Hello everyone, I am your shit shovel. Today, I want to talk to you about a controversial topic - raising hairless cats. You may have heard of these special cats, but do you really know them? Before revealing the truth, I would like to share a true story with you.

One day, I I received a call for help from a friend. His hairless cat suddenly developed skin problems, redness, swelling, and itching, and the cat looked quite miserable. He asked me anxiously, what is going on? I told him that this is one of the common skin problems of hairless cats. Due to the lack of protection from hair, they are more susceptible to external stimulation and bacterial infection.

1. Characteristics of Hairless Cats

Hairless cats are cats that have no hair due to a genetic mutation. Their skin is directly exposed without the protection of their hair, making them more susceptible to damage from environmental factors such as ultraviolet rays, cold, and heat. Moreover, their skin is easily scratched, which can lead to infection if not careful.

2. Why is it not recommended to raise a hairless cat?

First of all, raising hairless cats requires special care and environment. They need regular bathing, keeping their skin clean, and special sun protection measures to protect their skin from ultraviolet damage. In addition, hairless cats are also very sensitive to temperature changes. They are prone to catching colds when they are cold and heatstroke when they are hot. Parents need to provide them with a stable temperature environment.

The next step is the health problem of hairless cats. Due to the lack of protection from hair, hairless cats are more likely to suffer from skin diseases, allergic reactions and other diseases. Moreover, their skin is also susceptible to parasites, such as fleas and mites. Therefore, hairless cats need to pay more attention to their health and take them to the pet hospital regularly for physical examinations and vaccinations.

Is there any solution? Of course! If you really like hairless cats but are worried about their health, you can choose to get some hairy but short-haired cats, such as Maine Coon cats, Russian Blue cats, etc. Although their hair is not as thick and dense as long-haired cats, it can still provide some protection for the skin.

Finally, I want to emphasize that keeping pets requires sufficient responsibility and patience. Whether they are hairy cats or hairless cats, they all need our love and attention. If you really like hairless cats, then please be fully prepared to provide them with a suitable living environment and health care. After all, our goal is for our pets to live happy and healthy lives.
