What does your Sphynx cat smell like?

[Baby Luna]

My

I would highly recommend that any cat, Sphynx or otherwise that comes from a cattery and has diarrhea should not only have a Fecal and Giardia test sent to the lab but also tested for tritrichomonas foetus. This is a single cell protozoan parasite that is much more common then people think. It will NOT be detected in a normal fecal test. It should be detected by a PCR test. I found it on my Sphynx by running a Feline Diarrhea Panel by Idexx labs. He was also infected with giardia and roundworms when I got him, treated for those but his diarrhea did not clear up until he was treated for the tritrichomonas. I have a coworker who got her Sphynx kitten from a cattery in a completely different state then mine and he too was positive. It's very easily treated with ronidazole.

My baby had giardia when she got home, I agree w u. Hopefully when we check her Monday it's cleared. Still scary!

Does your Sphynx kitty have a distinct smell?

We have fruity shampoo for her! So she'll smell like that I guess when she comes home

Radar covers himself in food when he eats so he smells like old cat food more and more the closer we get to bath day hahaha

I just found this and had to respond. Seymour smells like potting soil and I think Baldwin smells like a salt, but the hubby says he smells like sweaty balls He does always smell sweaty, but it isn't bad in my opinion. I would say when it is time for a bath he does smell like a sweaty man.
