Lovely heartbreaker

[Marina]

Hello
my name ist Marina, i am 46 years old and i am living in germany.
About 3 month ago a friend of mine called me and told me that a sphynx cat was been selling on ebay germany:-(

He was injured, very nervoes but a great little sweetheart, so i fell in love with him in a few seconds
I called him Kuno, translation for a nacked body boy
Kuno was born in April 2010 and i don´t remember a cat who wanna always cuddle like him.

I´am searching for some infos about sphynx cats but unfortunately in germany sphynx will be ignored.

And here is my loveley loveley boy

Awww, Kuno is a sweetheart! I'd cuddle him in a heartbeat

Why are Sphynx ignored in Germany?

Hello Marina. Kuno is very handsome. There is lot of information here about sphynx, I hope you find what you need.

Welcome Marina....and thanks for saving Kuno from ebay

 

[Marina]

i dont know the special word in english, so i wanna hope you understand
painful breeding?

I logged in various forums but get always only the same answer Sphynx cat owner are not be allowed

A Sphynx cat is not "normaly" and for the most people very ugly :-(

Welcome Marina, Any question you have, you will probally find the answer here. There is lots of great people here and lots of great information. You are now one of us.
Thank you for saving Kuno. He is beautiful. I love that sweet face!

 

[Marina]

Thank you very much for all your nice greetings!!!!

You cannot imagine how wonderful i feel now.
I love him so much and my other cat makes no differents.

First of all i urgent need some clothes for him.
In germany you only can get some for dogs, but Kuno can not run or walk with it.

My next question, how do I clean his ears without hurting him
they are always dirty.

Perhaps i find a helping page where I can read everything?

Thanks a lot and a very big hug

Marina

There is pretty kitty designs and she makes beautiful custom sweaters- she is in Russia and shipping may be cheaper to you. Good luck and you have definately found a sphynx loving family here

 

[Mews2much]

Do you want me to have my friend translate in german for you.
She is from Germany but does not have sphynx.
Spynx are hated in Germany and many of show friends that live in europe said its bad even at shows.
You will love sphynx they are unlike any other breed of cat.
If you have any more questions just ask.

Welcome to the Lair, your baby is so cute!!

 

[linepp]

Welcome, thank you for saving your baby from Ebay! You will never regret it, I know.... Try not to worry about negative feelings from some of your countrymen. You will certainly not get that here!!!

 

[kiennasmom]

Welcome, Marina!! Kuno is beautiful! Thank you for giving him a wonderful forever home!

 

[Diesel]

He IS a lovely boy !!!

 

[Candys]

I love Kuno and I am sure he is happy that you love him. We would love to answer any questions. You are in a great place. Welcome.

Hi marina! and welcome!!! kuno is very adorable!

for ears: you can get a cat ear cleaning solution at a pet store, then use small ammount on a cotton pad or cotton ball. try not to use cotton swabs / "q-tips" to much (or not at all if possible) if you aren't used to it.

and he loves to cuddle with you so much because he loves you! and because he likes your body heat! sphynx always look for the warmest spot!

there are a few people on here who sell clothing (pretty kitty??) and a few online retailers too.

the admin have great threads on here about sphynx health, so don't forget to check that out too.

youtube it also very helpful for instructional videos.

i hope you find everything you are looking for here!

all the best!

AW! He is so cute! I love how fuzzy he is! Welcome to the Lair

 

[Gadzukz]

Welcome Marina and Kuno! We will share in the love of your sphynx and we do like pics and stories of your boy. No discrimination, we also love the furry ones

I use some dog clothes for my girls, if he simply flops over when you put them on him, he might not be used to wearing clothes, but if they rub or restrict movement then it's probably the wrong size. Also sphynx love a heated blanket, so that might be an option for you.

I look forward to getting to know you and Kuno!

 

[Gullivers Keeper]

So part of Germany still does not accept certain kinds of beings if they are different? You would think they would have learned by now

Well welcome to the Lair, you are sure to find lots of friends here, no matter what your baby looks like, in fact we find him very handsome!!
