Where can I get one of those bald cats with no hair. just the skin?
they’re fn cool. i want 1!
Devon Rex aren’t hairless. Either Sphynx or Kohona Cats (rare, and truly hairless. Sphynx cats have a fine layer of peach fuzz) are what you’re looking for. They are hard to find in shellters, so you’d most likely have to get one from a breeder.
If you’re an animal lover, a cat might be the right choice for you. Cats usually live a long life (many of them live over 20 years) and are both loving and independent. They can be the perfect addition to any family.
Here are some questions to ask yourself and your family if you are considering adding a cat to your lives.
Kitten or cat?
The first choice when deciding between cats is if you want a young cat or an older one. The kittens are certainly an attractive option, but they soon grow out of their stage of small, cute and require much attention and expense – including housetraining, and medical expenses, such as vaccines and sterilization. Kittens are also more sensitive than older cats, which means that children can sometimes treat it too rough, resulting in accidental injury or distress to the animal. For these reasons, an adult cat may be easier to connect with your family life, and because older cats in rescue centers are harder to place in homes than their younger teammates.
Pedigree or Not?
The vast majority of cats fall in the “mixed race” category – which means they are not pedigree. Since they are a mix bag of sorts, if you get a kitten, you do not know in advance the final size or temperament. However, many owners enjoy this element of surprise and because cats vary less than dogs, choosing a breed is less important. Pedigree cats may also be more prone to genetic problems and health problems related to a particular race. If you want to go the way of pedigree, here are some popular breeds to choose from.
1) Siamese
It originated in Thailand and imported into Britain in the 1880
Medium sized slender cat are graceful but muscular
Short white coat with dark face, ears, paws and tail, minimal grooming necessary
Life span of 20 years or more
Sociable and outgoing, can be very noisy
2) long-haired Persian
Its origin in Persia (Iran) and Turkey
A solid long-haired cat with a broad head, round a flat face and eyes wide apart
Long haired
Short life expectancy of 10 to 12 years
Indoor cats are not very active
3) Russian Blue
It probably originated in Russia
Medium and large cat with a pointed face and short hair
Short blue-gray fur (cats rarely black and white)
