A warm home is the lifelong desire of every furry child. Nowadays, more and more people choose to rescue and adopt stray cats. What a loving thing to bring the little pitiful I met by chance home on the roadside, sign a love contract with each other, accompany each other and warm each other! However, there are also some cute little cuties that you can’t take home just if you want to!

If you encounter these cats below on the road, don't worry about "incorporating", because many of them are nationally protected animals. If you accidentally raise these cats, you may face the risk of fines, confiscation or even criminal liability. It is a veritable "sitting beast in prison".

1. Ocelot cats. Ocelot cats are wild cats. They mainly live in mountain forest areas, suburban shrubs and forest villages. They are widely distributed in China. As national and world-class protected animals, leopard cats are forbidden. Because leopard cats are wild and difficult to tame, if they encounter them outdoors, please stay away immediately and do not attempt to raise them. It is more important to note that leopard cats are national second-class protected animals. If you do not obtain a national license, it is an illegal act. In mild cases, you will be subject to administrative penalties given by the wildlife protection department, and in severe cases, you may constitute a crime. 2. Servals. The servals are distributed in western, central and eastern Africa. They are like a small cheetah, with slender torso and limbs. The fur is yellow and has dark spots. The dark spots are integrated with the longitudinal marks on the back and head, which are very handsome and mysterious. The servals have amazing jumping power, like to jump, and are aggressive. They will not let you touch like pet cats, which is dangerous. In my country, servals are national second-class protected animals, and the sentencing method of arbitrary buying, selling and transporting is equivalent to selling illegally transporting national second-class protected animals. The servals have long been banned in China, and it is illegal to raise them again. 3. Black-footed cat Black-footed cat is named Black-footed cat because its soles are particularly black. This is a small cat that weighs only over three pounds. Although black-footed cats are small, they are called "the deadliest cat animal in the world". They dare to attack lambs four times larger than themselves. The black-footed cat has a very strong attack power. When hunting at night, it can kill one prey almost every 50 minutes, and eat 10 prey in one night, with a hunting success rate of 60%. 4. The Palas Cat The Palas Cat is also called a rabbit trolley. It is thick and short in shape, similar to a domestic cat, with a furry appearance, rich expression, and even a bit cute. The cute-looking Pallas cat actually has a very strange personality, a strong sense of territory, is very aggressive, and is easy to attack people or other animals, which is very cruel. Because the number of Palas cats is rare, they were listed as nationally protected animals very early and are also one of the banned cats. It is illegal to keep them. 5. Rusty leopard cat Rusty leopard cat is abbreviated as Rusty cat. It is also one of the protected wild cat animals. Since the female cat weighs only 1 kilogram, it is ranked alongside the black-footed cat. Rust tabby cats are agile and active, semi-permanent in trees. They are experts in climbing and can easily hunt on trees. They mainly feed on birds and small mammals of the Ordinary Ordinary. Nowadays, the number of embroidered cats is less than 10,000 worldwide. They are vulnerable species, so they are also protected. 6. Desert cats. Desert cats are distributed in northwest my country and other places. They are larger than domestic cats, have long tails, slightly longer limbs, and have a tuft of short hair at the ends of their ears. They are not afraid of the harsh climate and mainly prey on some small animals. Desert cats are known as "one of the most mysterious cat animals on the earth" and are also second-level protected animals. They have been banned from raising them in China. If they are raising them, they must be imprisoned! 7. Dune Cat Dune Cat is also a small cat, and the weight of an adult cat is about three kilograms. The dune cat has big ears on its small face and looks very interesting and cute. Because they live in the desert all year round, their meat mats are thick and thick with hair, which well isolates the hot sand and heat. Dune cats are protected by laws in multiple countries and have been listed as a near-hazardous species in the IUCN. 8. Asian Golden Cats Asian Golden Cats are mainly distributed in Southeast Asia and some parts of China. They are of medium size, yellow body hair and beautiful patterns. They have also been included in the World Union for Conservation of Nature. They are also a national first-class protected animal in my country. 9. Lynx Lynx belongs to carnivorous mammals of the family Cat family and the genus Lynx. It looks like a cat, but is much larger than a cat, and is a medium-sized beast.

Living in forest and shrub areas, it is more common in dense forests and mountain rocks. He likes to live alone, is good at climbing and swimming, and is strong tolerant of hunger. He can lie in a place for several days without fear of the severe cold. He feeds on rats, hares, etc., and also preys on wild boars and deer. Nests are mostly built in rock caves or tree caves. 2-4 baby per car. Widely distributed in Europe and northern Asia. It is a Romanian beast. It is also a national second-class protected animal in my country.

10. Caracal caracal is an animal of the Carnivore family. Caracas eat small mammals and birds, and occasionally attack gazelle, small antelope or young ostrich. Caracals are solitary or paired domain cats. They have strong domain properties, strong jumping ability, and do not like to scream. They occasionally make similar calls to leopards and will lie in caves during the day. The above cats have been banned for various reasons. If you really like cats, you can keep ordinary domestic cats, such as Chinese pastoral cats, tabby cats, British short cats, American short cats, ragdoll cats, etc. Most pet cats have a good temper and are very suitable for domestic maintenance. As long as you accompany them more and interact with them more, they will regard you as the closest person!
