Like the Scots, this cat cannot be domesticated and will fight to the death to remain free. I just received this post from the local Highland group that I joined when we returned from living in Scotland last year.
http://wildcats.suite101.com/article.cfm/the_endangered_scottish_wild_cat contains interesting information about this endangered animal. It came to me courtesy of scottishcouncil@yahoogroups.com which is a publication of http://groups.yahoo.com/group/scottishcouncil/
My interest in this subject comes from years of volunteering at monthly clinics of San Diego’s Feral Cat Coalition, which also has a very interesting website with complete instructions for spay/neuter clinics for feral cat colony maintenance at the Feral Cat Coalition.
