The Sphynx is not completely brave compared to other popular breeds. It is covered in a very thin layer of peaches which gives them that chamois-rind flavor when they reach adulthood. The underside is colored and patterned, like feathers. Their male body is clearly visible through their fine fur. Adult Sphynxes weigh between 8 and 15 pounds. It has a long, pointed tail which is difficult to touch. The Sphynx cat has disproportionately large, wide ears that are placed close together to create swelling on the head. They have lemon-shaped eyes that match their skin tone.
