so utterly cruel.. but of course people will buy them just because they are mutants.. and not care about their wellbeing..

That is so horrible! I think the Sphinx cats look weird but to interbreed cats unnaturally is going too far. These poor kittens. Must be freezing in this country. Are there not laws to prevent this for all animals? All my cats have been moggies. I would love another cat but DH not keen. He was very upset when our last had to be PTS (old age & kidney failure). She had a happy life though.

It's vile what some human beings do to animals. Makes me want to weep for these poor creatures.

It should be illegal to breed what are, in effect, disabled animals.
People are such selfish fools.

Hear, hear, MissAdventure,
We need to bring in far more stringent & humane laws regarding animal welfare. Animals have been exploited for far too long by cruel, ignorant morons. Yet if you try to protest your called a crank & a weirdo My awful sister said it to me when I went on a animal rights march (and said and I quote)
"What's wrong with putting a bit of eyeshadow on them"!!!!! (Ignorant fool!)
That was 35yrs ago and things have not changed very much for many poor creatures , particularly those abroad. 😢

If nobody shows an interest or buys them the breeders will stop with these dreadful Frankenstein animals.

I agree, but the type of people who both breed these and those who buy them are clearly not decent human beings!

It’s like some sort of horrific experiment!

This is so cruel, breeding pets to suit a particular market. There should be legislation against it. Whatever we wouldn’t like to have done to us we shouldn’t do to any other living thing.
And as for the people who buy these pets as status symbols or accessories, putting their pets on instagram, and indeed if we can believe it getting rid of pets that don’t look good on instagram, they are the lowest of the low.

I couldn't agree more with all of that. It's abhorrent.

These awful deformed animals always seem to start in USA
I hope no one buys them or imports them here

They look like those little Gremlins on the films (not the cute Gremlin, but the vicious one). Why would anyone breed such a creature, it’s beyond cruel.

Cossy Sat 19-Oct-24 17:29:26

Anyone come across these?

Honestly, talk about cruelty!
