A cat aptly named Ugly is attracting a lot of attention at an Exeter veterinarian, where clients say they can't take their eyes off his striking appearance. The cat's full name is Ugly Bat Boy. He's bald in most places except for flowing fur on his chest, and he spends his days on a warm computer at Exeter Veterinary Hospital. Bat Boy has become something of a local star. "People come in and take pictures of him on their cell phones," said veterinary employee Christie Hartnett. "He's just great. He's Dr. (Stephen) Bassett's little wonder cat." The cat's striking appearance is normal, for him. He was part of a litter of four with a sister that looked just like him. That kitten died at only a few weeks old, but that was long enough for Bassett to become enamored with Bat Boy. "The owner knew that I liked the way the sister looked, and I came in from lunch one day and this cat was sitting in a cage, and the owner said Dr. Bassett liked this cat, so that's it," Bassett said. Workers said many people who come into the building can't really believe what they're seeing. But they said despite appearances, Bat Boy has a nice disposition and real inner beauty. "The impression from clients that come in is he's not real because he just sits so still, and when he does move, he scares them, but they think he's mesmerizing," Hartnett said. The office staff was getting so many questions about the cat that they put up a couple of fliers saying he's about 8 years old and perfectly normal in every way -- just ugly. He has the run of the place and all the attention he can handle. "He likes it here," Bassett said. "He's comfortable. He likes the people petting him. So, he enjoys it."

at first glance he looked like a fake cat to me. It looks like they attached a toupee to its chest. |

I do not agree with what you have to say, but I'll defend to the death your right to say it. Voltaire ![]() | |
