My wife and I like to adopt exotic, high-maintenance cats from people who didn't know what they were getting into and get overwhelmed. We've stuck to Bengals and Savannah Cats until now, but we've always wanted a Sphynx, and we found one. His owner didn't really realize how much care that breed needs, and didn't have the capacity to do it, so we took him. His name is Kevin and he looks like a tiny raw turkey. The other cats already love him.

Skin care especially. They're the only cat breed that gets acne.
