Just a baby, 3 months old, like the YouTube phenom.

At Charlie’s house tonight, but what species of cat is this?

  1. Way cute…lucky you!

    I’m horrendously allergic to cats…it takes exactly 4 mins for one to bring on red eyes and sneezing. Unfortunately there’s no such thing as a hypo-allergenic cat.

  2. A special visitor from Argentina…

    And she’s still biting…

  3. Well, if you did as the kid did in the video and stick your finger into the cat’s mouth, you kinda had it coming.

    Yes, they’re cute at that age.

  4. Oh, so adorable! Lucky you!

    Is it a baby snow leopard? I would easily recognize a full-grown one but maybe this little one is it.

  5. It looks like an ocelot.

  6. Qué pasa, gato?! |-)

    I think that she thinks you are edible. So she bites you. It’s puppies’ nature!

  7. wow! the irony!…i almost fell out of bed when i saw this! i’ve been in hospital since last thursday because of a cat bite on my hand!!! (that went terribly wrong!) i’m just starting to get mobility back in my right hand. EVERYONE: cat bites can be terribly evil if they puncture your skin and go deep…. REALLY important not to hesitate to get to the docs and get on antibiotics!!! they notoriously carry nasty bacteria that can turn into.. limb and life threatening infections in the unsuspecting! (i’ve been told that human bites are worse!) steve..i’ll send a pic via email later
    i hate cats…love cats…hate cats…love cats….love torturing cats. 😛 and will love hating them even more once my hand is usable again.

  8. Is that a ,a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bengal_%28cat%29">Bengal kitten? Bengal is a breed, not a species. I believe her species would just be catus. Genus felis. Do I get a prize?

    oh my lordy, she’s gorgeous! I’m a total sucker for kitties.

  9. By the way, nice summery tan you’ve got there, Handsome!

  10. To the kitten, everything in life is a toy. Some toys are edible and taste good, others are dangerous as they bite back, still others squeal when you chew on them. I think you fall into this category and possibly into the ‘tasting good’ category.

  11. adorable… that cat is saying: stop all that silly typing and enjoy the warm lap top

    bingo vennettaj: it is a baby Geoffroy’s cat , a wild one from South America.

    As she grows older, the spots will spread apart, as if stretched over a larger body. She has a strong tail and can sit upright on it.

  12. boo! I lose. But i learned that there’s something called a Geoffroy’s Cat! Very cool.

  13. Too bad so many are hunted. The fur is indeed beautiful!

  14. drona – have you looked into hypoallergenic pet claims? I have just started… and the intrigue is fascinating.

  15. "These cats, can weigh up to 40 lbs (according to Lifestyle Pets) and cost US$22,000 which meant the Savannah cats bred by Shirk were each resold as Asheras for around 4 times their original price. "Hypoallergenic" versions sell for $37,000 and versions with rare markings sell for up to $125,000"

    The Internet is no business at all, where did I have my head at?! I should be breeding and selling hypoallergenic cats instead!
