The Asian golden cat is a medium-sized wild cat, typically weighing about 25 – 35 lbs. Its average length is about 4 feet including its tail. The Asian golden cat ranges from the lowlands of Southeast Asia up into the Himalayas, sometimes up to 3,000 metres. Its range includes parts of Bangladesh, Cambodia, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Myanmar, Nepal, Thailand, and Viet Nam.

The beautiful coat of the Asian golden cat ranges from a dark orangey red to a golden brown, and is thick and coarse. Depending on the geographical location, Asian golden cats may have light spots on the underside; in China, they have darker rosettes all over the coat, similar to those of the leopard cat.

Asian golden cats are mainly nocturnal although sometimes they appear during the day as well. They are opportunistic predators, eating ground birds, rodents, reptiles, and other small-to-medium prey.

The Asian golden cat is listed by the International Union for Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources (IUCN) as Near Threatened. Threats to the Asian golden cat include habitat loss due to deforestation, indiscriminate snaring, and illegal trade in its pelt and bones. In Southeast Asia, it is also threatened by falling numbers of prey animals

This is officially the most unusual cat I have ever seen in my whole life! First of all, his size. I am not sure, is it 10 kilos or more, but I can barely lift him. When he sleeps on the microwave, his belly hangs down. He certainly has to curl up a bit to fit there. Secondly, his color. Well, white cats are not so rare, but look at his eyes! And one more thing – I have never seen a cat who SNORES so loud when he sleeps! Not purrs, I know what that’s like, but really SNORES! 😀
