I love California Spangled Cats

The California Spangled Cat is a breed of cat. They were bred to resemble spotted wildcats, like the ocelot and leopard. They are a rare breed, and usually expensive, priced between $800 to $2,500. They were originally bred in the 1980s.

Inspired by the poaching death of a leopard, the anthropologist Louis Leakey, motivated Californian scriptwriter Paul Casey to breed a domestic cat resembling a small leopard, and that this would emphasize how important it is to preserve the leopard.

California Spangled Cats are a crossbreed of many strains of cat. Despite their wild appearance, they are completely domestic.

Sweet-natured, intelligent, and energetic, Spangles enjoy companionship but are not demanding of their owners' attention

The breed originator's reasons for creating the breed (similar to the generally accepted Bengal reasoning) were considered bold and important at the time of the foundation of the breed. There was an unexpected bad spin put on his cats when Neiman-Marcus approached him about putting his cats in their catalog for Christmas in 1986. He saw this as an opportunity to show the world (and especially those who could afford fur clothing) that spotted fur belonged on your lap, not on your back. He was, and is, extremely anti-fur, and very environmentally conscious. The catalog gave birth to an initial wave of interest, and unfortunately a far-reaching all-encompassing backlash from the cat world. The breeding program was all but abandoned until very recently when new interest was sparked in this dying breed, this unicorn of the cat world.

California Spangled Cats were developed in the 1980s by a California breeder who was determined to create a domestic breed to mimic endangered spotted wildcats. A complex breeding program including an Abyssinian-domestic shorthair cross, a British Shorthair, an American Shorthair, a feral cat from Cairo, a spotted Manx, and a Siamese produced the anticipated results after eleven generations.

Gather is a great forum to meet people, read entertaining and informative articles and earn money and gift cards while doing it. On average, I earn approximately $50 a month there just for commenting on articles and submitting a few of my own. The earning potential is definitely higher than that if you want to put more than a couple hours a week into it. Check it out.



MyLot is also a decent moneymaker. It doesn't pay as much for your time as Gather but it is still a worthy time investment. Thus far, I've been able to make the minimum payout every month without any referrals and commenting on posts just a few times a week.
