Follow these essential guidelines for responsible Sphynx cat breeding
Male Sphynx Cats (Studs)
18 months to 7 years
Female Sphynx Cats (Queens)
18 months to 6 years
Sphynx cats mature slowly. Wait until full maturity for best health outcomes in offspring.
Sphynx cats require extensive health testing due to their unique physiology and genetic predispositions.
Queens: Maximum 2 litters per year, 3-4 litters lifetime
Minimum 6-8 months between litters
Sphynx queens need extra recovery time due to higher metabolic demands. Quality over quantity is essential.
Breeding Sphynx cats requires commitment to their unique care needs. Ensure all potential owners understand these requirements:

Comprehensive health screening is critical for maintaining Sphynx breed health and managing their unique medical needs
MANDATORY annual echocardiogram screening for all breeding cats. HCM is the most serious concern in Sphynx cats. Genetic testing available for some HCM mutations. Select from HCM-clear bloodlines. Remove affected cats from breeding immediately.
Regular bathing (weekly) essential to prevent oil buildup and skin infections. Monitor for urticaria pigmentosa (skin mastocytosis). Select breeding cats with healthy skin. Educate owners about proper skin care routines.
Sphynx cats are prone to severe dental issues including gingivitis and tooth loss. Regular dental cleanings MANDATORY. Select for good tooth alignment. Daily tooth brushing recommended. Start dental care from kittenhood.
Upper respiratory infections more common in Sphynx kittens due to lack of protective fur. Maintain warm nursery environment (75-80°F). Strict hygiene protocols. Early veterinary intervention for any respiratory symptoms.
Genetic muscle disorder specific to Sphynx and Devon Rex. Causes muscle weakness. Genetic testing available. Both parents must test negative. Affected cats show symptoms by 12-20 weeks of age.
Hairless skin extremely vulnerable to UV damage. Indoor-only lifestyle essential. Use pet-safe sunscreen if sun exposure unavoidable. Monitor for any skin changes or growths. White and light-colored cats at highest risk.
Higher body temperature (4°F warmer than other cats) requires climate control. Provide warm bedding and clothing in cold weather. Monitor for hypothermia in kittens. Ensure proper environmental temperature year-round.
Higher metabolism requires more frequent feeding. Some Sphynx have sensitive stomachs. Document dietary needs in breeding lines. Select for robust digestive health. Avoid sudden diet changes.
Lack of hair in ears leads to excessive wax production. Weekly ear cleaning essential. Risk of ear infections if neglected. Teach owners proper ear care techniques from the start.
Lack of eyelashes can cause increased eye discharge. Daily eye cleaning recommended. Monitor for corneal damage. Select breeding cats with proper eye conformation.
Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (HCM) is the leading cause of death in Sphynx cats.
Mandatory protocols:
NO EXCEPTIONS: Breeding without HCM screening is unethical and endangers the breed's future.
Time Commitment: Daily maintenance routines take 30-60 minutes
Financial Commitment: Higher food costs, regular vet visits, special supplies
Environmental Commitment: Climate control, indoor-only lifestyle
Social Commitment: Sphynx cats need constant companionship
Screen potential owners carefully - many underestimate the care requirements of hairless cats.
