Stewie The Caracal Thinks I'm His Mother | African Cat Acts Like Kitten & Cub - Rubs Nurses & Purrs

[@Jimmyxsx]

What a cuddly little death machine.

[@nobs3075]

My neighbor just killed a cougar and is going to make sausage. I hope I get a taste. Humans are the most numerous cuddly little death machines. Edit: So many losers, that have commented, have no clue - probably ignorant vegans. I was just expanding on the humor, but many have no sense of humor. So, I will spell it out for the morons: Cougars and humans kill for food, though some animals can kill for the fun of it, but nothing like what asshole humans do, just for the fun of it. Then there are governments that, mostly out of corruption, greed or hatred, send troops to kill/murder millions of innocent people. So like I said, humans are the most numerous cuddly little death machines.

They mentioned that it would be a 'soft' release; this means that although human contact will be reduced and eventually cut off altogether, Stewie and his brother will still be given a safe shelter they can return to and supplemental feedings until they get the hang of hunting on their own. Soft releases are very common for rescue-rehab orphans, from squirrels to big cats, and flying foxes.

you do realize all cats knead, right? they are known for their surprise massages, which is both relaxing, and painful because they like to use the claw sometimes lol. they also like to cuddle the person they actually love, you are not a big scary predator for them, but the sweet person who cuddles, and they feel warm, safe, and loved in your arms. they try not too obvious about their affection because they have pride/prestige, but come home sad one day and they will do all they can to cheer you up, you better not mention it to them later tho, prestige and pride and all :P

My pleasure! I really like caracals. Perfect size, nice temperament if raised right, can be rewilded easy, and like lil cougars. I may rescue some in the future because I like them so much and prevalent in South Africa. Maybe setup a rehab/rewilding mini project aside from my cheetah one.

[@Militia_Dei777]

@@AGreenApple_ These cats fully grown can weigh up to 20kgs, that's basically 4 times heavier than the average house cat. The question is which dog is brave enough to chase one.

[@AGreenApple_]

@@Militia_Dei777 yea Ik they’re massive but the thing is most guard dogs are in the 40kg - 50kg range, and the even more muscular ones are heavier than the average woman who weighs in at 50kgish. So I think a big guard dog or any kind of guard dog who outweighs this cat could kill it if it managed to bite it. If the cat gets on top of its back it’s game over. Have you seen the caracals teeth and claws? It’s a fucking monster.

[@lezy9126]

The facial features of caracals are quite close to those of the common house cat, aren't they.

[@CheetahWhisperer]

Notice the black and white mascara around their eyes... that is so they can hunt in day or night. The white reflects light from stars and the moon so they can see better at night and the black absorbs light of the day to reduce the glare so they can hunt better in the day. See if your cat has this or others you know.

[@lezy9126]

I've got a female european cat, and, at least, to me, there is some semblance of a surrounding black mascara and a brighter zone of fur around the eye. Of course much dimmer, but i've seen that both caracals and european cats have those somewhat cut black stripes surrounding the eyes. That is, that, for example, in cheetahs, i'd percieved that stripe to be longer and more curved.

[@Crusader1815]

What I notice about them is that the behavior of socialized caracals is so similar to that of common house cats. Some are friendlier than others, but then so are house cats and even people. That's what's so great about cats in general... they are all individuals. I think that, after house cats and their African wildcat cousins, and maybe the Asian leopard cat, caracals are probably the most domesticable species of cat... even more so than the more commonly domesticated serval. Maybe that's just because servals seem so high-strung by comparison. Both species show affection and like to groom their human friends, but caracals just seem so much more laid back and cool.
