The Black Footed Cat is probably the smallest wild cat on the planet, weighing in at just 3.6 pounds. Its feet are not black because @#$& you logic, go away. It remains adorable and kitten-like its entire life.
The Black Footed Cat is also notable for being the
deadliest hunter among all cats and one of the most lethal predators
anywhere. They have at least three specific hunting modes they rotate through for different prey animals and have a 60% success rate: if a Black Footed Cat decides something's a snack, more than half the time it's winding up in their mouth. A single cat can cover 20 miles in one night's worth of hunting. Adding to its ultra-lethal tactics are its jumping abilities, despite being a few inches high it has no problem jumping four and a half feet into the air to snag a passing bird. A Black Footed Cat will eat as many as 14 prey animals a night and will happily take on prey larger than itself. Weather also makes no difference, rain snow, temperatures from 14 to 95 degrees, Black Footed Cat goes and hunts in all of them. Oddly enough they are terrible climbers and won't take to trees readily so their tactics revolve around eating things that are either on the ground or low enough for them to jump at.
Black Footed Cats are considered threatened. The main threats to them are indiscriminate pest control that wipes out the supply of rodents and small birds since these cats eat like a shounen protagonist, without a very solid prey base they can easily run out of food and suffers starvation. However, they have been successfully bred in captivity several times and while their status as wild cats is threatened, their future is not nearly as bleak as many other animals.
