    F. Silvestris, the European Wildcat, is generally considered a separate lineage from domesticated cats, though somewhat capable of crossbreeding, and because of human introduction of domestic cats the Scottish Wildcat in particular is functionally extinct in the wild. Just one of many great examples of the destructive nature of this pet and human negligence.

      We should consider the centuries of persecution by humans and the severe habit loss.

        "That didn't happen.
        And if it did, it wasn't that bad.
        And if it was, then it's not a big deal.
        And if it is, then it's not my fault.
        And if it was, I didn't mean it.
        And if I did... You deserved it."
