"Ugly" Cat Proves Looks Aren't Everything


Animals  (tags: cat, unusual appearance )

The cat's full name is Ugly Bat Boy. He's bald in most places except for flowing fur on his chest, and he spends his days on a warm computer at Exeter Veterinary Hospital. Bat Boy has become something of a local star. (slideshow)

Great story, those close ups are a little scary.

Poor Kitty, but he has to be beautiful within and that is the most important thing at all. Noted with thanks dearest Kit.
Love, Black Dalia:)

I don't think there is any such thing as an ugly cat. Remember "beauty is in the eye of the beholder". Great story, Betty!

Noted. But for the record, I too, have an "ugly" cat, I rescued him from a local animal hopsital I volunteered at for a while, no one wanted him because he is skinny and built really strange, has a tail like a rope, and always looks underweight, her has one eye, a crooked mouth, and some teeth missing from the front on the same side his eye is missing, oh yeah, his ear on that side fills up with an abundance of wax. He hates to be hel and will cry and moan, even hiss at times, but he is a very loving and pretty well behaved for a cat. Even comes when called. He looks wstarnge, I have had people actually stand very still while he sniffs there shoes when they come in, thinking he will bite, people even back away from him when he greets them. So, like Bat Boy, he is beautiful where it counts, and I will never give him up. He is Marley, on my avatar pic.

God made Bat Boy just as He wanted him. Just because he's "different" is no reason to call him ugly. Besides, he dosen't know he's "different." Bat Boy is Beautiful! Thanks, Betty. XOXO

I don't think he's ugly at all. From what I could tell, he looks absolutely regal. Unique perhaps, but not ugly. But then, I've never seen an "ugly" cat. I love them all.

I'd have to kiss that boy right on the lips - every single day, and maybe more than once! WHO could resist? I mean REALLY. ((♥))
