With looks like this you would probably want to keep this moody moggy hidden indoors.

But remarkably this Don Sphynx cat - who looks not dissimilar to ET and a Gremlin - has been drawing hundreds of admirers at a cat show.

Sphynx cats are also supposed to be very affectionate.

That's how people interpret their snuggling up.

Hint: They have no fur, and you are warmer than the floor...

I know it's rare and exotic but it wouldn't look good on top of my bookshelf. Missy wouldn't share anyway!

MISSY

It’s actually cute when it’s not angry. That is the aggressive look.

As I said, he’s probably scared by the crowds and the noise.

Can’t have Missy, she keeps me organized. If I don’t put stuff on the shelves the right way she dumps it on the floor!

This lovely Bengal came to our house when she was about half grown. Never could find her owner. She's been a delight.

She is a beauty.

I’m going to be catless for a few years— sigh. My old dog just isn’t cat-friendly.

Strangely enough, sometimes a dog, especially a female, will
take to a small kitten.
Hate to see you deprive yourself of the company of a cat.

I’m sure he’s very nice once you get to know him.

Very intelligent, very loving, but also high maintenance. Their skin exudes a waxy substance and it requires bathing at least once a week. Their ears and claws are also prone to wax build-up.

Still, if I were younger...
