Geoffroy’s cat

Leopardus geoffroyi

Another of South America’s small felines, found on the southern tip of the subcontinent. Found at high altitudes in the Andes Cordillera, this little feline is perfectly resistant to the cold. It closely resembles its cousin, the southern oncilla, which it sometimes encounters to the north of its range. Geoffroy’s cat has been the subject of a European breeding program since 1996.
