It's possible that your permissions do not allow you to see or modify the .htacces.

It's more likely that your FTP program is filtering the files you see. In your setup (with the FTP program) you should be able to experiment with filters that will allow you see the .htaccess.

In cuteFTP I have to choose to "enable filters" and then tell cuteFTP to let the server filters do the filtering, not cuteFTP. That's usually enough.
