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.

Hey there,My name's Sassy. I'm a totally crazy/hyper-active, playful, and affectionate cat. I have quite the personality.I love to run up and down the stairs, rip apart paper,attack teddy bears, and my toys, pounce on them, pounce on the household dog, and play with my owner.I was given a small white teddy when I was a kitten, and I carry it around everywhere with me especially to bed.I also love to cuddle it, play with it, or drop it at my owners feet. I associatenipping, with affection. I usually don't do it hard, but if you make me mad, you'll know it. I have quite the bite. I lovemy family. P.S, I don't like having my tummy rubbed. If you try it,I'll give you a warning growl that means "HANDS OFF!"
