What are Donskoy cats like?
The Donskoy, like the Sphynx and Bambino, is famous for its nearly hairless body (a result of a genetic mutation). Weighing between 6-15 pounds and up to 15 inches in length, they are small, delicate cats. Their coats can be rubber bald, flocked, velour, and brush. Registered Donskoy breeders will have kittens for sale with any colour found in cat skin.
Donskoy cats are known to be loyal and extroverted, whose playful demeanor make them an excellent companion and family pet. When considering a Donskoy for your family, it’s important to note that these cats require more grooming than the average cat due to their lack of fur. They don’t fare well in extreme temperatures and are sensitive to the sun.
FAQs when considering Donskoy cats
How much do Donskoy cats cost?
As a sought-after breed, Donskoy kittens for sale cost between $1,000. A cat’s price is based on its pedigree, coat quality, age, health and vaccination history. If an Donskoy cat’s parents are show-winning, they can be even more expensive.
What should I ask to choose the right Donskoy breeder?
While there are many people who claim to be ethical Donskoy breeders, not all hold a standard that you can feel great about. Asking some relevant questions about their philosophy will ensure you avoid Donskoy breeders that do this only for financial gain, not having the interests of the cats or you in mind. Make sure you ask about:
- Health history of the parents and vaccinations. They should have their first vaccinations by the time they're adopted.
- Whether they've bred their Donskoys with other breeds (they should disclose this and it would make it not a purebred lien.
- Have the socialized the kitten among other kittens?
- Do they belong to a Donskoy breed club? You can ask for references from the club.
Why does it matter if I buy from a registered Donskoy breeder?
When you buy from a registered Donskoy breeder (with either their local club, governing body, or TICA), that ensures that a standard of care and expertise is enforced. You can ask them about a wide range of topics such as the Donskoy’s genealogy, the right kitten for you, common health problems with Donskoys to look out for. We offer additional registration through our Cat Kingpin Certified program as well, although it's not a replacement for other registrations.

I have had two interests since I was very young… the Internet and cats. I grew up with two lovely cats in my family, Midnight and Chloe. But when I started looking for a cat as an adult, I realized how few reliable resources there are for finding ethical breeders. So I combined my Internet skills and cat knowledge to create Cat Kingpin, the #1 resource for cat breeders online. Have a question or suggestion for my list? You can reach me here.
