Squick Or Squee?
The Results are in! You all decided that this is, whithout a doubt, squee squee squee.
Dear Readers: We love those little baby animals, but we are undecided on this one, let us know what you think!
Squee! Spotter:dunno source via Daily Squee
That’s a toughie. I know that someday it will grow up to be a sphynx and they are not cute as grown ups. I can’t even tell if it’s cute now…
im getting a sphynx eventually
My personal opinion: meh.
I agree; actually, kinda yuck. It looks like a pathetic kitty that got set on fire and burned badly.
I think s/he is very cute! Love all the little wrinkles.
Kitteh are always teh kyoot, even with out hair.
Taht’s uh kitteh?
Too adorable…/me loves sphynx keettays!
Very cute – definitely cat and might not be a sphynx. Could possibly be a devon rex or cornish rex. Looks like a Devon Rex to me (I have one, the same colouring as this one. Looks like his kitten pohotos
sphynx came from a canadian devon rex mother in the 1960s who had one bald kitten. and that bald one got handed over to a geneticist if i recall. and you have to breed the spynx with a furry cat, they usually use a devon rex for that to keep the same shape. im not going to check my facts because i have a fever lol
Adorable naked kittehs FTW!
Just cause he’s hairless doesn’t make him ugly!!
He’s adorable!!
So CUTE!
She’s a baby, even when they’re not ‘cute’, they’re endearing. Every species is a part of our great big world; keep them coming.
I agree, sweet little baby can’t help if it was bred bald! but it has peach fuzzies
I agree that this little guy is indeed cute, but must we all speak in lol speak all the time? It makes you sound like an idiot. Would you do this in public? Would you do it at work? Save the lol speak for captioning pictures and talking to babies.
I love sphynx! i just can afford one. Theyd be perfect for me. I sunburn very easily lol
Kitty! Yay!
It’s tiny! It’s helpless! It needs noms & warmth & love! Who cares if it won’t win any beauty contests? I wanna cuddle it NOW!!!
hmmmm the wrinkles make him look a little like a drowned rat, but the little mid-meow face makes me giggle.
I agree that the fact that it is a kitteh means it need noms, luv etc, but this baby looks angry! I know that this kitteh will not be too cute as a grown up either. EEK. I feel bad for it. I would like to knit it a sweater…
I’m not sure “squick” and “squee” are mutually exclusive. Being a hideous, bald, wrinkled abomination just makes this little guy even more pathetic and therefore more sympathetic. I just want to knit him a little sweater and snuggle him!
Also known as “so ugly it’s cute” — q.v. bulldogs.
While not quite “abomination”, the Sphinx cat is overdone. Really..just have a cat. Breeding is going overboard, imo.
Sweet little baby kitteh needs luvs and noms!
I have a friend who has had three of these little guys, and each of them was a sweetie! I’ve made form-fitting sweaters for them to wear during the colder months, and they love ‘em! When you pet them, they feel kinda like suede-covered hot water bottles, and they are very affectionate little boogers.
=^..^=
OMG….that is one very, very, very cute kitten! Love the blue eyes and curly whiskers (Devon Rex?)
Squee! I love sphynx kittens!
To all the naysayers, I dare you – DARE YOU – to look at this sphynx kitten and not squee your pants: http://thedailykitten.com/media/kittypix/0/kitten674.jpg
uuuh, sorry mmtov, but first thought in my head was “burn victim w/bandages”.
What’s not to love? I can cuddle it and still breathe. Awesome kewtness.
Of course he’s (she’s?) cute – it’s a baby animal, right? They’re cute by default.
It’s so wrinkly! ^.^ And they look even nicer when they get older.
We had a cat that was part sphinx and was bred to have hair. He mated with our long haired cat and made some really pretty babies. ^^
These cats are awesome.
Heehee…I’m tentatively a “squee”, but do wish the record to note that s/he would be much more squee-able with some judicious application of an iron.
Spynx kitten!! SQUEEEEEEEEEEE!!
Oh dear … what in the heck is that??????
Cute in a very odd way.
That looks more like a peterbald (I have one) They get less wrinkiley, as they grow up… I LOVE hairless kitties, no matter the breed. They are amazing animals…
Aww, see what happens when you bathe them too much! All shrunk and wrinkly.
It’s still a kitten, so I have to vote cute.
I’m undecided. It’s very weird looking, but I’m sure she/he is a sweetie.
its very cute no matter what you ppl say!! i bet its even cuter than human babies!
…It looks demonic. I think I just peed a little.
Sphynx are awesome! If I ever get a cat, that is the only breed I can get, since I am allergic to cat fur. I know it’s the fur cause I can hold newborn kittens, when all they have is super short fuzz.
Unfortunately, Shadowlily, the substance that produces cat allergies isn’t their fur or dander. It’s an enzyme in cat *saliva* that causes allergies in humans. Since cats are always grooming themselves, the saliva coats their fur and skin. So even hairless kitties can produce reactions in people with severe cat allergies. Allergy shots help a bit if you’re around cats occasionally, but if you’re that allergic — even if you get regular injections — you’re better off not adopting one yourself. (My solution: Having lots of kitty-owner friends! ^_^)

kinda cute kinda wierd.
Awwww! Definitely squeeworthy.
Odd, but so cute.
Maybe it looks not so fuzzy-cute as other kittens, but I know, how a kitten without fur feels like. I once had one in my hand as I was on a Cat Exhibition Show… their skin feels soooo soft and smooth even without hair… and they’re quite hot (srsly, cats normally have higher body temperature than humans…)
*g* and the purring feels even cuter than fuzzy cats purring…
in fact, they’re amazing, except the wrinkles *gg
awwww T ^ T I HATE PEOPLE WHO HATES CATS THAT I LOVE AND I LOVE ALL OF THEM IN THIS WORLD THAT I DON’T LIKE WHICH IS THE WORLD I DON’T LIKE AND YOU DoN’T LIKE IT EITHER
