Amur Leopard Cat

The sources I have seen refer to it as Amur or far eastern forest cat, also elevate it to full species status Prionailurus euptilura
 
These are the only individuals of their species on show in the UK to my knowledge. Either they came from Banham or the Cat Survival Trust. I believe they are quite old now.

i recently saw some for sale privately so they may pop up in a few more zoos in the uk over time, i hope so as they are beautiful cats and one of my favorite small cats.
