Vampire cat

Post by **fourpawsonthefloor** » Mon Oct 16, 2006 1:04 am

I stumbled across this little jem while looking for pictures to convert into puzzles on my computer (yes, I am a geek).

I am one of those people who firmly believes that there just ain't that many ugly cats out there. Ugly dogs, for sure. But cats? They are pretty much universally attractive to me, barring the odd one.

This would be an 'odd one'.

Dude, I don't know about you but even kitty loving me would have nightmares about THAT.

That's too cute! It's a Sphinx cat telling off the furniture! I love those cats!

But yes, it DOES look a bit freaky.

Creepy, are cats' paws always that long?

Hmm, different...

I'd probably have one to freak out my neighbours though.

I don't really like the furless lok on cats very much

Yep when the toes are extended they are. Ususally they are retracted and in a neat 'zig zag' if you will. But stretch them out - and that is what you get.

Its just funky without the fur cause you can see the bone/vein structure quite well.

Looks to me more like an crossbreeding of an cat and a bat.

That kitty crosses the line from ugly back to cute. She or he looks like a gargoyle gremlin to me.

I like it! It looks soft.

It does bear a strong resemblance to Batboy. And those mitts! Wow.

This is a rare expensive breed... honestly, I'd rather adopt a fluffy homeless kitten!

Oh ya, fluffy homeless kittens are the best, I got one and was told it was like 9 weeks, I raised it and brought it to the vets when it was suppose to be 6 months and the vet was like oh, he might reach 10 pounds, a good size for a barn cat. Then she checked his teeth and went...Um, how old did you say he was? So I said he should be 6 months if the people we got him from had the date right. She looks again and she goes. He isn't even 5 months yet...
lol, He was a month younger then they had told me and he weighed more than the average 6 month old kitten. He is now just a year old and he weighs like 13 pounds.

Well...if its hard to find an ugly cat, you'd think it was double hard to find an ugly kitten - but I have succeeded! And it even has fur!!

I don't know why, but everytime I see that picture my first thought is "I could hit that saphenous vein on the left limb there... easy."

Aww. It's sad when they get inbred.
