Proud To Be a Sphynx

I'm the smoothest cat in town
No fur, no fleas just peachy down.
I wear my wrinkly skin with pride
For I’m unique and dignified.
I am a Sphynx cat breed mutation,
A furless, feline aberration,
It’s who I am and I don’t care
If my appearance makes you stare.
For I’m at home in my loose skin 
And beauty comes from deep within.
My mistress loves me, I love her;
I warm her lap, she makes me purr!
