   Will the develop skin patters as they age, or stay pink forever?

     I have no idea. I’m not a cat person.

   They look like aliens.

     That applies to adult Sphynxes too (imo). I think the Peterbald is much nicer looking.

       The different coat types Peterbalds have are very interesting. I like the way the patterned cats look, very exotic.

         The Peterbald gene is dominant, the Sphynx is recessive. I’ve noticed, with the ‘hair-patterened hairless’ breeds of various animals, that it is the dominant mutations that tend to have hair patterning of various degrees. It’s very interesting.

   Jess, as I am descended from aliens, I take great offense to that remark you made….actually, our heads are MUCH bigger at that age(just out of the pod).

     You can’t fool me, Lane, I know what you look like! If there’s any alien in there, it’s way on back. Or maybe a different planet than alien cats.

   How-in-heck do you know what I look like? And if so, you mean you can’t tell I’m 1/32nd Alien? Most people spot that instantly–as well as realizing I was also raised by wolves(or at least, wolf hybrids….)

     I know what you look like.

     I googled your name a long time ago.

     I got a hit on my blog a while back from someone searching for your name, and I backtracked to an Edgar Rice Burroughs web site interview. From 1983. I just did the aging in my head.

       Excuse me, that’s volume 1983!

   Dang! I don’t even own a computer, but there ain’t no hiding from the Internet! Kinda scary……And Jess, I hope you aged me gently–you know, alien blood supposedley lends some longevity to the mix…..
