Cat Breed Of The Day - Peterbald \ stacker news ~Animal

pull down to refresh

Ooooo noooo....this is not a cat :) I've never seen a cat like this.

After a little internet searching I found these:

Another name for this species is the "St. Petersburg Sphinx". A young breed of cat, derived from the crossing of Oriental cats, Don Sphynxes and Siamese. The Peretbald is unusual not only for its distinctive coat - or lack thereof - but also for its character. Although the breed is still in the breeding phase

Despite being a young breed, we find some interesting things about it:

The result of an experiment: A Russian cat breeder, Olga S. Mironova, mated a Don Sphynx, Affinguen Myth, and an Oriental Shorthair, Radma Vöm Jagerhof, and this is how she was born Peterbaid
Peterbalds can be more than just bald: chamois, flock, brush, straight
Unfortunately not hypoallergenic
Eats more than the average cat
One of the most expensive cat breeds

Oh my god such a pretty cat. Thank you for sharing

This one is a first for me too. Kind of like a smaller much smaller young lion
