This is a fascinating subject! Lately I’ve learned that certain wild cat breeds will mate with domestic cats, producing some pretty interesting offspring. I believe there are breeders of such cats, but I don’t know how good of a pet they make. There is some anecdotal information online, but I’m not sure if I’d take any of it to be factual without doing my own research.

If you have any interest in this sort of thing, I’d say get a qualified breeder to help you. Also, it’s possible there are laws in certain states prohibiting ownership of such animals.

From photographs I’ve seen, they’re quite beautiful! The ones I’ve heard of are the Savannah cat and the Bengal, both relatively small.
