About the Minskin

The Minskin is a rare, experimental breed of cat that is a cross between the Munchkin (for short legs) and the Sphynx (for hairlessness), with further outcrosses to Devon Rex and Burmese. It is characterized by its dwarfism, primarily hairless body with fur points, and large ears and eyes. This small, affectionate, and playful breed is known for its social, dog-like personality and its need for warmth and indoor living.
