I saw this article and as a cat lover I have to ask do the cats know they look like freaks AND do the other cats tease them for looking strange?

I don't see the point messing with an animal and with nature and I think it's just starting a fad; people will get them just to show them off like kids show off their toys. Look at the Hollywood stars with their dogs on their arm...it's a fashion statement.
