    do you really think cats like this happen by accident? hairless cats have a mutation that prevents them from growing a coat. you have to admit it’s a special kind of sick mind that breeds hairless cats in canada lol (where these breeds were started). they’re also more likely to have skin cancer issues and early life respiratory issues.

    I look at it like pugs and frenchies - victims of animal abuse by breeders who don’t care about the actual quality of life the animal has, only about profiting on their sale.

      I wouldn’t blame anyone who thought this happened by accident. Evolution is capable of some amazing (and amazingly fucked up) things.

      Hairless cats have always kinda freaked me out, though. At least now I can disguise my ignorant revulsion as an ethical issue, though, so thanks!

        ok. you do you. hairlessness is pretty rare in the animal kingdom - hair confers so many advantages, from reducing uv exposure to insulation and style baby, er, camouflage. the people who bred these cats to be this way took generations of selective breeding, and probably in-breeding, to get this specific look.

        I think treating animals this way is fucking sick, and cruel. Like I said - you do you.

            hairless ape

            man I wish I could save money on shampoo and barbers but ‘hairless ape’ is only hairless by comparison. think they meant completely hairless, like alopecia? or is it just a figure of speech?

            hmmmm… I’ll let you figure it out on your own time.

          Humans are basically hairless. Are we inbred?

          I was asking for data, research, not emotion.
