Asian Golden Cat

      This is an Indochinese Golden Cat (Pardofelis temminckii temminckii)

      CST has a golden cat?
    • TeaLovingDave
      Yep - a surplus animal bred at Parc des Felins.

      So it is possibly the animal you saw as a kitten - and if not, you still may have seen this individual.

      If this is, perhaps that is why they want the Thrigby animal too ?

      Not entirely sure this is the case, a guide said to me they were looking at some of the cats from thrigby, and they hope to bring a couple of them in. I believe he mentioned the golden cat but not a 100% certain.

      Ok, it would be nice to think that the Thrigby Golden cat and the CST Golden cat were both the same sub-species ? Though we don`t even know the sexes of either do we ??

      The CST golden cat is a male
    • zootiger
      But as I said, i'm not 100% sure it's the golden cat that CST want from Thrigby!
    • TeaLovingDave
      I doubt it as the Thrigby animal is a Chinese Golden Cat (Pardofelis temminckii dominicanorum) - although the owner of CST does not believe any of the subspecific splits in animals held within Europe are valid......

      They are not.
