If you think that all cats look the same, we have news for you. Cat breeds and their looks can vary from short-legged to extra long-legged, floppy-eared to ears like satellite dishes, from cats with luscious thick furs such as Maine Coons' to absolutely hairless Sphynxes. This time, we're dedicating a post to the latter and if the only emotion that a hairless cat can give you is 'Ewwww' - check our compilation showing their adorable cuteness, whimsiness, and softness to change your mind.
Though Sphynxes, also known as Canadian Hairless isn't the only hairless cat breed, they are by far the most popular. The roots of this breed stem from a couple of bald stray cats found in Ontario around the '70s, later becoming the breed that we now know. These alien-looking felines are famous for their dog-like characters, playfulness, agility, and a strong bond with their owners. If you have cat allergies, Sphynx cats might be a tempting solution to try but they're not hypoallergenic as it isn't the hair but rather a protein found in cats' saliva that causes the allergies. In exchange for their glorious statuesque looks, these cats need quite a lot of grooming and regular baths despite being hairless.
Now scroll down below to meet the supremely graceful and otherworldly looking felines for yourself. Don't forget to tell us what you think about these cute cats in the comments and vote for the most adorable ones!

They are happiest when they know they have you trapped. This is how they'll find my body one day. cat-on-ske...f2201f.jpg
Nope. Call me extreme, but I'm against breeding animals for specific faults that handicap them, just for our pleasure.
While you're right, at this point there's enough of them that they would still exist without purposeful breeding.
"Why is it inside out?!" Ah, Ross, you still crack me up!
They are adorable. But please, if you have your pet in the car, put them in a box or restraint. You may be the world's safest driver.. there can always be some idiot..
