Description

Another job well done if I do say so myself n .n

The spots gave me a hard time, but I like how it came out in the end.

KIKI'S ANIMAL FACTS:
Geoffroy's Cat is probably the most common wild cat in South America. It is the size of an average domestic cat, and has black spots, but the color of the rest of the fur varies by region, with a brownish yello coat in northern regions, and a more grey coat in the south. And melanist coats (black fur) are equally common in the wild and in captivity. It's primary diet are rodents, lizards and insects, and occasionally frogs and fish, and has no real predators, other than humans, who threaten their population by hunting them for their pelts, though the population is still somewhat strong. Despite it's relative size with domestic cats, breeding between the two has very little success. They mostly live in 'scrubby forest' (low density of trees, with plenty of under brush like bushes).
