Hello,

I thought I would post in hopes that some day someone comes across it. I took in a 7 year old sphynx from a friend and she became my light and joy for a year and a half, until HCM ultimately forced my hand.

After much consideration, I would like to adopt again. I love sphynx’s because even I am a stage 5 clinger. So if you have one in need of a home where endless attention and treats will be given, I am available and would love to take one (or two!!) in

Thank you, and hello again

Thank you so much for your very kind words. She was just sort of given to me and she didn’t even hesitate when she was put in my arms. I transported and cremated her myself (crematory operator) and sometimes it feels like I was picked just because I had the tools and background to help her pass (I only had her for about a year and a half).

It’s been hard and I really debated if I’d be able to go through that kind of loss again but I seem to kind of be made for these cats and I was glad to rescue her, give her probably more attention than she’d ever gotten in her life, and give her a funeral with all the works.

I’m enjoying lurking here so far, thank you for the warm welcome :)

@sarahbeaunoir , (((hugs))) she could not have asked for a better mum..(what's her name?all paws are family). Thank you for being her person . She only knows your eternal love.
My heart was tender after the sudden loss of my first , Yoda girl. I keep her avatar photo in her honor. I am glad I kept my heart open to sphynxlove and adopted 4 in her honor. No matter the pain when she gained her wings, I would not have missed the journey of sphynxlove for anything in this world.

@Yoda mom she came named Isis but I ended up always calling her Peeper because her eyes were so big and always staring haha. If your loss was anything like mine I know how hard that is. They really are the best cats. I miss her every day and still cry about it. I love the idea of making her my avatar :) it’s so nice to read about you adopting more and making something tragic nice

@sarahbeaunoir , please read the fraud tips link it was very helpful saving me from scammers outside sphynxlair out in cyberworld.

sharing , there is also the option to reach out to reputable breeders about upcoming retirees.
. I share bcz I never knew until I adopted 2 yr old retiree Clairebare from a reputable breeder in FL . She came HCM scanned , fully vetted spayed. Her 1st mum and I are friends since my adoption gotcha day. Claire Bare is now 14 1/2. My Batman adoptee at age 2 from a member, turned 15 today!

never hesitate to pm me any ads you are looking at in cyberworld for an extra peek for red flags.

Hello, I am LeeAnn and live in Brandon, MS (just outside of Jackson). I have a 7 year old male seal point that needs a new home. I am a rescuer and he is unhappy with other cats in my home. I don't want him stressed with day to day life. He is wonderful, very loving, and I just want him to be happy. You can contact me directly at [email protected] for more info. I can provide photos too. He likes to venture into the backyard on occasion and run. He will run back and forth until he tires. He is a wonderful kitty. It breaks my heart to do this but I want what is best for him.
Oh my goodness. I am so sorry to hear he is stressed. And I understand how hard that must be for you. I'd love to speak with you further. Give me just bit because I have a few errands today but I will respond soon :)
