But every once in a while, a cat comes along that completely rewrites what you thought you knew about these furry companions.
That’s exactly what happened when Puck’s owner shared a video to introduce this remarkable feline. And let’s just say, his unique appearance had everyone talking!
As you can see, Puck isn’t a typical fluffy feline or sleek, elegant kitty. Instead, he’s got such a surprising appearance that it almost feels like he’s from another realm.
He’s got a look so unique that some people need to do a double-take, wondering if he’s a scruffy rat or a Pokémon character come to life!
Puck is a Lykoi cat, often nicknamed the “Werewolf cat” due to his striking, otherworldly appearance.
His unusual look is actually caused by a genetic mutation that prevents him from growing an undercoat. That’s why he has this patchy black and white “Roan” coat.
And he was born on Halloween – how fitting! Sometimes, when he sheds, he almost looks like a Sphynx cat, but they’re not related at all.
Despite his spooky vibe, Puck is a total goofball at home. He might shy away from the world outside, but at home, he’s the ruler of playtime and always ready for some mischief.
The Lykoi breed is still pretty new, so people are often surprised when they meet one. Some immediately link it to something spooky – like a mischievous creature from a ghost story, as one commenter wrote:
“Perfect blend of wild and wicked, like something that crawled out of the shadows just to stir up trouble.”
But most people instantly fall in love with these boo cuties, as written in the comment:
“What a beautiful, unusual-looking boo kitty! You’ve stolen my heart.”
And another follower noted:
“The gold eyes really make the look come together.”
One follower couldn’t help but share how high-energy these cats can be:
“And the energy level!! My Lykoi is 3.5 years old and wears out my other kitties, yet he still wants to play. I’ve never had a more energetic cat.”
The Lykoi cat definitely has a wild look that makes it stand out, but its personality is anything but fierce. With boundless energy and loving nature, this quirky breed brings an intriguing mix of mystery and affection.
So, if you’re thinking about bringing a Lykoi into your family, be ready for non-stop fun and games.
But don’t just take my word for it – check out the video Puck’s owner shared to see this little werewolf in action (and don’t forget to unmute it)!
