Extreme Pets - Fishing Cat
|
This Russian family does know how to keep their pet cat happy - by bathing with it and feeding it live catfish and chicken. This is not the ordinary house cat though as it is a medium sized cat called the Fishing Cat. It’s habitat ranged from Sumatra, Java, India, Pakistan to Sri Lanka. |
Heavily and powerfully built, the fishing cat is ferocious and dangerous that are known to be able to drive off a pack of dogs and one in captivity has been known to break off its enclosure into another one and kill a leopard twice it size. They are friendly to humans if they have been acquainted since young.

These people are stupid and cruel. That cat is not meant to live indoors. And what the hell? Do they get off on watching it kill defenseless animals? How is this any different that Michael Vick and the dog abuse? This is not funny or interesting. It’s just sickening.

This cat would be dead in the wild. If you recognize that there is no wild in the world anymore, i.e. you have skunks, racoons, fox eating out of suburban garbage cans, and cougars and bobcats have no where to go and are getting hit by cars, hunted with dogs… and if you think it is bad in America. You have no idea how bad cats are treated in other countries. That cat is lucky to be alive and hopefully he might contribute to helping keep his species from going extinct, because they are almost gone in the wild. And if you know anything about felid behavior, a cat is a cat is a cat. They love clean, soft beds, laying in the sunshine, being waited on hand and foot (even tigers do).
It is time to question what you were brainwashed to believe as a child “wild animals belong in the wild”… what wild?!?!?! What little there is left sucks; they starve to death constantly; they don’t have enough space for two males to exist and one male kills the other; the list is endless of the problems they now face in the wild that they didn’t 30 years ago. Anyone who wants wild animals to live in the wild in this day and age wants to torture them. We have to save them in captivity and maybe if Mother Nature ever returns to Natural, we can release them back.

Normally, I dislike the concept of people keeping wild animals since a lot of people don’t respect them enough to see that they shouldn’t be tamed. They refuse to allow them their instincts, and treat them like some kind of commodity that they “want” to “own”.
However, I find myself respecting these people. This cat seems comfortable, and they’re still allowing him to hunt and retain his instincts. It seems like they’re just co-habiting their space with him, peacefully. He looks happy and comfortable.
These people seem awesome and respectable, to me. Normally, like I said, I have very little respect for people who keep wild animals as “pets”, but these people don’t seem to be taming him or even trying to.
Amazing. To these people, if you read this: thank you for understanding and treating this fishing cat respectfully. Not many people do so to animals.

That is a kick-ass kitty-cat! I’ll fire my dog and buy one of these! :))
March 19th, 2008 at 12:26 pm
wow, really loved seeing those shots.
i have always kept cats and i can see that one is just like a larger version of the cats we have here. bigger & more dangerous but with all the same instincts and likes/dislikes. (except our cats dont have lasers :-p )
that one seems to be happy, relaxed and enjoy its life - and it’s well socialised too so must have low anxiety - excellent job, fishing cat family
wish we could have those here…

oh by the way for all the viewers who think it is cruel to keep a fishing cat (responsibly) as a pet, google the African Wild Cat…
you might find it looks suspiciously like Moggy the tabby pussycat… because, it IS. it’s the exact same creature.

Obviously if they live in Russia there would be times when it is too cold and snowbound to let the cats outside, which is probvablt where he gets the chicken in winter. I’d be a bit relunctant to let puss have his chicken ont he parquet floor, I think I’d be putting him in the laundry, but they are feeding him the way we should all be feeding our cats. The chicken looks dead to me from pic 1.
Feathers and all is normal and keeps their digestion healthy. And he is an Asian fishing cat, a recognised breed, and giving him fish to catch is kind and good. OK, it’s tough for the fish, but it has already been caught and is destined to be eaten anyway.
More power to them for recognising their pets’ needs and catering to them.

Fishing cat, you are our protector. Will you protect our very own river if it comes down to it?
