It’s a Sphynx! It’s a Munchkin! No wait, it’s a Sphynchkin! As popular and notable as Sphynx and Munchkin cats can be, have you ever thought about what they would look like combined?
Meet the Dwelf: they are small in stature but have a whole lot of personality behind those stubby little legs.
If you are thinking they look a bit Egyptian, you might be onto something.
As they love attention no matter the source, Dwelfs are absolutely fine with other pets, as well as with kids.
Their body constantly builds up oils and dirt, which settles on the skin, especially between the wrinkles. Because of this, it is recommended to bathe them at least once a week, to help get rid of the grime.
As a general note, the short ones are not fussy with food and they don’t need any special foods or minerals to thrive.
While these cuties don’t shed any hair, the allergies are still present in their saliva. The main trouble-causer is the Fel D1 protein.
They are very playful, social, and love being around people. Get them playing with an assortment of different toys and games.
