The Sphynx (also known as Canadian Hairless or Mexican Hairless) is a rare breed of cat known for its lack of a coat.
The pictures of hairless cats come to us from ancient time proving that this natural mutation has occurred from time to time on the past. The contemporary breed of sphynx (known also as the Canadian sphynx, distinct from the Russian sphynx breeds - Peterbald, Don Sphynx) started in 1966, when in Toronto, Canada a hairless kitten named Prune was born. It was crossed with its mother, which produced one more naked kitten. Together with a few naked kittens found later it became the primogenitor of the breed.
