Feeding a Sphynx: the honest notes

🐾

Hairless cats burn extra calories just staying warm: Sphynx cats typically eat more than coated cats of the same weight.

🐾

Expect a big appetite and don't panic — feed to body condition, and expect visible ribs on a healthy Sphynx.

🐾

Their skin gets oily: higher-quality, digestible food often means less grease on the couch.

These are breed tendencies, not a prescription. For the actual amount, the calculator uses your pet's real body weight and life stage — the same veterinary formula vets use.
