Ukrainian Levkoy - Cat Breed

Complete Guide to the Ukrainian Levkoy

The Ukrainian Levkoy is a highly unique, deeply affectionate, and completely striking breed developed in Ukraine by crossing the hairless Donskoy with the Scottish Fold. They possess a sleek, hairless body, highly distinct folded ears, and are a fascinating, wildly popular cat breed in Eastern Europe.

Temperament and Care

The Levkoy forms an incredibly intense, clingy bond with their family, possessing a loud, demanding voice and a highly dog-like demeanor. Quirky, alien-inspired cat names are very fitting. Owning a Levkoy requires a massive commitment to specialized pet care: their skin requires regular bathing, moisturizing, and absolute protection from sunburn and cold. They are also prone to severe cartilage issues from the Fold gene.

Is the Ukrainian Levkoy Right for You?

• Pros: Highly unique folded ears and hairless body, deeply devoted, and exceptionally intelligent.
