Fishing cat swimming

[amazingdany]

Unlike my Siamese cat.

Very cunning,not fooled by that rubber duck.I think it should be called the doggy paddle cat

[Silkie341]

Their ears are small and otter like while their toes are webbed thus showing their adaptation to water. Fascinating species and although I know of at least one domesticated one they do have a stronger hunting instinct and it would be risky to have them around a home. If you do a GIS you can see some pictures of one that lives in a Russian family home that IIRC was rescued from a private zoo.

@4emonas

just get a life...or a pair of glasses for that matter because it clearly says that this is a species that likes water.

[OlaCola03]

[capnquack]

@4emonas You're an idiot. It's a TYPE of cat that likes water.

[schchaos]

@4emonas It's actually a species of cat that is naturally adapted to life near water and they literally catch fishes in the water when in the wild... and they CAN swim, just like how a tiger doesn't fear water -.-

So awesome, we need to keep these things around for our children to experience.

@DKaitlynn Actually it is a breed of wild cat called a "Fishing Cat". This is NOT a bengal.

[strawberrynmilk]

Oh~~

How cute...

[Caracalover]

This is a breed of cat that is called a Fishing Cat. They are losing thier natural habitat due to man's ever expanding numbers. They do well in a captive setting, but do not make good pets, since they do require special needs and are one of the stinkiest cats.

[BrundukasLT]

@Caracalover why do they stink?

[Caracalover]

@BrundukasLT Why is always a tough one to answer, they just do. If I were to start guessing, I would say it is so they can mark a territory that is often wet, so the scent marking needs to be heavier. But I don't guess much.

[dubsoulkitten]

looks kinda like a bengal

[whattheschmidt]

[Ebrech]

?? was that a real cat? looked more like a cub lynx or u know something wild
