Tiny little wildcat kitten from the Scottish Highlands
Not my photo, it's from this STV article about the successes of some conservation efforts. The article has more pics and also a short video!

Extremely boopable nose. Mama cat would rightfully shred my face off tho.
Mama cat can get a boop too, a few flesh wounds don't have to stop you!

Tell my family I died happy
worth, 10/10 would die to boop
that wee face
I can't explain why but this cat does look like it could start talking with a Scottish accent and it wouldn't look out if place
Came to say, "How does this kitten look Scottish?"
But then you already basically said it, and yet I still made this awkward meta reply, and now the comment is catching up with itself and I don't know what to say next
"Halp! There is a bush here, but I am very smol."
Oh my goooodnessss! <3 How precious!
Thank you so much for sharing this photo and the article with it about their great conservation efforts and their successes! :)
I guess there has to be a conservation effort because people keep stealing them!
Anybody stealing one would be disappointed, as, like all wildcats other than F. sylvestris (the nearest wild relative of the domestic cat), they’d be too paranoid and aggressive to be domesticable.
I don't know, my cat's extremely paranoid and anxious, we just deal with it!
You can tell by their accents ❤️😍❤️

Great now I want a cat that says Meoch

Miamha in Scottish Gaelic! Although I think the Irish míáú is much more fun with the repeated fadas
Oh my oh my oh my
