several breeders in recent years have been experimenting along these lines. The problem is that cats really are not tame animals, and the larger cats like these never lose their wildness, particularly as they get older, and are not good pets.
The person who breeds a truly docile larger or "wild" looking cat suitable for companion animals stands to make a fortune, but it hasn't happened yet.

cloud supposedly its super tame, the website says it gets along great with children and other pets, even more than a regular cat would. you know what sucks is, they neuter / spay them before you get them so you cant start breeding your own. maybe the chinese guy who comes in with bootleg dvds will have one soon
:fingerscrossed:

Me too. Always wanted to cuddle a big old tiger, dangerous or not! I can't have my cats, my ex took custody back after I had them for 3 years, because I moved. I visit them sometimes.

Except for the longer neck and more spots, he looks just like my kitty...and he was free.

Even if they were just as tame as your favorite lap cat, how many times has your lap cat cut/scratched you, just playing, or when startled?

She is beautiful, but would be much more beautiful skinned and streched out on my wall or as a custom hat.
