Hairless Cats – Pet tip 145
For many, just the thought of a hairless cat is enough to make them shudder. For these people, the sight of a hairless cat is shocking, and touching one is downright scary. If you are one of these people, then this article is unlikely to sway you in the other direction. However, if you are the kind of person who has always been a little bit intrigued by the unique look of hairless cats, read on. Behind their striking appearance is a fascinating background, and if you are considering making a hairless cat part of your family, there is also a plethora of information to know about the proper way to care for these beautiful creatures.
Congenital hairlessness in cats is an extremely rare trait. Essentially, a hairless cat is the result of genetic mutations in one or more of the genes which encode for normal hair development. While the word ‘mutation’ implies that this genetic condition is unwanted and accidental, there are actually many breeders who select specifically for the hairlessness trait and work to maintain the hairless lineage in their cats.

Hello there!
I'm Sebastian, but everyone calls me Sebi. I think I'm about 8 years old, but I am not so good at counting.
My dad, Michael, and I came here almost 3 years ago to live with J.R. and Winter. Before that we lived in Florida. Before that I was kind of lost until my Uncle Scott took me in and sent me to live with Michael. I was pretty sick then and J.R. sat up with me for a few days until I could get to a doctor. I had a rough time for a while, but I'm feeling lots better, thank you. I think living with my new sister Winter and my two daddies has been a good thing for me.
Just a few months ago, we got a new little sister. Her name is Kali. She's just a baby still, but I like her a lot. We run and play all the time. When I'm tired of her, I just go find a quiet spot to hide in for a while.
My favorite things to do are sleep, play in my box and eat cheese! Daddy Michael doesn't know this but I can read his mind and when he thinks something that has the word cheese in it, I head for the kitchen to meet him.
Come back and see us sometime!
Sebi
