Some animals are cute and fluffy, some exciting and dangerous-looking, and some, well... grumpy. Meet Loki, a Sphynx cat who looks like an old man shouting at you to get off his lawn.
Loki lives with his human family - Sara and Brent from Brooklyn, NY. "This adorable cat has more personality and sass than any animal I have ever met," Sara told to a blog Girls And Their Cats. "We are inseparable. We are best friends."
The hairless cat came into the couple's lives a day before Halloween in 2014, after months of searching, as Brent is allergic to cats, so adopting a pet animal for them had more challenges than it usually does. "Loki is incredibly affectionate, cuddly, and chatty. Our silly cat loves napping on our bellies, eating chicken and scrambled eggs, and receiving hearty head scratches."
"Shortly after we adopted this unusual cat, I started an Instagram page solely dedicated to Loki. His Instagram page quickly picked up a following, noticeably for his seemingly grumpy cat demeanor and unique look."
"Loki has helped me return to creative and optimistic parts of myself that were misplaced while I was feeling unmotivated and sad. Animals are incredible healers and I am eternally grateful for Loki's companionship and generous loyalty. This cute cat is truly one of a kind."

That's generally the case with almost every Spynx cat. They are sweet little creatures, but tend to look like grumpy aliens!

I can just see him stroking a miniature human with long white hair and a diamond collar whilst expecting Mr Bond to die.
"OK I am here for the meeting and I am the boss but where are the employees?'.
"And, I've Called You ALL here to this Meeting today, to discuss the absolutely APPALLING quality of Your work efforts! On the agena:1. The State of MY LITTERBOX 2. The schedule of WHEN I say it is allowed to pet &/or Cuddle Me ( The schedule is NOT being adhered to) 3. My Meals & Menu Choices( There will ONLY Be Fresh, Organic Chicken & Tuna from hence forth)............
The INDIGNATION! Loki is really mad about being a hot dog instead of a hot cat!
Of course this is the grumpiest cat ever. Look at the things it's forced to wear
"AND What in THE NAME OF ALL THAT IS holy, has there EVER been a Cat of My Stature, been subjected to SUCH SACRILIDGE??? Are You NOT aware, that My Kind, has descended from being absolutely revered, along with the Great Kings of EGYPT? REMOVE this Now, or You will NOT like the reward You find in Your Shoes, just when You least expect it"!
If Yoda, Gollum and Dobby somehow had a love child

"What is SOOOOO FRICKING important, that You, Pathetic Human; sought to rouse ME, The Chosen One, from My SLUMBER? This had better be NOTHING short of important...."
what a happy boy! forget the face and look into his eyes! if you are a true animal lover, you will see it
"Dag nabbit, I can hear kids having fun on my front lawn and I'm too old and tired to get out of bed and chase them off..... wonder if I can bribe the dog to do it?"
Did you say vet? I dint think you understand. I DONT go to the vet. Do you wanna know about last guy who tried to take me to the vet? Yeah, i didnt think so.
"WHY, Oh Dear Lord, Why? Do You NOT realize Yet, that I am a CAT; Not Your Human Baby!!! When will You Realize this??? Every single time You subject, I, Loki, to these atrocities, I have retaliated with leaving You, 'ATROCITIES' of My own!!! Hmmm, NOTE to self, what shall it be this time, in retribution? Hairball? Dead Mouse? Pee on their clothes for work? "
What have you put me in, Sarah? This top is atrocious! Change me this instant.
"Sarah, WTF? Seriously, WTF? I thought You had stooped to a NEW low, with the Fluffy Rainbow sweater & attempting to make Me into a Unicorn BUT THIS? I'm shredding this, the minute her back is turned!!!"
Looks like he’s got little leg warmers on *cue Flashdance theme/montage whilst imagining him in a chair with water pouring over him *
Load More Replies..."NOT AGAIN!!! And grey? Why, oh WHY couldn't it @ least be the color of Myself? This one's getting thrown in the trash, the minute they turn their back!!! For Goodness sake, when are They going to realize, I'm a BAD A*S Cat, not a Fluffy, Ohhhh Look @ how Adorable the Kitty is; Type of Cat?"
sphynx cats, because they're hairless, like warm places, making him adapt to want to cuddle, and he probably doesn't mind dress up either.
I've gotta say, Loki really only has a face, that a Mother could love! ( And actually, the rest of the world because He's pretty adorable, in his own special way!)
"Look what You just made Me do, What You just made Me do; If I were You, I would check Your shoe...."? ( As Loki is singing to the Melody of Taylor Swift's song, 'Look What You Just made Me do")
Utter shock. He'd better watch for flies. (No, wait. Cats eat flies...)
"Knowledge it is You seek, Young Padawon? Council I shall take, consider the question, I will!"
They have to keep him in clothing because he has no for so the outfits are the only thing to keep him warm.
Load More Replies...Notice the hat is strapped under his chin. I doubt he likes his ears flattened like that.
I'd be mad too if I were a cat forced to dress this way. But I know that sphinx cats need to be warmed by clothing of some sort.
This poor baby, having to endure demeaning out fits like this!! Mom what were you thinking, putting this mon
There's a Hemingway in his ancestry! He's got 5 toes! And he really needs more cover on the butt end.
When you go to the store and find something you think looks cute, but when you put it on you're like:
Hmmm. Not too hideous. Pattern's a bit busy, but I can deal. Yes, I think this will do just fine hooman.
Yeeeaaahhh I don't think that's what he's singing...

"Why, yes Kurt it was I who left a dead mouse in your shoe, it was I who pee'd in your coffee, it was I who shat on your pillow, and it is I who will drive you insane. Why you ask? Alice is my woman Kurt and you should have known that from the start. Now, see yourself out before the dogs I hired show up to hump your leg and chew it off."
"Coffee, need coffee......and turn off that sun thing its way too bright"
I dare say I laughed a little too loud after reading that.
Load More Replies...You just had to add the fake Halloween hand, didn't you. Now I look like a Bond villain. How--plebeian.
Dude...I just want to Netflix and chill. Get the camera out of my face!
Soft kitty, warm kitty, little ball of.....well c**p this isn't gonna work!
Soft kitty, warm kitty, little sack of skin. Sleepy kitty, grumpy kitty, never cracks a grin. ;)
Load More Replies...Do not ever let this thing get wet , or feed it after midnight, oh wait you already did.
This looks like a photo taken in a French chateau 50 years ago with the lighting and the minimalist decor. Very cool.
"So help me Kurt, if you throw one more sock at me and yell 'you're free' I am going to claw you where the sun don't shine."
In my bubble again... Geesh! Now fetch me some caviar and kibbles ❤
I am so glad that he has clothes as he looks like he could be very cold in NYC!!!
I feel sorry for sphinx cats, it is a breed developed by humans to be hairless, this is unnatural for a cat. They suffer terribly from the cold and can get sunburn and skin cancers. I know this couple have an issue with cat allergies, but it is the cats that suffer.
I completely agree. This one poor guy doesn't even have whiskers! I would look pissed as f**k too, in his case. If the couple adopted him as in "not bought from a breeder", I'm slightly mollified since every pet deserves a good home, no matter what happened to them or how they look. But I really don't think it's a good thing that we get shown all those pictures of misshapen cats (like Loki but also those poor snub-nosed cats or the ones with wrinkly ears and short legs!) and dogs (pugs!), because it creates the desire to own such an animal in people who wouldn't want them otherwise. If someone wants a naked pet, how about a mole-rat? Or fish. But every animal has specific needs, and fur is part of that. Ugh. Poor Loki.
Load More Replies...This will get lots of downvotes (I am just stating my opinion) (PLEASE CORRECT ME IF I AM WRONG) but this is what happens with the amount of breeding animals go through and often cruel breeding like animal in a cage and breed them and breed them again cruel! When I see this kind of thing it makes me very angry however like I said at the start I WOULD LOVE TO BE CORRECTED!

i remain loyal to tartar sauce (grumpy cat) but loki is cute! the only problem is that his eyes are so big, that you can see every feeling in them, and in most of these, he is a very happy kitty!
This cat looks uncomfortable, not grumpy. Come in bored oanda, why promote irresponsible breeding of cats? Nature gave cats fur, humans denuded them.
I had no idea this breed was just so people could have pets that were allergic, I just thought it was a breed people that were allergic got to have, and usually at a very high cost. To make animals go through this just so people can have them, seems the complete opposite of what loving animals is about. I am not trying to judge but it is really really hard not to in this case.
