A Kitten Becomes A Real Adult And Starts To Live Free Of His Mother When He Is One Year Old.
Males are larger than females. Bold, red streaks runs across each cheek from the corner of both eyes. Mother sand cats normally have three kittens when giving birth.
The Ears Are Set Low And Measure 2 To 2.8 Inches, Giving A Flat Appearance.
The cat’s large ears help to provide it with excellent hearing. Legs are covered with black stripes. If they have ample water, cats can tolerate temperatures up to 133 °f.
The Sand Cat Is A Relatively Small Animal That Can Reach 15 To 20 Inches In Length Including Head And Body.
The home range of a single male sand cat can be over 35 km2 (the home range of females tends to be smaller). The sand cat ( felis margarita ), also known as the sand dune cat, is a small wild cat that inhabits sandy and stony deserts far from water sources. They are pregnant for 63 days.
Ears Are Black On The Tops.
The sand cat sometimes looks bigger than usual due to the very thick fur that it develops in areas with cold nights. The legs are short, but the tail is relatively long measuring between 9 and 12 inches. It also makes walking on sand easier.
Their Claws Are Generally Blunt As They Dig A Lot And Don’t Have Many Places To Sharpen Them In The Wild.
Sand cats hate living in zoos. In wild these cats are. A cat has no collarbone, so it can fit through any opening the size of its head.
