This is the original "house cat" from way back in Egyptian times. Looks just like a normal house cat except for the stripy legs. Beaut animals. Same size to as a large cat, bigger than Burmese.

Thanks Callie. I looked them up on wiki which states their skeletons have been found in Neolithic graves in Cyprus. The graves are estimated to be 9500 years old. Wiki also states their domestication of about 10,000 years. I have 2 Maine Coons. Your wild cat seems to be about the size of Maine Coons.
