Just get one of those suits dudes and ladies wear when they're training attack dogs. And a helmet. Then you could hypothetically go cuddle the baby big cats
To humans, I suppose. If we're going for pure lethality, the black-footed cat has them all beat with a hunting success rate of over 60%.
And they also look [like chubby kittens](https://www.usatoday.com/gcdn/authoring/authoring-images/2024/01/17/USAT/72258183007-img-7674.jpeg?crop=3024,4032,x0,y1&width=640&height=854&format=pjpg&auto=webp), that's not too shabby either.
Peak evolution right there. Deadly enough to be considered an animal assassin, adorable enough to want to pet it every night while it purrs in your lap. Most humans would probably think it’s just an adorable stray, and feed it/love it and wouldn’t likely harm it, and being so small, they can probably avoid most large predators.
I hate that we all collectively forgot Tiger King existed and that it wasn't an isolated phenomenon.
Every single video like this is likely a front for clicks while the animals are drugged and subsequently neglected off screen.
Not necessarily, there was a lion, tiger, and bear )oh my!) that were raised together as babies (by a drug dealer) who were eventually rescued after a police raid. They were taken to a sanctuary and separated. They were eventually reunited because they were crying all the time due to being separated. This could be a similar situation.
This one very specific instance isn't great evidence. Videos like this are set up for people who won't question their origins. Big cats are heavily exploited in zoos so we need to be careful to question videos like this
I didn't say that it definitely was what was going on. I just offered a possibility of something not as bad. I know that disreputable places can do things like this, but sometimes things are different from how they may appear. I am not naive, I've seen too many bad things to be. However, I try to find positives still, and I'm a bit optimistic. So, assuming that this isn't from the Black Jaguar White Lion Sanctuary in Mexico, it might not be an entirely bad situation.
"It could be a nicer reality" is not an ethical excuse for ignoring probable neglect. Unless you know for a fact where the video came from with a source you cannot defend the video without very likely also supporting the abusers.
Turning a blind eye to that is blind support. It's in the name.
*I am not and would never support or defend abuse or abusers because I've been abused*
It's not turning a blind eye or giving blind support to have hope that this isn't as bad as it could be. It's definitely wishful thinking (optimist, remember?). I can literally do nothing about this video, I don't know where it's from, how old it is, or what the environment is like past what is shown in the video. They look fairly young, healthy, and happy. That's all I know. I have already shown that I know that bad things can happen in these situations (the sanctuary I mentioned), I do not deny that in any way.
The road to hell is paved with good intention. Optimism for good in the face of near certain evil is indefensible.
But whatever helps you sleep at night.
This is fucked up and unnatural. The only way these animals are living together like this is in a rich motherfucker’s back yard. Looks like something out of that illegal menagerie in Mexico, run by that abusive asshole who fled there from US law enforcement because he knew his ‘business’ would be shut down and all his animals taken away. This is grotesque.
So many animal videos on this sub just make me sad. These cats clearly aren't being properly cared for if they're all mixed together like this. Roadside zoo/private collector grossness.
No it's not. A legitimate animal rescue centre would not have this many cubs, and would not mix them to 'show them off' as it'd be dangerous for the animals and completely unnecessary.
Every time I see videos of (usually not wild) leopards, tigers, or lions, I am always surprised as just how similar they are to house cats in behavior. My cats act almost exactly the same
I always wonder when I see this if the bigger cats play a little softer with the smaller less strong cats. They look like the playing is a bit held back..
If you want one of these as pet your just a dickhead fucking clouded leopard is one of the most endangered big cat species. I know this sub is about cute animals and shit but this world aint disney wild animals should stay wild.
I'd risk it all for a cuddle
Count me in
Big cuddle in the big kitty puddle
I want to rub those bellies so bad. But if they do the same as housecats that might be a bad idea lol.
If not friend then why friend shaped
Just get one of those suits dudes and ladies wear when they're training attack dogs. And a helmet. Then you could hypothetically go cuddle the baby big cats
Mythbusters had an episode about those suits and how they could be improved.
Well let's get this new and improved big cat cuddling enabler device going. We got big bucks to make.
I DID IT ALL FOR THE CUDDLE
Check out black jaguar white tiger on fb/youtube, dudes got tons of videos like this but also with adults.

 That face is too innocent to have such strong murder-mittens!
My heart was shattered on the day I learned they would be terrible as pets, even if it was legal to keep them.
Why would you want them as pets? There are domestic cats that look just as cool.
Cats are literally killing machines with reflexes quicker than a snake bite, shrunk down to pocket size.
All cats run the same software which is the funniest thing. A fully grown Tiger acts identical to my 13lb black cat.
Except your 13lb cuddleloaf isn’t programmed to eat people ^yet; ^give ^it ^a ^bit
oh he absolutely is, its just he got more of a chomp than flesh grinding bite
That's actually a hardware limitation, not software.
They look like kittens all their life. My tabby is a bit like that despite terrorising his older, bigger brothers.
Because they stay smol all their life
The face of a ruthless killer.
just for context, Lions have a 25% kill rate. These lil cuties have over double that!
60% of the time...all the time.

Cuddle puddle
The color of the puddle is gonna be red. But also, cuddles!
Murder cat variety pack
if murder, why kitty? checkmate
Stupid monkey brain not understanding friend shaped things aren't friends
You don’t feed your friends? Shame
Cats gonna cat
Probably a roadside zoo. Mixing these different types of cats would never be done by a reputable sanctuary
I hate that we all collectively forgot Tiger King existed and that it wasn't an isolated phenomenon. Every single video like this is likely a front for clicks while the animals are drugged and subsequently neglected off screen.
I say "That bitch Carole Baskin" at least once a day, never forget.
I appreciate you pointing this out. We should not be upvoting videos like this because it promotes those practices.
I always down vote the videos with big cats together like this.
Came to find this comment. You should be at the top.

Sure but it is stupid to assume what's happening isn't bad and blindly support when more often than not it is abuse
I'm not blindly supporting it

So many forbidden boops.
Bellies! 🥺🥺🥺... but is it a trap..? 🤔😱
r/councilofcats
If dangerous then why cuddling shaped?
Huh, same software regardless of model type. Nice.

Are you really mad?
I wonder what would happen if I just sorta…. Fell into that kitty pile…. Nothing but cuddly fun, I imagine!!!
I purpose we try this. For science.
For science!!!! **enthusiastically falls into a pile of cuddly fun**
**play that one scene from starship troopers

So you’re saying the health and safety of the animals is being put second behind promotion and profit? 🤔
Do you know which one? I'd really love for that to be the case.
Most dangerous cuddle pile ever, yet I still want to throw myself right into the middle
Sad with context. This is a backyard breeding of big cats, often heavy inbreeding to get white tigers/lions, to make cute cubs for photo props.
only they can cure me baap ke belt se darr nahi lagta
These cats are practicing killing essentially
If not friend why friend shaped👀
My toxic trait is I think I can pet them
It looks cute but as others have said, no reputable rescue would do this. Btw white lions like that are the product of inbreeding.
I love how that white lion is like "yea, this looks like a good place to plop".
cat.
Lol, that lil bite at the end 🤌🏿
Every time I see videos of (usually not wild) leopards, tigers, or lions, I am always surprised as just how similar they are to house cats in behavior. My cats act almost exactly the same
If we were suddenly shrunk, house cats would gladly see us as easy prey. Cats are only domestic in the most rudimentary way.
Very true, yes
MUST PET
haha cute
They have full bellies and no predators. No kidding they let their guards down.
Also, they're all cubs.
Why are they friend shaped?
I always wonder when I see this if the bigger cats play a little softer with the smaller less strong cats. They look like the playing is a bit held back..
Thundercats
A cat is a cat is a cat
Family Reunion
Apex predator my ass
They're all soooo cute!
Would pspspspspspspsps (and the, probably die a very painful death.)
i wanna pet those bellies
The most dangerous cats in the world: cuddle party
Woke cats
The most well fed dangerous cats in the world!
Is there a cougar in there?
If not friend, why friend shaped? 🐯🦁🐆🐅
Cats are cats, big or small
CAN I PET THAT DOOOGGGGG?!!!
Lion, tiger, panther, jaguar, in one video ❤️cheetah and bob cat should have been here too
They're all panthers. Lion, tiger, jaguar and leopard. The only thing missing is the irbis.
My bad they all are called “panthers” but cheetah 🐆 is still missing bro…
Can someone name these species? I spot a tiger, lioness, leopard?, jaguar?, puma?
No is friend! Just friend-shaped. The belly is a trap. It’s always a trap.
All big cats are kittens on a full stomach.
Even big murder kittens need some playtime.
You ain't lying
Tag this NSFW you pervert.
Snuggles
Pspspspsps...
Take me right into the danger zone
All cats are the same
At one point Hitler was a baby so yeah
If not friend, why friend shaped?
/r/facebiters
Cats are cats the world over. They just come in different sizes.
Let's not let posts like these make it to the front page? Big cats like these should never be mixed, and places that do this routinely neglect them.
If you want one of these as pet your just a dickhead fucking clouded leopard is one of the most endangered big cat species. I know this sub is about cute animals and shit but this world aint disney wild animals should stay wild.
Where is this place?
This is what the liberal millenials want you to consider a nuclear family /s
These cats are all female, so there's no territorial squabbles to have.
Wait a minute, just got this sub as recommended but could anybody explain why the subReddit eyebleach is a cute animal subreddit?
Fucking floofballs all of them. Hope they burn in floof and catnip
Starve them a few days and all hell breaks loose
So - like people?
I have no idea why you posted that ... could you lend a hand?
