I was sent this link in my email of a hairless kitten. I shreaked like a little girl when I saw it. For some reason, it braught back bad memories of watching ET or something, but I am going to have to sleep with my light on. http://www.sanspelo.com/3%20Images/Placed/a%20Punch2.jpg
You want something even worse? Last week at the PetSmart in Lancaster, PA, we saw a hairless guinea pig. That has got to be worse.
Little guy must be cold… I wonder whether the changes in skin colour are where his fir would change coour if he had any…?
Aww, Mini-Mr. Bigglesworth. 
awww…he is so cute. I just want to knit him a little sweater. That is if I could knit.
But how does he keep his balance without whiskers? 
My cats frequently chew off each other’s whiskers.
Oh heavens, it’s just a Sphynx. Granted, the kitten doesn’t look much like a kitten, but it’s still kind of cute. Sort of like a little baby alien. Plus, that breed is supposed to be extremely affectionate.
hhhhrachellllllllll
Um…
¿Que?

It’s not a cat!

Okay, so hairlessness isn’t to everyone’s taste in a pet, but think of all the hair you won’t have to vacuum up. Anyway, most hairless breeds such as Sphynx cats, rat terriers, Mexican xolos, etc., aren’t really hairless- they have a sort of super-fine ultra-suede kind of hair. It feels really neat. But they can get sunburnt, and they do feel the cold more than their more hirsute brethren.

Hairy humans = kinda gross. Hairless animals = kinda gross. At least to most people. What gives? Is it just that our expectations are not being met in these cases? Humans are supposed to be smooth-skinned, animals are supposed to be fuzzy. (Mammals, anyway.) I’ve always secretly thought humans look sorta naked all the time, almost fetus-like, with our large bulbous heads and spindly limbs. Damn we must look weird to other mammals.

Holy CHRIST!
Man, that is one crazy-ugly-looking kitten! Eek!
OK, I’m a dog person, but I think I’d say the same, if not worse, about a hairless puppy.
Damn!!
What? No slightly off-color jokes? We’re slipping here, guys. Anyway, I’ve always wanted to have one of those sphynx cats. See, I’d have a normal furred cat first, and get someone to watch it for me while I was out of town. Then, when I got back into town, I’d get a sphynx cat, unbeknownst to my cat sitter. I’d then call the cat sitter up, and demand to know what the hell they’ve done to my cat as all its fur has fallen off! 
Sooner or later, I’d let 'em in on the joke. Of course, I’d prolly have to find another cat sitter the next time I went out of town . . .
Hey! You can kiss my hairless hamster’s naked behind!
I actually think it looks a little regal in its pose. I imagine that were it to speak it would sound like a little Winston Churchill.
That’s the cutest thing I’ve ever seen.
And I’ve seen a bug in a rug.
Sphynx kittens look weird. So do Sphinx adults because they’re so looooong and skinny. Ratty I pet a Sphynx at a cat show. It was like petting a peach.
And as per your hijack - if humans were fluffy I wouldn’t mind so much, but hairy – yuck! Too coarse.
Holy CRAP!
It’s a penis with TEETH!
:eek:
