Traits

Hairless, aka Sphynx, is a gene that causes a cat to have little to no hair on their bodies. "Peach fuzz" around the extremities, particularly the nose bridge, is common.

A cat who presents Hairless should have 80% or more baldness/skin showing. For partial baldness, see Lykoi.

Additionally, Hairless has a unique interaction with Rex fur. Although more uncommon than Rex fur, Hairless will present over Rex fur when both are present. A cat with Rex and Hairless is allowed a larger variation in baldness, but must be at least 50% bald.

Examples:

• ReRe: Normal fur
• hrhr: Hairless
• rehr: Hairless, carrying the Rex gene.
