Hello Everyone 
What a great website this is! Im very exited about becoming a Sphynx owner and part of this wonderful community. Im Tanya, a proud new mommy of a baby boy named Nacho. At first we thought he was a girl but turned out that he was just the smallest dude in the bunch.
I talked my husband into getting a Sphynx kitten a few months ago which was a long and agonizing process for both of us. Eventually he caved. With battle won, I started my search. When I saw Nacho's picture I was sold right away. I knew I had to have him. We contacted the breeder who turned out to be not a breeder, but just a girl with a female Sphynx who happened to have a friend with a male. It was the first littler for everyone, the cats and their owners.
When we came to see him, at the time we were told he was a girl, we saw three cutest kittens playing all over the couch. If my husband had any second thoughts about getting a cat they were gone as soon as he laid his eyes on those bundles of joy. Nacho was the smallest one in the bunch and very different from his brothers who kept running around like crazy and climbing everything they saw. Unlike his brothers, Nacho came to me and sat on my lap, immediately I fell in love.
We wanted a boy originally, but since Nacho was so great we decided a girl is ok too. Imagine our discovery
a few days later when we saw his little junk! After we brought him home he's been eating like crazy and visibly grew in just two days. I guess he was the weakest link and got bullied around by his brothers for food.
Nacho is amazing. He's so much more than what I imagined him to be. He loves to cuddle on my husband's chest and nibble on his neck, he even gave him a little hickey. They're best friends now!
Sorry if this post is too long
, Im just very exited and happy!
And can someone help me please, now I have a few questions... Im confused about what color he is supposed to be. His face and ears are black, is he a mink point? And also since he didn't come with a contract we have a choice of neutering him... should we? what are the chances of him spraying if we don't? Do most people here neuter their boys?
Thanks a bunch,
