If you think that all cats look the same, we have news for you. Cat breeds and their looks can vary from short-legged to extra long-legged, floppy-eared to ears like satellite dishes, from cats with luscious thick furs such as Maine Coons' to absolutely hairless Sphynxes. This time, we're dedicating a post to the latter and if the only emotion that a hairless cat can give you is 'Ewwww' - check our compilation showing their adorable cuteness, whimsiness, and softness to change your mind.

Though Sphynxes, also known as Canadian Hairless isn't the only hairless cat breed, they are by far the most popular. The roots of this breed stem from a couple of bald stray cats found in Ontario around the '70s, later becoming the breed that we now know. These alien-looking felines are famous for their dog-like characters, playfulness, agility, and a strong bond with their owners. If you have cat allergies, Sphynx cats might be a tempting solution to try but they're not hypoallergenic as it isn't the hair but rather a protein found in cats' saliva that causes the allergies. In exchange for their glorious statuesque looks, these cats need quite a lot of grooming and regular baths despite being hairless.

Now scroll down below to meet the supremely graceful and otherworldly looking felines for yourself. Don't forget to tell us what you think about these cute cats in the comments and vote for the most adorable ones!

This is clearly my favorite. He looks so wise you almost expect him to talk.

    I was thinking it must be warm there to bring your Sphynx outside without a sweater then I saw the display temp said 84. That's the perfect temp for these guys. Such an adorable sweetie.

    When they see their shadow, they spend six more weeks under the blankets.

    "You woke me up for this?" Kitty is not pleased to be woken up from such a warm, comfy nap.

    With fur, they'd be a flame point Siamese. Such a pretty kitty.

    Cat's tongues are so rough, I wonder if, with their lack of fur, their skin feels it like we do. While not 100% hairless, I'm sure their fine fuzz does not block out all the roughness.

    Actually Sphynx are the exception to this. Because of their lack of fur, sphynx cats have incredibly oily and sweaty skin and require weekly bathing. Luckily, they're not too adverse to water and most enjoy a nice bath.

    Considering some of the positions they sleep in, this one isn't too crazy. But I love those beans!

    They also wanted your heat. They need blankets when they sleep if they're not wearing a sweater.

    That girl is trapped until kitty wakes up. How could you disturb them?
