We love all cats, but we can’t help but admire the unique, hairless look of a Sphynx!

Arlo, a kitty who lives in Los Angeles, according to WTVY, is internet-famous and known for one unusual feature: his knees!

While there are lots of photos and videos on his Instagram page — cheekily known as @the.dark_lord — we love the look he gives his admirers in the video below:

Assuming his username is a reference for Harry PotterLord Voldemort, we can see a little of the bald the resemblance… although, Arlo is way cuter. And check out those gorgeous green eyes!

It seems like this quirky cat enjoys naps on top of the refrigerator. But despite the menacing music in the clip below, he doesn’t seem so scary to us!

“Plotting world domination and how to make these hoomans my slaves! All hail your Dark Lord!!!” Arlo’s humans jokingly captioned this post.

We love how kitties are never afraid to show their true colors! Keep on being awesome, Arlo!
