XL Bully Cats?

Two sphinx cats live near us. They are indoor cats and never see the outside world. They live in a tiny, tiny cottage and just spend their days sitting in the window staring out.

It’s a crime against nature in my view🤬

The owner may well have things in the house to keep them stimulated Lisaange. Even cats that can and do go outside will sit inside looking out of a window.

I kept Sphynx cats for years and they all enjoyed happy and stimulated lives. Some indoor cat owners take them for walks on a lead so not much different to dogs really.

Whif

There are enough cats and dogs needing good homes in rescue centres all over the country. If you want a cat or dog get one from there .

Unfortunately, rescued pets often have complex needs, and I don't think the type of person who wants to own a "bully-cat" is much interested in animal welfare so much as wanting to boast that they have the latest 'fashion' in cats.

America has a lot to answer for but so do anyone in the UK who imports and buyers these deformed cats

Absolutely. How far will this go before the government steps in and bans the import and breeding of these disabled animals - probably far too late.

Anything with the word "bully" in it is a red flag for me.

The breeding , selling and owning of XL Bully Cats should immediately be banned thus preventing future problems and harm. Governments seem very good at bringing in new legislation speedily when it suits them and it would be good to seem them actually bring in something to prevent this before all the problems start.

The article says they may have a life shorter than regular cats by 6 years. Seeing as the average lifespan of a regular cat is 8 years, it's going to be a short life and not a merry one.

Each to their own but I don't think they should be brought into the UK where interbreeding might undermine the health of other cats. Revolting breed.

Hopefully these poor little cats will be out of favour soon! Just wonder what the next ‘fad’ will be? Such cruelty should be stopped before it gets too far!

It's sickening and cruel. Poor cats.

Awful

That's ridiculous Jacqui the average lifespan of domestic cats is 12 to 18 years.

How long before mindless morons turn their attention to humans? It is so cruel.

That’s just awful, poor things, all about greed. Disgusting …
