Thanks for the pointers. Considering my first cat now that I'm retired, although my wife grew up with a cat so she's a bit more familiar.

They are not laid back, my ragdoll was go, go, go, and he hated being picked up, and he didn't go limp, a bit when he was relaxed but he was wound up and would not stay still, they need plenty of space outside, for exploring, very active!🎉🎉

Sphinx cat aren’t recommended for people with allergies. They still make the proteins that people are allergic to.
