Hello there! I am Jack's mom (also known as Kyleen). I have always been partial to cats and about 2.5 years ago, I was sent an email from a friend of a picture of a Sphynx her sister-in-law just got. I thought she was the funniest and cutest thing I ever saw! Then, I went to Scottsdale, Arizona and stayed with friends who have a flamepoint Siamese with super short hair that, at first glance, I thought he was hairless. He had the sweetest disposition and from then I knew that I wanted to look into the hairless breed. I was not in an emotional position to get a pet after losing my last cats in a divorce (it was a mutual decision, but still, it tore me up!). So, I found myself ready for a new little guy (I am partial to boy cats), and started actually researching the Sphynx breed. I was elated at what I read,.my male tabby cat was unusually friendly and loving, and to learn that in this breed that is the norm,wow! Plus, I was so accustomed to hair balls, using lint rollers EVERY morning before work (even having to keep them AT work, too!), and the thought of not having hair all over. I was just totally sold. Now, where to find one. I live in El Paso, Texas and there are NO breeders in the area, so I was looking at Dallas (which I'd have to fly), or Phoenix, AZ (a 6-hour drive) and then stumbled upon a breeder in Deming, NM 1 hr. 45 min. away! I emailed and asked lots of questions, and within a week drove out there and picked up my 14.5 week old boy, who is now Jack!
I was endeared to Jack immediately! He is such a sweet and funny boy and all of my family absolutely adores him! He has settled into his new home nicely and is truly the king of the house! I just discovered this website by accident and am thrilled to become a member! I have had a hard time finding clothes for him that fit him (the necks on the dog clothes are many times too large), but have found him stuff on eBay, which he wears with no problems. He shivered for a couple days until my mom took him out to get him some t-shirts! I keep my house kind of cool, so he had to both acclimate and get some shirts. Now he is just fine! Plus, he loves to sleep in his fuzzy blanket during the day when I am at work and in bed with me, of course, under the covers! I am amazed at how quickly I have bonded to my little naked man!
