Hello Friends, I found this while checking the yahoo news and found it interesting. It's about a car being stolen but what was in the trunk is what interested me. This rare breed of Asian Leopard Cat is about the size of a house cat. Soooo cute...I want one too. http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20090428/od_afp/russiaanimalscrimeenvironmentoffbeat;_ylt=AuDGQ67pROs6aMFhx9e2x254hMgF xoxoxoxoxo

That is indeed one beautiful cat. I doubt if it would make a pet, people who try to make pets out of wild cats are not very successful. I've know several that tried with the N. American bob cat and after the cats had ruined their homes had to give them up to animal rescue.

I bet the thieves were after the cat and not the car. the cat was more expensive than the car, so they must have known the value of both loot. Anyway, I do agree that the leopard cat is very cute. I'd like to have one too but I'd have to work my entire life to be able to afford it.

I have seen this cat somewhere, and it is so unique. It is pretty.I do not want to own wild animals, but I certainly can admire them.

Oh My Goodness how gorgeous is that little thing? Gorgeous but probably a dangerous little thing too! Wonder if it is illegal to have as a pet or to catch or whatever and that is why they wouldn't say where it had been 'procured' xxxx

I had heard about this breed before. They certainly have a sweet-looking face. Who wouldn't want one?

What a pretty cat. I don't blame you for wanting one. I don't know if these cats have been or are ready to be domesticated, but a cat you might consider is the Savannah.
