Your cats are lovely. Although I share my home primarily with selkirk rex, I also have two sphynx and two munchkins. The sphynx are mine and have completely captured my heart. The munchkins actually belong to someone else and are just visiting for a bit while she is in the process of moving from one state to another. They are both wonderful breeds though.

I hate to see any cat live it's life in a cage. I understand the purpose of caging in a cattery situation, but have personal issues with it, especially with kittens. They need to be handled daily and loved on. They need to run around and explore their environment. That's impossible if they are in a cage 24 hours a day. I do use a cage when my babies are born, but mainly for the safety of the babies. Once they are old enough to start exploring, then we open the cage door and give them run of the nursery. Once they are about 2 months old, we give them run of the house. I've found this works best for us and our babies.

The difference between a bambino and a minskin is very simple. A bambino is from a sphynx/munchkin hybridization. There should be no other breeds used to create this breed. Bambino's are supposed to be hairless and short. A minskin uses the sphynx/burmese/munchkin hybridization. They should be "fur-pointed", not hairless. This is a completely new type of coat. They are pretty neat cats too. A friend of mine has been working with the owner of the cat who's photo you posted for the past year or so on this breed. I can't attach a photo but I can attach the link to a website that has some.

This is a new breed that is still in the developmental stages.
