Lynxes are large solitary cats that are almost always found in the wild. They look like many other large cats but have defining characteristics like short tails and tufted ears.
Lynxes can come in many colors like brown, beige, gold, and gray. All lynxes have white hair on their chests, stomachs, and legs. The color can also depend on which region the lynx is from.
When domesticated lynxes are young like those shown in this video, they are essentially kittens like those kept as pets. They drink milk, play with their siblings, and pretend to stalk each other.
Like other domesticated animals, lynxes like to split their time between inside and outside. Having a designated area for the cats to play and climb helps them burn off energy and interact with each other.
Enrichment is very important for lynxes that do not live in the wild to keep the cats happy. Having all kinds of toys and different foods will keep them engaged and social.
Lynxes are nocturnal and will prefer to play and hunt at night. Their large reflective eyes help them see in poor lighting so they can stalk their prey without being seen.
Despite how cute they are, lynxes can be very dangerous pets and are illegal to own in many countries. They are wild animals that will act accordingly, so it is best to enjoy them on videos when possible.
