With looks like this you would probably want to keep this moody moggy hidden indoors.
But remarkably this Don Sphynx cat - who looks not dissimilar to ET and a Gremlin - has been drawing hundreds of admirers at a cat show.
The scary looking feline - who judging from this photo was having a really bad day - was showcased in Bishkek in Kyrgyzstan this weekend.

You got a Bengal for free, Score!
They go for over $1,000 for a kitten and they are supposed to be smart and affectionate, although every cat I’ve had has been like that.
We got a light Tuxedo cat that way. She’s extremely smart (and well fed) so we figured the owner would miss her. Put up signs, no response.
Your Bengal is beautiful.
If I do that, the cat knocks it off the counter in the middle of the night and it's metal so it wakes everyone up. The cat sits there and waits for it to be refilled. Now who is smarter, me or the cat???? The cat obviously.
Damn, she does.
Thanks.
Yes, we got a Bengal for free.
I happpened to go out into the garage one day and she ran out.
It was obvious that she had been out on her own for quite some time. She was skin and bones, dirty and very frightened. We asked around the neighborhood and put an ad in the paper to no avail.
We began to feed her and eventuall got her to come inside the house.
We didn’t realize what we had at first- until she fattened up and her beautiful coat became lush and glossy.
We often wonder what her story is- where she came from.
She had already been spayed, so she had belonged to somebody
who cared about her.
Anyway, we’re glad she chose us to come to.
She has been a pure delight, very smart and affectionate.
If you like cats that retain the wild look, check out the Savannah..recently given the OK to be registered as a breed, a cross between a wild\ Serval cat and house cat...they are the tallest cat and look wild, retains all of the spots and long legs....but expensive most start at about 1000 dollars...interesting history...but the most beautiful cat I have have seen...the Bengals are also beautiful....can be taken for walks like a dog....
That is a great shot, just a great photo, truly worth a thousand words.
A thousand amazing space-alien words that we don’t even know!
Well, Hussein has had a history of flies landing on him.
Seems like there are several pictures of him with them on his face. That’s about the level of pet he deserves, house flies.
As long as he’s on “the rubber chicken lecture circuit” starting next January,,,that’s the only thing I want.
Cheers
"CTHULHU FTAGHN!"
LOL, that’s what he REALLY saying!
Once you pointed it out, it was obvious. ;^)
