The Leopard Cat that i posted scooted with my second shot and disappeared..will be looking out for this stray..in the future................................................................................................ In 1889, Harrison Weir wrote in "Our Cats and All About Them": There is a rich-coloured brown tabby hybrid to be seen at the Zoological Society Gardens in Regent's Park, between the wild cat of Bengal and a tabby she-cat. It is handsome, but very wild. These hybrids, I am told, will breed again with tame variety, or with others. However, in 1927, Mr Boden-Kloss wrote to "Cat Gossip" regarding hybrids between wild and domestic cats in Malaya: "I have never heard of hybrids between bengalensis (the Leopard Cat) and domestic cats. One of the wild tribes of the Malay Peninsula has domesticated cats, and I have seen the woman suckling bengalensis kittens, but I do not know whether the latter survive and breed with the others!"http://www.messybeast.com/small-hybrids/hybrids.htm

This cat looks similar to my Fuzzy but he has a much bushier tail. He's pretty big and would make a great hunter.

Thanks so much for sharing with my group.
