Domestic Cats Heritage?
473509
The domestic cat is a member of the genus Felis.  Lions and tigers are members of the genus Panthera.  The house cat is as closely related to the lion as it is to the tiger.  \n\nThis rotten forum won't let me draw a picture, so here's the best way I can explain it in text.\n\nImagine you're an only child, but your uncle (father's brother) has two children.  Which of your uncle's children are you more closely related to?  The answer is neither, you are equally related to both of them.\n\nIt's the same here.  Panthera and Felis share a common ancestor many millions of years ago, while lions and tigers only separated a short time ago.

Not in nature but in zoos and animal parks they are breeding ligers and tigons.  Ligers are the largest cat in the world.  Such a strange place the US is, 2 people who love each other can not legally be married but it's okay to breed a liger.

Hey...I really admire your question! I'm a cat-lover and I think cat is the prettiest and most tamed animal with high intelligence and endless curiosity--they have different characters and of course they have thoughts and memories...\nIt will remember...\n1.The first hiss to you when you brought it home...and the feeling of being threatened by the huge strange creature...=)\n2. Your call which he never answered,--he still doesn't see any reason   to stop what he is doing=)  \n4.Constantly Interrupting you phone calls for he was jealous...\n3.The ecstasy -- the catnip which makes it act crazy...\nAnyway ...it will carry his memory from kitty hood to adulthood...Yeah, if you love it...the memory with you will become the most sweet part of it,love it can cherish their love and care,yeah?\nGood luck!

My best friend married a man that loves cats. And he has a friend that loves cats. I'm from the country, so I don't know if that makes a difference.

Professor F*ckface, who happens to be a cat from the future in Ann Arbor, Michigan, can give you the most accurate answer. I'm not joking either.

A double header!  You're in luck, I know a lady who owns one and it just gave birth to a litter last week!  I will buy you one, since you so kindly offered to get me a hairless Sphynx cat!

Felis silvestris is a species which includes small wild cats and domestic cats.  They are all the same species, in the sense that they can interbreed, but different subspecies, in that they are geographically or behaviorally separated so that they rarely *do* interbreed.\n\nF. silvestris catus is the subspecies we call the domestic cat.\nOther subspecies are F. silvestris lybica (North African wild cat), F. silvestris sarda (Sardinian and Sicilian wild cats), F. silvestris ornata (India to Iran), etc.\n\nOther than that, your question seems to be one of a series of questions from your homework ... without knowing what "the preceding House Cat" means, nobody can help you.

The distinction between feral cats and stray cats. How are they different? How are they the same?\n\nShould people be allowed to remove them from their property if they become a nuisance? Why, or why not?

A well looked after tom cat.  Freedom of being an animal combined with all the comforts of being a human sounds great!

I have to say that Tigers are my fave too! I especially love the Sumatran tiger. I love all of the cat family; the grace, strength, power and intelligence. I wish I could have my own tiger (well behaved of course) but three gorgeous (and often trying) cats is probably enough for me!

The most common bird u see in housing estate is the Myna. (Or affectionately called "Ah Chai", dun ask me why). It actually originated from India. Probably brought here in the earlier years during when Singapore had extensive trading activities with India peninsula.

polar bears are actually in the 'cat' family. they have their own language which is similar to italian. i read somewhere in a magazine that their hair is actually blue or clear or something but the light makes it look white. they use downy to stay so soft and they have food allergies to hotdogs and bird seed. \nthey use charmin to wipe their 'bare bottoms' after they use the loo.

Pretty story, but genetically impossible.  Cats and dogs have a common ancestor, sure, but so do cats and people, and dogs and mice, and every single mammal that's around.  Cats and dogs belong to different taxonomical families - they have different chromosome nubers and different genes on different chromosomes that mean that no such thing as pittens or kuppies could be produced.  Yes, horses and donkeys can breed to produce a STERILE offspring - the mule or hinny, but that's because they're extremely closely related members of the equus family with very similar behaviour/courtship.  Cats and dogs aren't even that close.\n\nAnd puppies couldn't be born from implantation in a cat's womb - the DNA would be rejected by the mother as completely foreign.  Its being tried between camelids (alpacas/llamas etc) and an embryo doesn't implant even between these two very closely related species, so there's no way we can implant two such diverse species as a cat and dog, who are as closely related as a human and a lemur, or a horse and a rhinocerous.
