Would you consider these cats the same species?


Thoughts on this and much more starting  tomorrow. Returning soon to full service-- the books go slowly, but too many good things to share...

(And Annie D-- recognize these creatures?)

Are those Bengal Cats? I've played with one before, and it had a similar appearance, and a temperament that was only just barely this side of what you'd call domesticated... from thirty yards, if you squinted really hard in just the right light...

Either way, they're beautiful.

hard to say-
-less different to look at than a regular cheetah and a 'king' cheetah, so they *could* just be color-types; but a second species of tigrina just made the news--Are these examples?

We had an African Wild Cat that had crossed with a domestic Tabby that we always took to the Bush (a hell of a mouser and other things) when I lived in Mozambique. She would spend the entire season in camp with us and then we'd pack her up and carry her home when we left. We spayed her in camp the first year with the help of a visiting Vet to keep her from breeding with the wild population. A very independent bird she was, gave the Vervet Monkeys a fit lol.
