Every Species of Kitten
To celebrate the USA’s win–and it is a win, in spite of all the very real concerns–I thought I’d make another cat post, because they make people happy and it’s a happy day! Going to try to find three images per species, but some are pretty hard to find as many of these cats are rare and/or elusive!
First off, the subfamily of roaring kittens! Pantherinae:
Clouded leopard (Neofelis nebulosa):



Sunda clouded leopard (Neofelis diardi), not common:


Leopard (Panthera pardus):



Tiger (Panthera tigris):



Snow leopard (Panthera uncia):



Lion (Panthera leo):



Jaguar (Panthera onca):


Second and final (and much bigger) extant subfamily in Felidae, which is the purring kittens! Felinae:
Marbled cat (Pardofelis marmorata) does not want you to see its babies!:

Asian golden cat (Catopuma temminckii):



Bay cat (Catopuma badia), babies are elusive to say the least:

Serval (Leptailurus serval):



Caracal (Caracal caracal):



African golden cat (Caracal aurata), this is literally all I could find in the way of kittens:



Pampas cat (Leopardus colocola):


Andean mountain cat (Leopardus jacobita), very elusive baby:

Ocelot (Leopardus pardalis):



Margay (Leopardus wiedii):



Kodkod (Leopardus guigna), when the adult already looks like a kitten, the kitten looks…exactly the same as the adult, just smaller:



Geoffroy’s cat (Leopardus geoffroyi):



Oncilla (Leopardus tigrinus):



Souther tiger cat (Leopardus guttulus):



Bobcat (Lynx rufus):



Canada lynx (Lynx canadensis):



Eurasian lynx (Lynx lynx):



Iberian lynx (Lynx pardinus):



Cheetah (Acinonyx jubatus):


Cougar (Puma concolor):



Jaguarundi (Herpailurus yaguaroundi):



Pallas cat (Otocolobus manul):



Rusty-spotted cat (Prionailurus rubiginosus):



Leopard cat (Prionailurus bengalensis):



Fishing cat (Prionailurus viverrinus):



Flat-headed cat (Prionailurus planiceps), couldn’t even find any photos, had to screenshot a video:
Sunda leopard cat (Prionailurus javanensis), another not easy to find kitten!:

Jungle cat (Felis chaus):



Black-footed cat (Felis nigripes), just remember this species has one of the highest kill rates of any cat:



Sand cat (Felis margarita):


Chinese mountain cat (Felis bieti):



European wildcat (Felis sylvestris):



African wildcat (Felis lybica):



and finally, Domestic cat (Felis catus)!:



Remember, there is only one species of kitten on this list that belongs as a pet, and that is our beautiful domestic cat. Some of the wild species are endangered, and as precious as all these babies, the wild ones are best left to the wild. :)
