I’ve heard that Australian feral cats can grow quite large. Do you think it’s possible to breed them to reach the size of a tiger—or even larger, like a prehistoric saber-toothed tiger? 🐅

Breeding feral cats to grow to the size of a tiger or a prehistoric saber-toothed tiger isn’t feasible for several reasons. Firstly, domestic cats and feral cats are genetically far removed from big cats like tigers; they belong to a different lineage. While some feral cats can be larger than domestic cats, their size is still limited by their genetics.
Moreover, breeding for size can lead to a variety of health issues, including problems with mobility, longevity, and overall wellbeing. Tigers and saber-toothed cats have specific adaptations that allow them to thrive in their environments, which domestic cats simply don’t have.
Instead of trying to breed feral cats to extreme sizes, it might be more beneficial to focus on their conservation and management in a way that respects their role in the ecosystem. If you’re interested in large cats, organizations that focus on the protection and study of big cats might be worth looking into!
