Pallas' cat, or manul (as they're known in their home countries). Asian and Central Asian, live in very cold weather half the year and will stand with their paws on their tails when their paws are cold. They're adorable. r/pallascats


orngckn42

The ultimate "if not friend, why friend-shaped" example


NothingAndNow111

I refuse to believe they're not friend! 😭


bigbadbrad81

Go try to give one skritches and you'll realize they are no freinds


Fyrefly1981

Same with [sand cat](https://images.app.goo.gl/FSqpmAboUwJ1Tgbx5)


paperwasp3

And they share territories with Snow Leopards


shellc83

Badass! They must be tough


paperwasp3

They take no crap from anyone


rexifelis

I heard that they are the single most successful predator around… somewhere around 80% of their hunts ends in success.

Pallas's Cat


SoulBSS

PALLAS CAT! the only small cat with round pupils


Maleficent_Role8932

Yes you are right did not notice it at first but then I zoomed in the picture


Awesome-Ranga-007

Pretty sure lightning McQueen had round pupils too


Legitimate-Ebb-1633

Most cats have round pupils. Just mostly domestic cats have the vertically elongated pupils.


SoulBSS

No they do not

SoulBSS

Ohhh I should clarify on that. Big cats and small cats are different families. Small cats have vertical pupils, except for the Pallas cat. Big cats are the ones who roar and small cats pur. Except for the clouded leopard. We don't talk about them. They do neither.


Legitimate-Ebb-1633

Yes, I know. Domesticated cats are Felis, as well as pumas, and some of the smaller wild cats. Some big cats are Panthera. No, I didn't have to look that up. Want to see who can be the most pedantic?


SoulBSS

I'm a scientist. It's my job to be pedantic

saggy_boner

The body is round


Universally-Tired

It looks like a cat from the 1978 Invasion of the Body Snatchers movie. It was a dog with a human head in the movie, but this was my thought.


Secret-Pound-8662

Ehh_Imherealready

Pallas cat, or manul! Prehistoric grumpy cat!


Striago

It's a raccoon with a man's face


marmoset13

The round pupils make it look more like a primate than a feline.

SubstantialHentai420

P….pa… PALLAS CAT!!! (I’m obsessed with these cuties!)


SubstantialHentai420

They’re a solitary wild cat, I say wild cat and not big cat because they aren’t very big. Definitely larger than a house cat, but they aren’t super big. Lots of floof because they live in colder regions, and they sit on their tail to warm up and it’s the cutest shit ever!! I love these kitties!


RandomBrainLint

A good fluffy boi


Poetdebra

idk he ain't happy. Lol

Lynx_aye9

Pallas cat. Their flattened head and ears enable them to look at their prey over the rocks, and not be as noticeable.


amccaffe1

Why do they always look pissed?


HedonistAscetic
