    Have you EVER seen anything like this???



    This is Ari, now "Hairie". I feel so bad for him cuz he's, well, DIFFERENT. Some people would consider him a freak. I love him sooooo much. He's a great cat that has gone through alot. One of 50 cats found in a house in New Haven, CT.

    I have since found out that Hairie is a Sphynx/Cornish Rex mix. THAT'S why his hair keeps coming back.

    Poor Ari. That has to be about the ugliest cat I've ever seen! Do you remember a beer commercial with a dog named Larry? Well, Ari is the Larry of cats. I bet he's a sweetie, though. I'm so glad you adopted him.

    IT LOOKS AS THOUGH HIS FUR IS SLOWLY STARTING TO GET DARKER ON THE SIDE, I WONDER IF THAT HAPPENS A LOT WITH DEVON REX AND SPHYNX CATS.

    Donna - he is lovely and unique.

    I apologize for saying this - but his eye looks really awful, way worse than the last time I saw a pic of him. Maybe the flash hit it wrong?

    Hugs to Ari.

    Ari is adoreable and unique. He is a rare find and you were lucky enough to have him land in your house to live with you forever. I would kiss him and that adoreable face all day long.

    I would personally take on ANYONE who says Ari is a freak! I think he's nothing short of adorable and looks so darn sweet. Donna, it's easy to see why you love him so much and I hope Ari will be a regular PT visitor.

    Hi Ari! Would you ask your Meowmie to give you lots and lots of lovies from me?

    Smokey,

    I LMAO when I read your "He is the ugliest cat I've ever seen!" He's unique.

    Catty1,

    His eye is the same as it's been. I put Timoptic in it 2x a day to keep it moist.

    I love him so much. He's a very gentle cat who loves to sleep in a paper bag.

    Yep, unique is the best way to describe him.

    Maybe his hair patch will grow long and he can try a comb over. HEHEHE!

    LOve him...

    How's about slipping him some rogaine?

    No two people are the same and, thankfully, that's true in the cat world. It would be boring to find sameness. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and I behold Ari's beauty and I'm sure he has a beautiful personality as well. That makes him pretty darned easy to love, yes?
    Blessings,
    Mary

    The weird thing is the fur will grow in patches all over his body, then it falls out. I wish I had the money to get his eye fixed and make him all better, but I was told that the eye ulcer is like having a constant piece of sand in your eye. The surgery is expensive and no guarantee it'll work. I keep putting in the eye goo and it helps keep it moist.
