    Not a cat. Luke is a European Wildcat ( sort of like Bob Cat.) He was found as a wild kitten with big azure blue eyes in the Ardenne Forest by a friend of Miss Seagoon. He couldn’t purr or meow like normal cats , when grown was huge, had a stubby tail and big paws. He was so timid he would lash out . Just had to leave him be and he was fine. I tried to bring him to the zoo in Antwerp but they said I had to legally keep him .

    He was a nice boy who liked to chase butterflies and sit near to me. I never once patted him tho I really really wanted to. He went to live with friends in Brussels when we moved to America, he would never have passed quarantine.

      If i didn’t know what sort it was I would’ve tried to pat the risky kitty and probably lose a limb in the process.

        I tried to pat him when he was a kitten, he bit me to the bone

        Miss Seagoon picked him up once , he bit her so bad she needed antibiotics and had lumps in her hand for a year

      Luke is beautiful. Boyo had a Serval (S2? I think) before they became illegal. The wilder cats are gorgeous but not so easy to live with.

          I loved meeting the ones at Werribee, living with is rather boggling
