[QUOTE="Dry Rot, post: 7481429, member: 4505"] Obviously not and the one that came to me was perfectly handlable. This may depend on the circumstances. Some species imprinted early and at the correct stage in life will retain their tameness. Many years ago now, an escped puma was recaptured outside Inverness although no one had reported losing one. The police and SSPCA reckoned it must have been a very recent capture as it was rubbing up against the sides of the cage like a domestic cat when anyone came near it. Billy Smart's Circus was in town and the great man himself visited the animal. He said it could have been free for some time because cats, if imprinted when young, retain their tameness. Perhaps someone with experience of cats could comment. I know nothing about them! :confused: [/QUOTE]
