Did you know that the smallest wild cat in Africa is also the deadliest cat? Yeah, it is so tiny it could fit in the palm of your hand, and yet, it has the highest kill rate. Now, that's what we call murdermittens. This kitten looks like a completely regular run-of-the-mill house kitten, harmless and awwdorable. Really, if we saw it in the wild, we would probably wonder if we should rescue it.
But, no, small wild cats are not ones that you want to take home. It is not easy to take care of a wild cat, and their place is not in our homes anyway. Apparently though, you are more likely to get confused than you may think. Let tumblr help and show you which small wild cats are actually not up for adoption. Be amazed and 'aww' all at the same time.
Oh, we are so ready for this. We have been fawning over cats - regular cats, kittens, big cats, small cats, big wild cats - for so long, but we know that we have not given enough love to small wild cats. That is our sin to amend for, and we are so ready. Deep breath, learn and 'aww'.
That is it. We are doomed. We want to adopt this guy. We know he is dangerous, we know we should not pet him, we know he is supposed to be in the wild. But wow, look at that fluff, look at how majestic he is, look at those perfect airplane ears. We do not know how we will get through the rest of this thread.
