Which cat breed is right for you?
The Bambino is a relatively new designer breed created by crossing the Sphynx with the Munchkin, resulting in a hairless cat with short legs. This small breed weighs just 5–9 pounds and has the characteristic wrinkled, nearly hairless skin of the Sphynx combined with the Munchkin's shortened limbs. Their skin comes in all colors and patterns, and they may have a fine peach-fuzz covering.
Bambinos are outgoing, affectionate, and surprisingly energetic despite their short legs — they love to run, play, and explore. They are extremely social cats that crave human contact and will curl up under blankets or on laps for warmth. They get along well with children, dogs, and other cats, making them lively and entertaining companions.

The Turkish Van is a rare, naturally occurring breed from the Lake Van region of eastern Turkey, renowned as the "swimming cat" for its unusual love of water. This is a large, muscular cat weighing 10–18 pounds with a semi-long, cashmere-like single coat that is water-resistant and dries remarkably fast. The classic Van pattern features a predominantly chalk-white body with colored markings limited to the head and tail — typically in red, cream, black, blue, or tortoiseshell — though solid white and fully colored Vans also exist.
Turkish Vans are energetic, independent, and famously fond of water — they may join you in the shower, play in the toilet, or splash in their water bowl. Intelligent and athletic, they love to climb, jump, and play vigorously. They bond closely with their family but can be selective about being held — they prefer to be near you rather than in your lap.
