Have you ever seen a Scottish Wildcat? They are impressive cats. They are found in the forests of Western, Central and Eastern Europe, Scotland and Turkey. They are sometimes mistaken for house cats although they are larger than house cats, and have thick fur. They also move more during the day where domestic cats are nocturnal. Their numbers are decreasing. Some are shot as feral cats, which is reducing their numbers. Also, some interbreed with feral domestic cats which is a threat to the wild population.
