Hi all,
So, I have browsed around looking for some answers but couldn't find what I was looking for so figured I would post and see what people have to say! I am a new sphynx owner as of yesterday and have been doing lots of research.
Does anyone know about the anesthetic Ketamine? I have read that it is bad for the sphynx breed but want to know if anyone has solid info on this.
Next, she is clawing everything! I have read a lot about declawing and it seems that most people things it's mean. I have looked into alternatives like the Soft Paws nail covers as well. Input anyone??
Lastly, in reading about nutrition I have decided to feed her canned food but am not sure how much to feed her. I've read they need more because they are hairless. She's been eating 3.5 oz a day but I don't know if that's enough. I am going to do a partly raw diet and some canned but for now I just want to make sure she's getting enough.
