Best known as the scary hairless cat of everyone’s nightmares or “that thing” that Rachel brought home on Friends, Sphynx cats are the definition of why someone would not judge a creature based on how it looks. The Sphynx is actually quite docile in nature and great with strangers (with the odd exception, of course).
