Ukrainian Levkoy
Overview
The Ukrainian Levkoy is a cat breed of moderate build with a hairless coat. It traces back to Ukraine. It originated as a crossbreed between the Donskoy and Scottish Fold. Its coat usually shows solid gray patterning. Cats commonly live 12–18 years, so this is a long-term commitment.
Is the Ukrainian Levkoy right for you?
A good match if — you want an independent companion that settles into most homes; you want a cat that enjoys being handled and held; you're a first-time cat owner.
Think twice if — you have no time for the grooming this coat needs; you want a wash-and-go pet — hairless skin needs upkeep.
What an Ukrainian Levkoy needs from you
An Ukrainian Levkoy needs a moderate amount of space, daily feeding and litter care, and moderate day-to-day upkeep. With little or no fur, the skin needs regular bathing to manage oils, plus warmth in winter. On closeness, this breed is happy to be handled.
