This is still a dog, a child and a monkey in one person. With its totally unique appearance Sphynx received many names. This cat-orchid, and a cat-shock, and a cat-alien, Pharaonic cat and a moon cat. The main features of the Canadian sphynx in his thick skin, devoid of fur, which is collected in many folds, and large inquisitive eyes, big ears and a hot body.
Can not say that the Canadian Sphynx completely devoid of hair, because his skin is covered with short little fuzz, through which the Canadian Sphynx seem to touch suede. Also a little hair is present on the nose, ears, paws and tip of tail. Thus, on your furniture and clothes will never be the wool that is especially important for allergies. More... |

And what rex differ from Sphynx? Answers to the last two questions are not so obvious. The average domestic cat, like most other animals, has three types of coat: long, hard coat, a little softer thick beard and a soft downy undercoat. Each hair grows from the hair bulb. Onion nourish the blood vessels so that hair can not develop normally, they are suitable nerve endings (in other cats could not raise the hair on end). In addition, the wool needs to be lubricated, which provide a gland lying in the skin. Due to the dye, pigment, grains which are arranged in a special way in her hair, cats have a particular color. All variety of external features and the degree of their expression, as related to the structure of wool (the presence of all three components, the absence or drastic change any of them and their relationship to each other), as well as color, are hereditary. |

Mutation - a random abrupt change in the genetic material (ie the number or structure of DNA) which is transmitted to the offspring. Mutations can be chromosomal or point, gene. Chromosome - due to a change in the number or structure of chromosomes, and gene - in the structure of the gene. Mutations are indifferent, helpful or harmful to their carrier (as well as breeder: it often depends on their success in breeding). Lethal - lead to the death of the organism in the early stages of its development (eg, death on the stage embryos). Some mutations cause hereditary abnormalities have been born or even a certain age animals. Some of these anomalies do not interfere with the body to live, while others cause disease and, alas, can result in death. Naturally, those manufacturers. Which have a genetic basis undesirable manifestations, must be put out of breeding. |

It can be understood as a law, and as image of an ideal animal. As standards are included typical vices animal. Drawback - a slight deviation from the standard (say, a shade of eye color, what is necessary). For the shortcomings generally removed a certain number of points in the judging. Eastern Promises - a strong departure from turning into a physical deformity. Animals with defects fall under the term "disqualification" and removed from the judging. However, not being able to participate in breeding, they can be a great house cat, the darling of the family. More... |

When he grew older, he crossed with his own mother. In a communication received from him a litter were hairless and normal kittens. With further dilution was used as a close inbreeding: Prune back as a mate with his daughters and a granddaughter. The result was obtained for some livestock hairless cats, two main types, differing characteristics of the constitution. In 60-70-ies of XX century CFA has established interim standards for the new breed of cats. However, breeding cattery began under an unlucky star: received a small population proved to be unviable, and in 1971 this standard has been destroyed. Kittens are born weak, sickly and often died; breeding cattery in nurseries clearly failed. Breed "fell apart" on a number of morphological characters, while the hypothesis was accepted that the hairless associated with sex, which subsequently was not confirmed. More... |

Breeders, feline always tried to use the chance given them by nature. The result is a wonderful cat-sphinxes. Canadian Sphynx - very popular breed of cats. First, due to their original appearance. Secondly, these cats have a curious, but calm character. And because of unusual comparisons, because they are called moon cats, and sometimes hint at their extraterrestrial origin. It is difficult to imagine that just recently, a few decades ago, such a breed simply did not exist. History of Sphynx started in 1978, picked up on the street with a hairless kitten. Unexpectedly, genetic defect, deprived of his coat, began to dignity, which now boasts an entire breed. More... |

![]() Monday, 02 May 2011 12:30 Голые кошки – пожалуй, самое необычное словосочетание! У большинства людей кошка ассоциируется с мягким пушистым существом. Однако упоминания о голых (бесшерстных) кошках встречались ещё в древние времена в разных уголках нашей планеты. В Древнем Египте обожествляли этих животных и украшали храмы фигурками кошек. Так же голые кошки, жили в храмах ацтеков. Считалось, что они являются посредниками между богами и людьми. Совершенно точно известно, что в начале 20 века голые кошки водились в Мексике, Марокко, Индии. Но не было попыток создать новую породу и бесшерстные кошки постепенно исчезли.
Начало породы Канадских сфинксов относят к 1966 году, когда в Канаде (Онтарио) среди помета обычной домашней кошки родился бесшерстный котёнок. Однако попытки стабилизировать породу оказались неудачными. Но в 1975 году в г. Вадене (Миннесота) родился голый котенок, названный Эпидермисом, а спустя год у той же кошки родилась голенькая девочка. Эти двое животных и стали основателями новой породы Канадские сфинксы. В конце 70х в Торонто были найдены три голых котенка, две девочки и котик. К сожалению, котик нуждался в серьезном лечении и не смог стать родоначальником породы. А кошечек отправили в Голландию, где они стали основателями европейского стандарта породы. Впервые Канадские сфинксы, как новая порода была представлена в Париже в 1984 году. Канадские сфинксы имеют видимость голой кошки. Кожа на ощупь от нежной персиковой бархатистости до полной бесшерстности. Небольшое опушение на лапках, наружной стороне ушей, мошонке, хвосте, на переносице. Кожа толстая, складчатая. Хвост длинный, тонкий, гибкий. Тело сфинкса тяжелое мускулистое с широкой грудью и полным округлым животиком. Уши от больших до очень больших. Широкие в основании, открытые и прямостоячие. Внешний край основания уха должен совпадать с линией глаз, и их расположение не должно быть ни низким, ни слишком высоким. Внутренняя часть ушей без шерсти. Глаза большие, формы лимона, широко посажены, расстояние между ними как минимум равняется размеру глаз. Цвет глаз может быть любым. Форма головы - модифицированный клин с выраженными скулами и подушечками усов (вискасами). Допускаются любые окрасы. Канадские сфинксы с каждым днем завоевывают все больше симпатий и не только любителей кошек. Многие кто прежде был равнодушен к кошкам вообще, увидев и пообщавшись с Канадскими сфинксами, навсегда влюбились в этих необыкновенных животных! Котята Канадских сфинксов очень подвижные, игривые, ласковые. Но в отличие от других пород Канадский сфинкс сохраняет свою игривость на всю жизнь, а более ласкового кота найти очень непросто! Плюсом Канадских сфинксов является то, что уход за этой породой минимален! В зависимости от того насколько животное испачкалось его можно искупать или обтереть влажной детской салфеткой. Один или два раза в неделю вытирают тампоном, смоченным специальным лосьоном для животных, глаза и ушки. Существует мнение, что от Канадских сфинксов не бывает аллергии. Это не совсем так. Если у Вас аллергия на шерсть, тогда вы в безопасности, но бывает аллергия на различные выделения: пот, слюну, запахи. Так что прежде чем приобретать сфинкса поверьте себя, посетите питомник, пообщайтесь с животными. И ещё. Канадские сфинксы очень контактные животные, любят общение, им необходимо быть рядом с человеком, они очень скучают в одиночестве. Канадские сфинксы будут отдавать Вам свою любовь каждый день всю свою жизнь. Отвечайте им тем же!
