Okay, I will admit, I don't ever stop looking for new kitties...but I think I will take a break after this weekend! (I keep telling people I'm going to stop at 4, but for some reason nobody believes me.)

Anyway, I'm a member of the Yahoo Sphynx Rescue Group, and these two were posted on there by a wonderful breeder three hours from me on the opposite coast of Florida. They were owned by an older gentleman who was breeding them and giving the kittens away. I guess he got sick of breeding or overwhelmed or whatever, and dropped them off at the SPCA. SPCA had them spayed/neutered and vaccinated, and then the breeder adopted them and set out to find them a good home.

Nelson, the tux boy, I'm told has a very outgoing and lovable typical sphynx temperament. Mandy, the tortie girl, is more shy and reserved. She's very dependent on Nelson so the breeder insisted that they be adopted together as a pair. (Ok, twist my arm!!)

And, remember they are 3 hours away on the other coast of Florida? Well, it just so happens that the breeder's Grandmother lives 10 minutes away from me - so she's going to drive the kitties over on Saturday and visit her Grandmother. The whole thing worked out perfectly and was totally meant to be!

She also tells me Nelson has been around her other cats and has been great, so I don't anticipate problems introducing them to Walter and Helen. Walter will probably just pout for a couple of days like he did when Helen came home. But Nelson is going to make an awesome playmate - he'll be able to keep up with Walter!! :LOL:

Well, Ruth, it could happen sooner than you expect. You may be surprised to hear that I adopted my very first sphynx in August last year. (sadly, he passed away in March) Now, Saturday, just over a year later, I am welcoming numbers 4 and 5!! :LOL: They really are addicting!

Ruth,
Janice has more litters on the way and you already talked to her.
Mabe you can get one.
I got Cleo last Dec and I am getting my new sphynx soon.
You can never have just 1 sphynx.
They are like potato chips lol.
My Cleo is a Tuxedo Sphynx.
