Hairless cats do have certain health risks and need to be bathed regularly (once a week)
In general I would advise you to not buy a specific breed, as they are more expensive and have more health problems than a general “house car” from the shelter
From what I read, breeding Sphynx cats is illegal in the EU or at least the Netherlands. They have a higher risk of skin cancer and the lack of whiskers comes with issues.
I like Sphynx kitties, I think they’re cute, but I’m not sure how healthy it is for the breed?

keep in mind it does still require regular oil changes
Wow, just think about a home big enough that one needs a ‘house car’.
SCNR.
Yeah, but a lot of people with a hairless cat have one because they want a cat but are allergic. For them a rescue isn’t really an option.
For anyone who doesn’t have a good reason to need a particular breed of dog/cat, get a rescue instead.

100% recommend a sphynx. Out of all the cats I’ve had in my life it was my favorite.
