Is that a hairless cat with hair?

[-] officermike@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Cornish rex, I believe. They only have the undercoat fur and not the outer layers of fur.

Edit: so yes, hairless, not hairnone

Pretty much! He's a Cornish Rex.

Is he still as snuggly as completely hairless cats?

[-] BradleyUffner@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

Ohh yes, very much so.

Are they easier to take care of than full hairless? Do you need to bathe them?

[-] Chocobofangirl@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

They need a lot more washing with sensitive skin products, and antibacterial treatments if they get acne, but at least you don't have to worry about matting or messes stuck to their butts. You also trim their nails more often cus the beds can get filthy. Apparently they're oily because hair would wick that away from their skin, usually.
