About the Lykoi

The Lykoi, often called the "Werewolf Cat," is a natural mutation derived from domestic shorthairs. It is distinguished by its unique coat pattern of partial hairlessness, where a roan mixture of hair and bare skin creates a striking, wolf-like appearance. This breed is lean, athletic, and known for its dog-like loyalty, high intelligence, and active, inquisitive nature.
