How'd you like to wake up and see this thing staring at you?
I think the hairless cat was originally bred to test cosmetics - I know they've bred hairless mice for that purpose.
But popularized by the Austin Powers movies, some catteries (not to be confused with batteries) are breeding them. So maybe in a few years we'll all have hairless cats. But what if you prefer dogs?
Well, this is a hairless terrier. There have been other hairless dogs. The Chinese Crested has nothing but a tuft of fur on its head and tail. They are excellent little dogs.
These hairless versions are just as friendly as "regular" cats and dogs... they just look weird.
