The tradition Sphinx cat (hairless cat) personality

Their personality has been universally praised across decades and continents for their demeanor. In 1903 one anonymous lover of the Traditional Sphynx wrote, “They are the most intelligent and affectionate family pets I have ever met and the smartest cats I have ever seen.” The French describe them as “part monkey, part dog, part child, and part cat.”
Loyal, closely identifying with their human family, they follow people around, and use their paws like hands. Some say they are more like people than cats. Their spirit is more than temperament or personality. The strength of the Traditional Sphynx is its ability to adapt its personality to fit the desires of its human companions.
They operate out of their intuitive senses rather than instinct. With the clarity and innocence of children, they remarkably know what is really going on in their human environment, regardless of how things actually look. They can take a place as your sidekick, provide all the love and attention a person could desire from a pet, lie on your lap when you are quietly seated, sown an abundance of energy and mischief, comfort you when you are feeling low, be sensitive to your disposition, or romp around when your feeling great.
Loving to be looked at, they perform funny antics for mutual entertainment. Because of their desire to be admired, they are easy to be handled. The Traditional Sphynx exudes intimacy.
Their very nature is to love and be loved by a human being, via the intensity and devotion to their humans. It has been said, “These cats are so interactive, so completely satisfying, entertaining and enchanting that we can’t imagine our lives without them.
In truth these cats are healing by their very nature. They are instant intimacy in a culture in which true intimacy is almost impossible to come by.”
The Traditional Sphynx does not enjoy being an only pet. The company of people, other cats or dogs is their desire.
“They are in reality a gift,” wrote Steve Patterson, “which when experienced to their fullest capacity, show themselves to be nothing less than angels in cats bodies!”
NOW THAT IS ONE HELL OF A SALES PITCH. IM GETTING THAT CAT ASAP

They are really sweet and loving, but get acne if you don't bathe them frequently, and sometimes even if you do.
Also, no cold weather, or hot weather. They get cold too easily, and can have really bad sunburns.
One of , if not the only Canadian breed of cat.

yea sweet animals, but you do have to bath them about once a week, trim nails, and clean ears.
also they are not hypoallergenic despite some people saying so, i love the look of the demon cat.
