When it comes to pets, everyone may not be unfamiliar, because with the development of the times, many young people are now very fond of pets. For example, we are very familiar with cats, cats, dogs and dogs, but this kind of "hairless cat" that was robbed for tens of thousands of dollars in the past, why is no one interested now?
In fact, the hairless cat is the Sphinx hairless cat, alias Canadian hairless cat. Maybe everyone sees what it looks like and knows that the appearance makes people feel a little surprised. Because hairless cats are genetically mutated breeds, they have no hair all over their bodies.
The cats we remember are all furry and very cute. But this hairless cat is like plucking out the hair, the skin is wrinkled like antelope skin, and the skin of some cats may feel resistance to the touch.
It was such a cat with a low appearance, but there were many people who liked hairless cats at that time. Especially for some young people, hairless cats are favored by them. And when hairless cats were introduced into China that year, the price once rose to tens of thousands of yuan, to the extent that there was no market.
So, why do some people like to have hairless cats?
First of all, some people like to have cats, but they are allergic to cat hair. Some people have allergic reactions after contact with cat hair, and more than 90% of people who are allergic to cats are caused by a protein called "Fel d 1". These people will choose to raise hairless cats.
Others just care about an identity, because in the eyes of some people, cat ownership has become a "taste". As long as the cat is expensive enough, has a face, and looks tasteful, then the cat is worth the money.
Why is the price of hairless cats being hyped up?
In fact, the merchant has seized this feature of the customer, because the merchant knows that some people just like expensive things. Then the price of the hairless cat was raised to create an "aristocratic" cat, and a perfect marketing was completed.
In fact, it is the same as the Tibetan mastiff in that year, because when the Tibetan mastiff was introduced to our country, it was also hyped up. At that time, a purebred Tibetan mastiff was once sold for hundreds of thousands of dollars. But now, too, it's gone.
Why doesn't anyone have a hairless cat now?
Raising a hairless cat first requires more energy. Because it is sweaty compared to other cats, the body temperature is also 4 °C higher than that of the average cat, so it is necessary to eat continuously to maintain its metabolism. If you have a hairless cat, you must always maintain a 20 to 30 degree environment, which is very demanding.
In addition, the skin of the hairless cat is very greasy, because the hairless cat has no hair, so the oil on its body cannot be absorbed by the hair. And after the body has reached a certain level of grease, then wherever you go, you may rub it into oil everywhere.
In fact, raising pets is only out of their own liking, we don't need to care about other people's eyes, we don't need to mix too many things, and it is still pure to have pets.
