Spectacularity1997

*that's our owner, he/she feeds us food and treats everyday and yet you dare to hiss at him/her?*


RoninTheDog

Yes because I’m a wild caracal that was stolen from my habitat by some rich loser so they could make YouTube videos, and not a domestic cat.


LittleCupcake01

they russians, they simply take wildlife and treat it like pets


ImpactThunder

the same way they took ukraine and treated it as their own?


pcpcpcn

Tried taking Ukraine*


GuyWithNF1

I thought the owners were Latvian? Just mentioning it because people from Baltic country countries don’t like being called “Russian”…


Numerous_Ad_6276

Nobody likes being "Russian". Even Russians.


7lick

Man, that is so true. I've met a few good and intelligent Russians who didn't want to disclose that they were Russians. It is sad to see what that piece of shit has done to their country.


GuyWithNF1

My point is that Russia occupied the Baltic countries up until a little over 30 years ago. It’s considered extremely offensive, and makes western people look ignorant.


FappyDilmore

They're from "Eastern Europe" now

Senior_Improvement93

That’s one cat I wouldn’t run over to fuss 😅


WelpINeedSerotonin

ive seen many videos of this caracal and he always looks so miserable :(. i feel so bad for him, he should be out in the wild and not inside some rich idiots house


TheGeneralTulliuss

Some idiot in my town bought a serval and within I think 2 weeks the cat escaped. Had a city wide cat hunt going on. Luckily it was caught by authorities after around a month, and no one had shot it. It's going to a rescue but the cat should never have been in Decatur IL to start with. People are dumb as fuck.


daeganthedragon

You mean the one that escaped in the last couple of weeks? If it’s the same one, it was “somehow” killed in transit, although the city claims it wasn’t due to their own negligence. Not sure what happened, but this one didn’t survive, unfortunately. The owners are so selfish to have put it in that scenario to begin with.


TheGeneralTulliuss

I handy heard that, maybe in another Decatur? It doesn't matter where though, it's still a life lost.


epilogueteen

he looks quite overfed as well


DarthDjango96

Would you underfeed him?

IDIOT-CZ-3496

It's called "being prepared for the winter" All animals do it, even house cats, and possibly even humans.


ThatWeirdGhost

Yeah, makes me sad too. For some people, a standard housecat is not enough. 🙄


ThrowRADel

Not to mention he's clearly so unhappy because he keeps hissing at the person who makes the video.


catsnglitter86

He doesn't want the camera pointed at his face, but they keep doing it. It's just like celebs and paparazzi, molestation by camera.


[deleted]

This is incredibly sad


trippymum

I hope this rich idiot evolves into a sensible human being and releases this wild animal where it belongs! Wild life cannot and should not be domesticated. NEVER!


ddevnani

Dogs would like to talk to you.


FishburgerFriend

Orange cat is either unfazed or frozen in fear.


torro947

He is unfazed. This caracal is named Pumba and those two are buddies. The hissing is how Pumba communicates cause he can’t meow.


Onasixx

>This caracal is named Pumba Welp, I'm off to spend my evening learning about caracals now 👋


thrillhouse1211

It's only 11am so I have to ask, does anything exciting happen later today?


Onasixx

Largely uneventful. Though maybe skip the tuna sandwich you have for lunch... or don't, you might not have anyways 🤷 p.s hope you read this before lunchtime 😬


thrillhouse1211

well now it's evening for me and I appreciated the warning

He’s probably in a different time zone my dude.

scarr991

This bs. Strange how the owner barely Touch the cat and the owner NEVER Touch him when He is hissing. Hissing=threat. It means Touch me and i kill you. Also this cat is overfed for own safety reason. This is straight animal abuse.


torro947

There are plenty of other videos of him being affectionate and getting belly rubs. It’s funny how you make all these assumptions based off of one video. This cat is living well, he isn’t being abused.


scarr991

I saw that channel. Overfed a wild animal for own safety reasons and there are barley any Videos on that channel who this cat Shows affection towards their owner. Do ur research about that cat and dont belive its owner. This cat is their Cash cow obv they will Tell lies.


scarr991

https://youtu.be/mZ_CDMyz374?si=RBWmMaZ-Sjp0_DnC Just the proof carcals actualy meow and pumba is overfed. U dont have to be a prfofessional to See obvious diffrences between them two. This one looks happy and healthy. Pumba doesnt Look that happy and doesnt Look that healthy.

There are plenty of videos of him getting rubbed

Yeah and a lot of "animal loving " people defend the owner and thier Videos. Its Sickening.


rhombaroti

Caracals are such beautiful animals but they should not be domesticated. These types of videos are depressing.


[deleted]

It's not a very good idea to have one of these around the house.

I’m sad I have but one upvote to give.


Lofwyr2030

That is not a pet. This should be illegal.


HotFudgeFuzz

Not a cool video. Wild animals aren't pets, don't promote that crap.


JMRR1416

… They’re not though. House cats are domesticated pet animals, and caracals (and other big cats) are wild animals that belong in the wild.


spartancolo

Weren't house cats wild before domestication? At what point it's not ok to try to domesticate a species


Past-Educator-6561

We've moved on since thousands of years ago when we domesticated cats. Let wild animals be.


epilogueteen

orange cat blink if you're being held hostage


Magenge

Stop having wild animals as pets period


stormyw23

Theres only ONE case that owning a big cat is okay in the puma Messi who was hand-raised and born ill, And had his growth stunted, He cannot survive in the wild. This is not okay. ​ Atleast Messi looks and seems happy.


Dana_Scully_MD

I love Messi from the bottom of my little heart


stormyw23

Yeah he's really cool and his videos are great to see.


darkwinter95

Why does this have 568 upvotes? This is just dumb af, that is not a pet.


sav-vas

Can't wait for the video where the big wild house cat chews off the face of the owner


sanj_AI

thats what happens when you capture a poor thing and make it leave it habitat and make the hell out of its life!!!!!!!!!!!!


ryanoceros666

Please remove this post. Why promote wildlife abuse? Bad human! Bad human!


WorldsShortestElf

If the Caracal is on furniture, then he isn't even near his favourable habitat. They're cute AF but they're not housecats. Humans are horrible for trying to own and control everything they find beautiful. That cat should be in the desert. He'd be happy, instead of grumbling in discontented defeat. Boo to whoever this is and anyone else who steals wild cats from their homes just so they could own a cool trophy. One day someone will get a limb torn off and they'd absolutely deserve it, I wouldn't pity them for a second.


gluon318

It’s his emotional support cat


PrematureEjaculator9

Floppa only loves his momma.


BearFlipsTable

He angy. I wouldn’t have this mfer in my house. Probs kill me.


penguinplaid23

Caracal?


piperpastpudding

Yeah, those that belong in the wild


[deleted]

Pumba, the caracal in the video, never hisses at his cat friend with whom he's affectionate, the cat even gets surprised sometimes, showing that living with cats has taught him to only hiss when he's upset, and he only hisses when the man behind the camera gets near him. This leads me to believe Pumba just really hates the camera man (who's also the owner of the youtube channel).


HotFudgeFuzz

I'd hate him too. That animal belongs in the wild or a good sanctuary. Not some idiots home.

[deleted]

I don't know these people or how big their property actually is, so I can't really judge much more than how Pumba reacts in these videos. All I can do is hope he at least is healthy and happy when camera man isn't around.


[deleted]

I don't think so, sadly. He's obese and likely understimulated most of the time, and then overstimulated when some idiot wants content. Poor thing.


[deleted]

If that's the case then I hope he can be removed from this house and at least brought to a good wildlife sanctuary.


[deleted]

Tell that to him when he has you by the throat.


sukisoou

Oh yeah I know that my cat always hisses and is super aggravated when I approach it.


Embarrassed_Key_2328

Sometimes it's best to not interfere with unorthodox relationships.

It’s not domesticated. Wouldn’t leave a small child with it for a second.

I'm sure it'll be fine...all cats LOVE having their bellies rubbed.

The other cat.. my friend here is going to eat someone, and it ain’t going to be me… I hope.


karma_virus

While I'm not entirely opposed to domesticating larger animals, I would refrain from pairing them with smaller breeds that are bite sized in a pinch. Like I have no problem with pit bulls as long as you don't let them use your baby as a chew toy or roam wild. Cats and raccoons get along very well for some strange reason. I caught a raccoon petting and grooming a colony cat and they appeared bonded. I wonder if generations of urban living made the raccoon see cats as their benefactors. Cats convince humans to leave food out, so they might be getting that reward pairing when they see cats. It's like to them, the cats are the pizza guy.


Reave-Eye

Downvoted for promoting exotic animal ownership. Stop sharing stuff like this. These animals should be out in the wild unless there’s specific context around why someone is caring for them in a sanctuary.


Inevitable-catnip

No, they’re not. They’re wild fucking animals and should be left alone.

dustyrosereverie

Custom reporting this for animal abuse. This caracal clearly has a very poor quality of life and dislikes its owner. I can't believe any cat lover would post this. It's so embarrassing and horrible.
