That poser guy recently that was in the news for having one , I assumed it was a special occurance he had one. What has the guy who got cut up had to say greyman Link to post Share on other sites

What has the guy who got cut up had to say greyman He,s in his 80s mate and was asleep when it happened it's the authority's saying it was a cat, if you have the money and the inclination any cat is still easily available, like the bloke who lost the clouded leopard recently, there are still lots of them bringing things in it just requires stricter paper work and the accommodation has to be in a inner and outer fenced enclosure and have 24 hour cctv and things like that, the serval is the pet cat at the moment for those after a big cat without so much hassle also think domestic X servals will be flooding onto the market next when the £12000 bulldog fad wears thin Link to post Share on other sites

Probably not without a lot of leg work and a small miracle, we only need around 200 cats in the whole of the U.K. To maintain a breeding population we are not in America were they are travelling the same trail every few days, if I miss my opportunity this winter it will be a year at least before I get the chance to get it again as that seems to be a normal cycle, I have one spot I,ve found two kills in two years on the same track, so next year a month before the last two kills I will put up a camera, if I,m really lucky it will come back through but that's three years of searching, working out routes and roughly one week at the start of December it seems to pass by that I have to get my picture and that's if my camera does,nt get found and stolen, run out of batteries or malfunction, this is,nt India or America and despite what others may say the odds are stacked massively against me I,m searching for a real needle in a haystack, the things I see along the way make the journey worthwhile for me even if I never get to the end, I,m so in tune with my surroundings because of all the days of walking while scouring the ground for pug-marks listening to the jays and magpies to point me to kill sites and scouring trees for scratch,s and other hidden secrets while working my dog pack as well it's brilliant and if I never get it I won't be to gutted because the hunts been so good 1 Link to post Share on other sites

What has the guy who got cut up had to say greyman That was a Serval he had, Savannah cats are a cross between Servals and domestic moggies and you can own them without any of the licensing required to own a Serval. They come up on the freead sites from time to time and there's breeders popping up all over the place because kittens sell for up to 5 grand 2 Link to post Share on other sites

keepdiggin 9,559 Posted January 27, 2018 Report Share Posted January 27, 2018 Surely if there are cats out there then they would be interbreeding leopards,cougars lynx jaguars. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Greyman 28,208 Posted January 28, 2018 Report Share Posted January 28, 2018 Your dead right mate except Jaguars, the first three are general hunters and all three thrive in multiple situations usually unnoticed by people, the jag is a specialist hunter and the third biggest cat,it would struggle to survive un noticed for long, I have seen several pictures of cats that have the size but not the appearance of the three you mention and the only conclusion is they are hybrids 1 Link to post Share on other sites
