It's been difficult to get decent shots of Livvy, but today it finally happened.
First are both of them in the bathroom window -- the spot de rigueur. (Probably because it faces the orchard, and you can sunbathe, all at the same time!)
The others were taken in quick succession, she doesn't sit in one place long and will generally still hide in a sleeping bag or in the cat tree holes.
I hope you enjoy.
There wasn't a lot of PP, so they have a bit of a green tinge from sunlight coming through the plants.
(And never mind the bathroom window. 3 cats = lots of noses on glass.)

I very much enjoyed seeing these two beautiful and unique bathing beauties!!! Such gorgeous eyes, big ears and I'm sure wonderful personalities!!
Don't they chew that grassy plant???

That's actually what it's there for. It's Cat Grass. None of them touch it lol. So at some point I'll "mow" it and give it to the horses.
Livvy is very shy, but the biggest cuddlebug you can imagine, once she chills a little bit.
Jezebel is a rebel without a clue. She may yet be renamed again, to Voodoo, or Nemesis, or Trouble, or Mischief. :)
Pixie, who isn't in the pics, is very much into people. She looooooves people.
I adopted Jez and Livvy a little over a week ago, to keep my lone Sphynx company.
Alas... so far we've had a lot of hissing, growling and some battles.
There's a lot of "Time Out" for them, until they start to accept each other.

You must laugh and cuss a lot during the day, but they are beautiful in their own way!! I had 7 cats, none like yours, now down to 3, but they would chew any plant they were near... never thought to get them their own!! Hope they all learn to get along, nothing worse than hearing cat fights during the night!!
Take care and I loved seeing your babies!!

Livvy still needs a few more ear cleanings, I don't think she's ever been done before, judging by the state of the inside. (Sphynx ears need regular cleaning.)
None of them go near any of my plants. Pixie doesn't even go near human food, but Jezebel is a little thief, and Livvy is an opportunist. No more leaving chickens to cool on the counter, unattended... (With Pixie that's not a problem.)
It's funny, people always go "ewww" when you say you have a naked cat.
Then they meet one...and it's "omg so soft / snuggly / sweet etc etc"
Case in point, we were at the vets today. I only meant to take Pixie for a checkup and vaccination, as well as get her teary eyes looked at. Well, Jez still had stitches in from being neutered, and it's been at least 4 weeks. So I took her along. Just as well, because she has an ear infection.
The vet assistant clearly had never met a Sphynx - and suddenly there were two of them. She was completely entranced. :)
Getting pictures of those two girls is a challenge, for sure.
And at night... no fighting cats. I take one (or two) with me, and the other(s) sleep in the other room. Otherwise I'd die from sleep deprivation lol.

I sounds like they are three pampered kitties and you must enjoy every minute with them!!! I would love to be able to adope one, but for now I'm down from 7 to 3 and my dog and that's plenty... but maybe one day!!!
If ever I closed my bedroom door on them they'd be outside crying up a storm and banging against the door... so they would all crowd only my side of the bed. Now that 2 more have passed, only my Andrew sleeps on my pillow and annoys the heck out of me!! LOL!!1

Nice set, but #3 is a stunner. Very unique looking breed. You should get a Mexican Hairless dog or two to go with them.
