The Sphynx cat is a hairless, long-legged, long-tailed cat. The Sphynx breed as we know it today can be traced back to the original bloodlines from two kittens born naturally in Toronto Canada.
The Bambino cat is a hairless, short-legged, long-tailed cat. The Bambino breed was founded in 2005. The Bambino is the purposeful breeding between the Sphynx cat and the Munchkin cat which is a breed of cat with the natural, spontaneously occurring gene for short legs.

The Minskin is a new breed of cat with short legs and fur points-that is fur on the face, ears, nose, legs and tail. The body skin may have sparse hair covering or a Rex Coat (wavy coat). They can be both short legged ie., Minskin, or regular leg length ie., Teddy Rex Minskin. This breed is amazingly social, vey low maintenance, hardy little breed, easy to care for and even easier to fall in love with.
