Nudacris has stolen the hearts of many TikTokers who view his videos daily. Along with his fellow sphynx sister, Khaleesi Nude and brother Boris Naked, and furred sister Kitty Koture, they keep their human Lisa Holder on her toes and never bored.

The Blast had the opportunity to speak to Holder exclusively about her beloved cats, where Nudacris got his cool name from, and why he's always acting crazy in the TikTok videos she shares.

Nudacris Is A Baby With A Wild Personality

Nudacris is just a baby, but he's certainly got an interesting personality already and that shines through in all his videos. "We got him on July 2. He's a baby," Holder said. "He's a big guy, but he's a baby." Holder's other two sphynx cats grew up together and are now 6-years-old. When Nudacris joined the family, things got a big hectic for the whole household. But it's not something anyone would want to change.

Before Holder got Nudacris, she was able to watch the breeder's videos of him. She noticed that he was a bit on the crazy side, but that didn't deter her or her husband one bit. They knew what they were getting with who she calls her "little terrorist." She also lovingly refers to him as a "drunk 2-year-old."

His name is something most people notice immediately and comment on often. Everyone loves his trendy name. "My husband called him Nuda, and I said I love Ludacris, so that's where Nudacris came from," she said. "The name fits him well."

Nudacris Loves To Start Trouble With The Other Cats In The House

Nudacris' TikTok followers get to really experience his personality and they love every second of it. He's often seen sneaking up on the other cats and starting some sort of trouble. "My girl sphynx is kind and sweet and Nudacris tests her nerves," Holder said. "He really loves to get on the other cats' backs or corner them. He will jump into the robot litter box when another cat is in there and that's unheard of in cat world."

And while Nudacris is often seen running or causing some kind of hilarious trouble, he also has a snuggling, loving side. "They snuggle in blankets and all three of them sleep with me under the blanket," she said. "Boris sleeps under my arm, Khaleesi sleeps at my feet and Nudacris on the other side."

The Family Has Always Been A Fan Of The Breed

Holder and her husband have always loved the sphynx breed so six years ago they got Khaleesi and shortly after they added Boris to their family. Fast forward to earlier this year, they added their third, and final for a while, sphynx to the family. "We're not getting another one anytime soon, but one day I'll have more," she said.

Sphynx cats are a higher maintenance breed and need some special treatment. "They get baths every week and have to have their ears cleaned out because there is no hair," she said. "You have to make sure they don't sit in a sunny spot so they don't get sunburned." And while many sphynx cats wear clothes more often than not, Holder and her family live in Florida so sweaters and clothing aren't often needed for her cats. Nudacris did dress up for Halloween but wasn't particularly excited about the experience.

The Three Sphynx Cats Get A Lot Of Attention Online And Out In Public

The sphynx breed is known for being spunky and active, and Nudacris understood that assignment and took it to a new level. Holder thinks he may calm down a bit on his menacing acts once he gets neutered next week, but only time will tell. And while he's a bit on the crazy side and usually stalking someone, the house loves him and he loves everyone. The three sphynx siblings go everywhere with their humans. "They love the car," she said. "They get pup cups at Starbucks. They get a lot of attention when we are out because they are naked."

Holder posted her first TikTok video in September 2021 and never imagined it would become what it is now. She has more than 38,000 followers who love seeing the trouble Nudacris is getting into in each video. "I never would have thought TikTok would take off the way it did," she said. "I think it's his name and his personality." Holder tries to post daily, sometimes up to three videos a day depending on what's going on in the house. "I'm constantly carrying my phone around to video Nudacris," she said. "He's a menace around the house. He was literally hanging from the refrigerator a few hours ago."

In one recent video, Holder tells Nudacris that The Blast featured him in a story. The video is captioned, "We just found out that somebody from the blast.com wrote a nice little article about my baby Nudacris! We found the article today online!" During the conversation, Nudacris was showing his sweet, cuddly side.
