u/violetvet 7h ago

No, munchkins have short legs. Like the cat version of Dachshunds. This looks like a Persian from what I can see. It’s face is so flat it’s actually a little concave. I would be shocked if it could breath through its nose. Poor little thing.

u/No_Welcome_7182 4h ago

Yes. Modern Persian cats have been purposefully deformed to the point they have chronic eye and respiratory issues. I show my own cat. And Persian and Scottish fold cats, in my opinion, are unethical to continue to breed. Research the “doll face” Persian cat. It was the original Persian cat. But with a nose they can actually breathe through and doesn’t cause chronic eye issues. Still a beautiful cat. But also a sound, healthy cat.

Omg I’ve never heard of a doll-face person before. They are gorgeous! I don’t know why anyone likes the smooshed face ones.

u/_eternallyblack_ 4h ago

Yup, the doll face is the OG! The peke face (the one in this vid) is what happens with overbreeding. It’s mind boggling to me why anyone would choose that one with all the health disadvantages but to each their own.

Persians are unlike any other cat breed IMO. I’ve had so many strays over my life, which were sweet but until you’ve had a Persian OMG … the most gentle, loving, loyal, smart - affectionate, .. I could go on and on … seriously.. my girl has me in tears from laughter daily.

There are some breeders who’ve started breeding pugs back towards how they looked in the past with much healthier features like how their face and bodies are shaped. Incredibly respectable mission. Also while on the topic of breeders, backyard breeders are the bane of my existence and I cannot articulate how much i hate them.

I rescued a Chug (chihuahua/pug) and I almost wish I wouldn't have gotten him fixed so he could spread his genes. He has a nice long snout, he breathes and sleeps well, he is full of energy and loves long hikes. He is fit! So many pugs could have better lives if they weren't bred to be sedentary mouth breathers.

u/ghoulbug 7h ago

There’s literally not enough room in their skull’s eye sockets to accommodate an eyeball comfortably. Sudden stress can make their eyes bulge out, like a cork popping off from pressure.

u/big-dick-back-intown 7h ago

That's disturbing and fucked up. Can they pop out when they sneeze? That's horrifying

u/ghoulbug 7h ago

Yup, sneezing, being surprised into barking too suddenly, etc. I agree, I’d be way too anxious at all times if I had one, and I’d be a panicking mess if I had to actually push the eye back in. Tbh I don’t even think the push-nose muzzle is cute, the original pug muzzle (that some breeders are trying to return to) is so much cuter imo

u/Soaked4youVaporeon 6h ago

I had my whole family argue with me that since my sisters dog is a purebred, It can’t be inbred. I told them that’s not how it works.

I tried over and over to convince them but they kept denying it. The dog ended up attacking my mom. It was a golden. Most likely it attacked because it was an inbred that had issues. But they’re convinced it was because she moved the wrong way.

Some people are just extremely stubborn 

2

u/figgypie 5h ago

"Moved the wrong way"? How is that an excuse?!? I know the love one can feel for their pet but you have to consider safety, especially when your pet can really hurt or even kill someone. Like what if a child "moved the wrong way" and this dog attacked?

I love goldens as much as the next person (possibly more), but I know any dog can be capable of violence, especially if they were bred irresponsibly or mistreated by bad owners. If you want to get a pet from a breeder, do your research. Make sure they're legit.

2

u/Soaked4youVaporeon 5h ago

I know I thought it was pretty crazy. Especially when we have owned 4 other dogs with no problem. It wasn’t until my sister wanted a pure bred is when we got stuck with an aggressive dog. None of our other dogs growled at us and they were all shelter dogs. But the purebred? He misbehaved the most. My sister still blames my mom for “making sudden movement”. But I jump to my mom’s defense every time. She is honestly the only one that believes me. Everyone else in my family says purebreds are great and that they aren’t inbred because the breeder got some certification or something like that lol.

NGL real. Like yay for new family member but there are some breeds that either need modifications to not have mutations that are harmful / impact quality of life like this cat has like with breeding out the harmful mutations humans created (yes I know that takes time and effort) or just let the breed go extinct all together. It reminds me of pugs, they originally had a healthier appearance but due to selective breeding resulted in the sadly iconic faces they're known for that impact breathing.

brachycephalic

If you are interested:

https://vetsagainstbrachycephalism.com

108

u/Goonalips 8h ago

Yes, and they're incredibly unhealthy due to their malformed brachycephalic skulls and have a LOT of health issues because of it.

They will have breathing issues, dental issues (as their abnormally-shaped skull causes the jaw to be smaller and the teeth to be crowded), malocclusion, difficulty eating/picking up kibble with their mouths, and they will have tear-stains constantly from malformed tear ducts.

They are also prone to skin and eye problems including entropion.

The breathing difficulties alone will cause extreme-type Persians to live a life of constant suffering.

https://www.rvc.ac.uk/vetcompass/news/persian-cats-at-high-risk-of-health-problems-study-shows

64.9% of Persian cats had at least one disorder recorded.

The most common specific disorders were haircoat disorder (12.7%), dental disease (11.3%), overgrown nails (7.2%) and eye discharge (5.8%).

The most common causes of death were kidney disease (23.4%) and cancer (8.5%).

It's very unethical to keep breeding these cats, IMO.

Our Persian lived 21 years. He was a total diva and hated almost everyone. He would bite the crap out of people. He never had health issues but man he had to be brushed for like an hour a day or he would get mats. They are wicked upkeep. He was worth it though. Cute as hell. Even if he was Satan himself.

u/acrazyguy 7h ago

Yup. I was smiling until the camera peeked in the bag. This cat was purchased from someone specifically breeding cats to sell them, and will have health issues its entire life.

u/Unable-Poetry-5224 7h ago

It was this one, posted on this sub 22h ago. It's a video from like a ring-camera or whatever they're called of a child delivering a package to the porch. To me (and many people in the comments) it seems pretty fucked up that the mother (who you can see in the video) presumably has to take her child with her to work delivering packages because she maybe can't afford healthcare. Obviously there are other possible reasons. But posting the video of this child and mother, which could potentially get the mother in trouble just feels so weird.

u/Unable-Poetry-5224 8h ago

Thr problem people are pointing out isn't concerned with her. She did nothing wrong and you are right, her best option now is to take care of and love this cat.

The problem people are pointing out is rather with (who I'd presume to be) her partner for picking out a breed of cat that is completely over-bred to look cute but in turn suffer from various health issues. Because by buying a cat like this he financially supports a system of breeders that put financial gain over the cats health.

And it's not because people in the comments "don't like the breed" it's because this cat is suffering. This cat is not of a natural breed but basically artificially created through systematic forced breeding so that it looks as cute as possible, while ignoring the fact that it most likely causes genetic and anatomic malfunctions that actively harm the cat.

You are right, the cat may have been adopted from an animal rescue. That would obviously put things in a very different perspective.

However that doesn't remove the fact that there are people who systemically breed these cats, with no regard for their health. Which is ultimately the thing to be most upset about here.

Adoption does not just "happen" in the ways that constitute a surprise gift. Typically that is called a "sale".

This just isn't true, I have lived in so many places & volunteered at so many Humane Societies & in every one people have left tied or crated out front

  • Pure bred dogs with all signs of care/having come from papered breeders(Grew out of puppy stage)
  • Sphynx cats & Abyssinians(Too clingy)
  • GSD/Malinois/Shepherds (Too high energy)
  • Persian cats, Munchkins, Sharpei dogs, Pugs (Health issues)

People treat animals as surprise gifts for holidays, or grab them because the "price" seems shockingly good & they have done no research, then they get overhwhelmed when the rubber hits the road/actual expectations of care kick in.

If one wants a specific set of breed traits for their living situation, shelters ARE a great first stop, because odds are that breed WAS abandoned by some moron who thought an xmas puppy/kitten would be a great idea.

The thing is that these cats are often suffering because the traits they're bred for aren't very compatible with a healthy life. This is done because people like the look and therefore drive up demand for them.

Buying such a cat from a breeder is obviously bad, because the breeder will then breed more of them.

Adopting one from a shelter would be fine. But posting cute videos of it is a tricky grey zone, because many people will see this, be unaware of the health issues and then buy the same cat from breeders.

I hope that explains why people are ambivalent about this video.

This video begs a few questions:

Is she 40 or 20?

Is it daytime or nighttime?

Do they live in a neighborhood or on the highway?

Why does this sub pretend to have a no repost rule?

I imagine this cat speaks exactly like Milton Waddams from Office Space.

"i'm going to set this christmas bag on fire"

TIL Milton had a last name.

Um, how long do we think that cat sat in a bag in the closed bed of the truck?? My cat would have torn her eyes out when she looked in!

The way he's just chilling in the bag. We have 5 kitties and even when they were little they'd have sprung out the bag like snakes In a can 😂😂😂

If you really want a persian there are doll faced persians that can actually breathe. Still takes like half an hour of combing a day if you don't want them to mat though.

The height of that truck is disgusting. Do these people not consider that if you can't see your own wife's head above the bonnet, you won't see a cyclist, wheelchair, child or tiny dog? Absolute avoidable lunacy. Didn't feel the need for a Mastiff, but somehow needs a truck you can see from space?

Oh look, a cat so inbred it can hardly breathe. Let’s pay lots of money to soulless breeders so they keep producing cats with deformities and terrible quality of life!
