not sure about food making them grow hair, where did you find that out?
my breeder had mine on iams and gave me some i have that in a bowl but i have given him raw too which was the intention and he LOVES it! hes eats the bones and everything and hes tiny.
Hey there it was on 1 of the forums didnt think it was actually true tho lol
I think we need to check our semantics on this question. If by hair, you mean the fuzzies- then yes, even a great bred Sphynx from a wonderful breeder can get fuzzy legs/feet/tail/face/ears. Typically, their body still remains bare, but that's typical.
The fact is- there is a difference between a pet quality kitten and a show quality kitten oftentimes and most people own pet quality kittens. If your kitten develops some fuzz due to hormones or the weather, etc, it won't change your love for him/her and most people find it utterly charming.

It isn't.
First there need to be a genetic disposition to actually grow hair at all before it is possible. If that is in place there might still be other things that need to happen for it to start like cold weather or hormonal changes.
A sphynx that is well bred should not under ANY circumstance grow hair though. Fuzz ok, but not hair, and certainly not outside of it's hair zones.
Food wont start hair growth. There would have to be hormones in it for that, and not just any hormone, the exact right one. And even if that were to happen only a cat with genetics in him allowing hair to grow would be affected.
