They were out of fur at the factory. lol
What in shaved hell happened to the cat? Don't tell me it's sphinx I can see those single whiskers!
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sphynx_cat
“Whiskers may be present, either whole or broken, or may be totally absent.”
Wait.. so someone actually shaved a cat? People are awful, poor animals treated as cute little toys.
No, sphinxes naturally have very short or nonexistent whiskers. Poor OP has to deal with accusations of animal cruelty every time they post, I would have given up by now
True but if we reframe it, OP gets multiple chances to re-educate people on a misunderstood breed of cat. They are truly a champion of life-long learning.
Yesss
Nah! I've just learned that there's a breed called devon rex and those have fur (very short tho) and look super cool! Might even say that (in my opinion) they look better than sphinxes 👀
