Lykoi
cats get their freaky appearance from a natural mutation in a domestic
shorthair that gives the felines werewolf features and prevents them
from growing a full coat of fur. And now the eye-catching – and spooky – appearance of the cats have seen a new trend in breeding the type. Tennessee-based veterinarian
Johnny Gobble, one of three ‘foundation breeders’ behind the Lykoi cats,
said the first litter was born in 2010. The new breed has a patchy coat
caused by incomplete hair follicles and no hair around its eyes, nose,
ears and muzzle – it can even go completely bald.
