Summary
About Sphynx
The Sphynx is a medium, muscular, mostly hairless cat with suede‑like skin and visible wrinkles. Highly sociable “velcro” cats, they crave constant company, play, and warmth. They need regular skin, ear, and nail cleaning and do best as indoor pets with attentive owners.
About Thai
The Thai is a moderate, old-style Siamese with a muscular medium build, blue eyes, and low-maintenance pointed coat. Social, vocal, and intelligent, it craves daily interaction, play, and climbing. Generally healthy, it may face PRA, HCM, and dental issues, so regular vet care is important.
