DONSKOY, DON SPHYNX

Russia

Medium sized cat. It is well muscled.

This cat is characterized by its dress practically hairless. It must be elastic and have many folds, especially on the head, armpits, neck and belly.

There are three varieties of Donskoy:

- Bare whose skin is smooth and elastic with a touch that evokes a little rubber. Fluff is then agreed on the muzzle, ears, feet, genitals and the tip of the tail.

- Velvet where the skin is covered with a very short down, sometimes barely visible, which evokes chamois.

- The brush where the hair is short, curly and hard. All coat colors of eyes are permitted.

The whiskers, if any, must be worn

The donskoy is an active cat, affectionate and intelligent. He is very sociable with humans as well as animals. It is extremely close to man and can not stand alone.

Always curious of all, it's a race to the extroverted temperament that explores everything and everywhere, constantly exploring its environment. The Donskoy Sphynx shares with the characteristic of much sweat. It requires that bathes once a week.

All coat colors are allowed. The eyes are large and spaced. Their color is consistent with that of the dress
