The sphynx is the most well-known hairless cat.

This small cat is a mix of a sphynx and a munchkin.

Also called the Russian hairless, this cat isn’t the same as the sphynx. It has its special look and origin.

Made from three breeds- Munchkin, American curl, and sphynx- the dwelf is tiny with curled ears and short legs.

Friendly and playful, the elf is a bigger version of the dwelf.

Short legs and little or no hair make the minskins stand out.
