Probably some really bad matting. It looks like a long haired cat and I try to keep my long haired babies free of those

This makes me happy! He's hilarious but I felt guilty laughing before this 😁

God, this photo. It always makes me think someone attached the wrong size face.

I'll offer another potential reason why this poor guy is shaved; if he's got a condition that needs a topical cream or medicated shampoo or similar, then this guarantees the stuff gets right to the skin, where it's needed. His skin looks fine, but you never can tell with fleas. * tiny rimshot *

It looks like a chihuahua-cat hybrid made by AI

Flat faced kitties have a much harder time cleaning themselves so if I had to guess, this was after a sanitary/dematting groom. At least I certainly hope it is.

PSA: Do not buy/adopt flat faced pets without fully knowing what goes into caring for them.
