A young European wildcat. She looks so harmless and cute, but she will never get tame. I find it so fascinating that our domesticated house cats are not the descendants of the European wildcats, but are descended from the African Wildcat and found their way to our latitudes a long time ago.

Scotland's wildcats are a unique and highly threatened sub-population of the European wildcat, Felis silvestris silvestris

Although they may look similar to domestic (pet) cats, they do have some unique features, including their blunt and bushy tails and their genetic make-up! It can be very difficult to tell the difference between a wildcat, a domestic tabby, or a hybrid from looks alone

Thanks to their un-broken striped coats, wildcats have earned the nickname 'Highland tigers'

As meat-eaters, they spend long hours sleeping and digesting their food during the day, and are most active around dawn and dusk

The desire for freedom and life (Der Wunsch nach Freiheit und Leben)

Daihatsu Wildcat in Bremen-Sebaldsbrück.

Named "Callie" by the Saving Wildcats project, she is one of many Scottish Wildcats bred and released into the Cairngorms National Park.

 

She was initially tracked and has had successful litters since her release. She now frequents the Glenmore area, including the Reindeer Centre where she hunts the ducks that steal the reindeer feed - which is where I saw her.

 

It really was quite something to witness this up close and such a great project restoring the presence of these cats in the Scottish Highlands.

Wildcat Creek Bridge was built in 1925 at Austa, near Walton, near OR 126. The 75-foot bridge carries Austa Road over Wildcat Creek near its confluence with the Siuslaw River. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.

I spent a wonderful day at the British Wildlife Centre on one of their photo days. Great company and lots of great subjects but these wildcats and their kittens were my favourite of the day!

What is this kitten dreaming of? Just like a child it sucks on a twig and dreamily looks up to the sky

 

Wovon träumt dieses Kätzchen? Wie ein Kind nuckelt es an einem Zweig und blickt verträumt in den Himmel
