That has made my day! I have 2 maine coons, but have always thought a lynx would make a great companion. I know its a pipe dream in this country, but a figured they are about the size of a medium sized dog so what could go wrong ;-)

Smaller than I thought it would be, I'd be confiscating the roll of kitchen paper though
Lily our MC is very keen on biting noisy packaging and it really winds me up for some reason

Savannah cats can grow really big and they are legal to have as pets in UK!

They just cost a fortune!

Hmm. Our Maine Coon, who is 2 and so far from fully grown, didn't want to come in from the garden the other day. *Really* didn't. The resulting semi feral whirlwind of teeth claws and hissing made me think he'll be a real handful in a couple of years. I'd want a top hat, a chair and a whip to deal with that thing when it was pissed off.

If you read the comments/description, its already dead. I'm sure if he was really pissing it off, it would do something... He is just playing with it.

That's what I think. I never pick my cat up - if he wants to be picked up, he'll jump into my arms.

I also think that keeping a wild animal in an apartment isn't really on, either. Supposedly he 'rescued it from a fur farm'.

Yeah, right. rolleyes

Watching that video back, I also think that lynx has been de-clawed.

Notice how it rips the kitchen rolls apart with its teeth, rather than its claws.

Yes, good spot. That makes a lot of sense. And really isn't on, IMO.
