The Merry Adventures of Toupee the Cat

pew pew pew!

Today is Toupee's first birthday. He did not enjoy this party hat that I made him.

All up on my shoulders like he owns the joint.

Happy Holidays.

For the first few months that I had Toupee, I actually lived in a household that included a Great Dane, a Black Lab, and a potential German Shepard/Corgi mix (which is a best guess). He was introduced to them little-by-little, and always did fine. By the time we struck out on our own, he was freely roaming my parents' house and interacting with the dogs. Very social. We also have another cat, who's a little on the old side and a bit of a curmudgeon, who never seemed to care for the new feline in town.As for whether they're dog-like... I find it hard to give a definite answer, as I've only had one other cat, who I also consider to have a lot of dog-like mannerisms. Toupee is certainly more attention-seeking and social than the stereotypical image of an isolationist cat, which is usually sited as a big difference in the demeanor of cats and dogs. I dunno'.I'm also not completely sure about anything you should know, although I can recommend using google as your friend and reading up on the care specific to Sphynx cats, as well as things concerning their general health risks and needs as a breed. Of course, if you find that you have any specific questions that I might be able to answer, please feel free to ask. I'll do my best!

I am so sorry that I've taken so long in getting back to this! Work got kind of crazy due to our holiday program, and I am crud at remember internet-errands.My family currently lives half an hour or so east of Raleigh, in Zebulon.Aaaaand. Toupee has had litter box issues that don't have much to do with traveling, as they were present before we left the states. He will sometimes pee on the bed, for whatever reason. This could be unfortunately attributed to lots of causes, most of which are kind of hard to rule out, outside of making sure he's medically healthy. He is, so... It might be anxiety, being finicky about his littler box, etc.I've recently set up an extra litter box for him, and his habit has become to use one for urination and the other for deification, and it has thus far kept him from soiling the sheets.

Anyway, now I'm back in Korea, and I like to hang out and take pictures of nakey-butt. I'm happy to hear that you will soon know the joy of these wrinkly wonders. I'd love to know more about your experience as it unfolds, as well.
