The Peterbald

The Peterbald cat comes from Russia. In 1988, the first cat with a coat completely unlike other cats was discovered in the city of Rostov, called the Don Sphynx cat. Then they were exported to European countries for a short period. By 1994, the Oriental Shorthair was bred with Don Sphynx. The result was a new breed of cat called the Peterbald.
