Kitten Looks Like A Little Wolf And It is Scarily Cute
Gracie looked like an ordinary kitten at first, but as she grew, her coat changed in a way that made people do a double take. The little cat started losing fur and developing a scruffy, wolf-like look that turned her into an instant internet curiosity.
Her owner, Waltman, watched the transformation unfold and began looking for answers as Gracie kept growing into her unusual appearance. What she found was a rare condition that made the kitten look more like a tiny werewolf than a typical house cat.
Now Gracie’s story has people staring, smiling, and asking the same thing, how can something so strange still be this cute?
When Gracie was born, she looked like a normal kitten, but she didn't grow at the same rate as her brothers and sisters and started losing all her fur.
Brianna Waltman was fostering two pregnant cats, and they gave birth within a week of each other, resulting in 12 kittens. However, Gracie definitely stood out. They took her to the vet, who said the hair loss was likely just a result of a fever.
Waltman said:
“Gracie lost her entire coat and was completely bald for about a week until peach fuzz started to grow back in. Once it started to grow, it was speckled black and white. I thought it was cute, and again, thought it was because of the fever.”
Waltman did some research online:
“I had seen a few cats in random video clips online that looked like the older version of her. After doing some research, I realized she was undeniably a wolf cat.”
Wolfcats are caused by a rare genetic condition, but aside from their appearance, they are just like regular cats.
Wolfcats are considered to be partially hairless cats; they do not have a true undercoat and instead have thin, wiry hair.
That left Gracie with a look people were not expecting.
