3. Never heard of this cat before so I looked it up

This beauty is very elusive from Central Asia and has the most fur of any cat species and they used it as a decoy to make them look bigger than they actually are. Love learning new things here

19. Not suited for captivity.

Can Pallas cats survive in captivity?

There are approximately 50 Pallas' Cats in U.S. Zoos and wild populations are decreasing. Pallas' Cats are not easy to breed in captivity and keeping Pallas' Cats healthy in captivity is difficult. Survival rates are low due to infections, which are attributed to an under-developed immune system.
