Ever Heard Of The Black Footed Cat?

[kittyluv387]

We were hoping to see them at fossil rim but they just had babies so we couldn't disturb them. Honestly they are so freaking adorable! But apparently very vicious with a kill rate of 60%. They are the smallest cat in Africa (and the cutest). Google some pics. You won't regret it.

This face!

Public TV had a special on various cat breeds some months back. The black footed cat was one they covered. The do look like the very cutest of little tabbies!

I wouldn't be able to resist the cuteness!
I hope I won't accidentally (or ignorantly) pick one of those and bring to my apartment, thinking it's just one of the homeless cats.

He is adorable and certainly doesn' look like a predator, what a face!

Oh, so cute!

They're known as the "deadliest cats on the planet".

I know. Who would have thought!

 

[Jem]

How on earth can this be the deadliest cat!!!! My heart can't take that face!

But just for reference.....

No matter what, still a beautiful cat.

They're so little, too! Only 3-5 pounds.

Sand cats are even cuter . But they don't have such nice markings.

What a shame that one of the deadliest cats on the planet is also one of the cutest!
I love Bobcats too; whilst we're on the subject of killer kitties.

I think I'd risk getting a few fingers bitten off and a shredded face for one of those cuties.

At least you probably would not have a mouse or rat problem

Fossil Rim in Glen Rose? I didn't know they had those there. Of course it's been at least five years since I've been to Fossil Rim. It is SO expensive, and I'm sure prices have gone up. I assume these cute little kitties are in an enclosure and don't roam free? I would love to have one jump in my car window so I could pet it!

Yup that's the one! We didn't get to see but I imagine they would be in an enclosure similar to cheetahs, but smaller of course.

Yes their faces are just too damn irresistable if you ask me.

 

[tabbysia]

I want to kiss one directly on the mouth.

 

[DreamerRose]

I saw them on the PBS show on cats. They are TINY, but adorable. Smallest cat ever.

 

[kittyluv387]

I think we should create a fan club haha.

 

[DreamerRose]

Don't you wish these cats could be domesticated?

 

[ArchyCat]

Many record of anyone trying? Or maybe a cross with a domestic cat breed?
