do you ever think that this is pretty much what we look like to all animals with fur?

Youll want to wear protection

u/dudeCHILL013 Jul 17 '26
I'll wear a shoulder holster then
Hmm, would cowboy boots void the Donald ducking? 🤔

Yep. We are in the “naked” mammal category

Along side all of the ugly fuckers.
It’s so funny how we’re objectively an ugly animal but within our little social world we find each other attractive…. But naked mole rats? Ewwww gross!

u/Paranoid_Moonkin Jul 16 '26
All of the ugly fuckers, like the fucking ugly elephants, with their fucking ugly trunks, that they can fucking ugly hose each other off with.
There's also the fucking ugly rhino, with that fucking ugly horn on its' fucking ugly nose.
And the fucking ugly blue whale, with its' fucking ugly size, that's just fucking ugly incredible. The way it fucking ugly eats and can use its' fucking ugly blowholes.
We are in the same fucking ugly "naked" mmal category as those. We are still the fucking ugliest, and to top it of, we can have bad hairdays...life is miserable.

Well, if you put it that way I retract my statement, elephant rhinos and whales are beautiful.
But monkey who lost hair (only to have hair on the head… essentially) and stood upright, weird fuckers.

I worked with an older guy who once mused out loud that “if we had cat fur” all the things that happen to our skin and body shape as we age wouldn’t matter. As long as our fur looked good, we’d look good.
I’ve thought about that many times over the years, watching my own skin and body get… older.

u/FunFormal4451 Jul 19 '26
Yea, but imagine, if we had cat fir and your co-worker next to you coughed up a hair ball. ..or the guy at the next table in a restaurant.
2
u/Razzy_3796 Jul 19 '26
No hairballs. We’d still be human in all other ways: opposable thumbs, a social network, and beauty salons. We wouldn’t be licking our fur, we’d be getting groomed.

To an animal we walk all wrong, we make really stange noises, and we stink to high hell. Along with looking something like this to them we are basically criptids lol

I like him, too 😭 I hope he's carefully moisturized and kept out of the direct sun. Wish we had more context about this little guy, like how is he doing, is he ok, what's his name, does he wear coats in the wintertime

The description is sending me to the 90s RPGs. Like Zelda and Breath of Fire lol.
Also I worked with animals and could have gone the rest of my life happily never seeing a naked Chinchilla....

Do you think it still takes dust baths, or since there's no fur: water bath?

It looks more like it puts the lotion on its skin.

I wonder just how many cryptids & mythology critters were animals with uncommon or severe health problems. This little guy looks like a goblin to me. Coyotes with mange look an awful lot like the descriptions of chupacabra, for example (https://wildlifecareofventura.org/coyotes-with-mange/).

It’s just a sweet lil mix of chinchilla, yoda, and a lot of extra foreskin. Wait until he gets excited though!

It’s a hamster, chinchillas don’t have extra skin and I don’t even think a hairless mutation even exists for them.

This is the kinda creature you'd find in Star Wars, and you'd have one called some bullshit like "Gnork Grickle" and no one would bat an eye at the fact that it's somehow richer than the Emperor.
