The Pallas's cat (Otocolobus manul), also called manul, is a small wild cat with a broad but fragmented distribution in the grasslands and montane steppes of Central Asia. It is negatively affected by habitat degradation, prey base decline, and hunting, and has therefore been classified as Near Threatened by IUCN since 2002. It shares one of the common features of the Ocelot, namely being pretty god-damn cool.

I think this is a beginning of a beautiful friendship.
