Dear Hollywood...
Okay, okay....I am done. Hollywood, you just don't seem to get that the Sphynx Cat is not just a good stand in for a weird cat accident. Just once...just once I would like to see a sphynx cat in a movie as an actually Sphynx cat, not as regular cat that lost its hair.
It started, of course, with Mr, Bigglesworth:
Though as adorable as an evil kitty can be, Mr. Bigglesworth is a Persian who didn't thaw very well.
Then there was Cats and Dogs 2: The Revenge of Kitty Galore
I was a huge fan of the first Cats and Dogs movie, but nearly a decade later it doesn't quite hold up. On top of that, the villain Kitty Galore is not just a sphynx cat, but she also suffered an odd accident that turned her from a regular hair-full cat into a hairless one.
And Book of Eli

Here, the sphynx cats are actually post-apocalyptic cats.
In Neil Gaiman's Stardust, for which I have no video, sphynxes are in cages in Lamia, the Witch Queen's castle - apparently either the ingredient or product for some spell.
Hollywood - Sphynxes are more than just mutant cats. Well, okay they are also mutant cats. But they are smart, adorable, lovable cats. I would love to see just one portrayed that way in a movie.
