Breeds of cats: Ukrainian lewk

Ukrainian lefkova is the first breed, developed by Ukrainian felinologists, in particular Elena Biryukova. She already had an idea for a long time to create an ideal cat that would not cause allergies in people, would be playful, active and friendly. Well, the Ukrainian gillyflowers are completely suitable for this description!

A breed of Ukrainian lefthander in many can cause sympathy or disgust. After all, this naked cat with hanging ears is not alwayshas a reputation among lovers of these graceful animals. But even so, Ukrainian gillyflowers are very popular, because their excretion was aimed primarily at human needs.

Ukrainian gilly-owl is often called a dog-like cat. This has its own explanation, because the body and headthese animals are very similar in structure to canine. At the same time it is worth noting the mobility and love for the games of these animals. Therefore, we can safely assume that the Ukrainian lewka is a breed of cats, created for people who will pay maximum attention to their pets.

Like all kittens, Lions are born with a short down. But here's the further development of kittens at the rootdiffers from the usual for us all. Very often the kittens of gillyflowers open their eyes already on the first day of their birth. Fluffy kittens quickly develop and begin to gradually grow bald. Completely the cat becomes bald at the age of two years. But it should also be noted that some specimens of the breed remain with a light down until the end of their lives.

Various Ukrainian cat breeds were used to breed Ukrainian gillyflowers, including the Scottish Fold. Levkoy in the litter can have lop-eared kittens, and with erect ears. To preserve the health of the breed, kittens with straight ears are of great importance, so they are used for breeding. But they are no longer allowed to attend exhibitions. But on the other hand, these gilly-owls are much cheaper than their lop-eared fellows.

A cat with a loin does not require careful care. She does not have wool, so you will not have herto comb out for a long time. However, Ukrainian gilly-beans will have to bathe from time to time or wipe once a week with a damp towel. And the whole point is that the Ukrainian sweatshop is sweating. And what did you want at a body temperature of 42 ° C and the inborn mobility of a cat? But in any case, make sure that there are no drafts in the apartment. In the cold season, special warming clothing will be needed for gillyflowers. And in the summer try not to allow the cat to lie in the sun for a long time. Their tender skin can burn, like a person.

To care for the body of a cat, you can use any cat shampoo or even a neutral shower gel. Baby soap, by the way, is also suitable for bathing cats. In all other respects, caring for a cat is reduced only to cleaning the ears, eyes and pruning claws from time to time.

You should pay attention to cat food. Ukrainian lewkom eats a variety of food. But because of the accelerated metabolism, which allows cats to maintain the desired body temperature, animals eat often and a lot. Therefore, the cat will have to feed often enough.

Appearance of the breed

Ukrainian levka has a unique appearance. The structure of the skull of a cat is very similar to a canine,so do not be surprised at the angularity and elongation of the head, which is not inherent in the cat family. True, like all cats, levkoey has large, almond-shaped slanted eyes. The eye color for the breed is allowed by anyone, but preference is given to a saturated blue or green color. The ears of the lefties, although hanging, are not the same as those of the Scottish folds. At the British lop ears at the base they press themselves to the head. But at the left-handed ears are erect, and only the tips are bent forward and down.

The body of the Ukrainian gillyflower is strong, muscular and slightly short. Paws are long and strong, with graceful fingers. The tail is long and very flexible, evenly tapering to the tip. The left-wingers strongly manifest sexual dimorphism, therefore cats are much smaller than cats.
