60 Superb Sphynx Cat Tattoos

Would you get a hairless cat?

It’s hard to believe that sphynx cats, a breed of cat known for their lack of fur, originated in one of the coldest countries on the planet—Canada! That’s right, the sphynx first came to be in Toronto, Canada after a hairless cat named Prune was born to a black and white domestic shorthair in 1966. The cats began being bred from there and now are one of the most beloved breeds in the world. For those who adore these unique felines, sphynx cat tattoos are a perfect way to celebrate their affection for this distinctive and captivating breed.

Sphynx cats come in a variety of colors and markings, such as solid, point and tabby. Their skin is also described as feeling similar to Chamois leather and despite being hairless, these cats do require maintenance from their owners. Because they don’t have fur, their skin often has excess oil that requires regular bathing. Additionally, they also have a hard time preserving body heat without fur, therefore their owners often provide them with sweaters in cold weather and are never left outside in cold weather unattended. And despite lacking hair, many people with cat allergies are still allergic to sphynx cats.

Sphynx cats are an exceptionally desirable breed, particularly among celebrities. Celebrity sphynx enthusiasts include Steven Tyler, Lady Gaga, Jeff Goldblum and Kat Von D. Many films and television shows have also featured hairless cats, notably “Friends,” “Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery,” “Lady MacBeth” and “The Secret Life of Pets.”

Take a look at 60 of our favorite tattoos of sphynx cats. Then let us know your favorite tattoo on this list in the comments section on social media.
