Аbout breed
The Canadian sphynx - a cat in style Nu.
The word "sphynx" possesses special magic: it causes associations of pyramids, sand, mysticism of ancient Egypt. The cat-sphynx is too magic, but real. She is a cat-figurine. These are soft lines of a body, absolute harmony and a sight of green eyes directly in heart. It not the cat, is poetry. The sphynx cannot be named a cat, this essence which has come to us from other planet.
The Canadian sphynxes - very intellectual, alive and playful breed. They are extremely friendly and always in mood to communicate.
