It looks incredibly like a domestic tabby but, from the Wikipedia entry, it acts very different.
ReplyDeleteI love kitties! This little one is a beauty. Like your maximum cards.
ReplyDeleteI wonder why they call it a black-footed cat ... I would have called it black spotted cat. Or maybe wow-those-are-huge-lantern-eyed cats.
ReplyDeleteThey are beautiful though - I hate seeing them listed as 'threatened' on the conservation status. Sigh.
Happy PFF, Dorin!
such a beautiful animal. I hadn't heard of it before. Thanks.
