Black-Footed Cat

Black-Footed Cats are animals that appear in The Lion King fanfictions.
== Information ==
The black-footed cat is the smallest cat species in Africa, characterized by tawny fur covered entirely in black spots. Its head is darker than the rest of the body, but is paler around the eyes. Some parts of the body bear black stripes, and its tail is spotted. Despite their name, the feet of black-footed cats are not fully black, with the color only being present on the underpart; the color can also be dark brown. It can have a white, tawny-tinted belly that blends in with the fur, and throat rings forming rufous-colored semi-circles. Individuals vary in color depending on region. It has short legs and a long tail.
Endemic to Southern Africa, the black-footed cat ranges from South Africa to Botswana, though sightings have been recorded in Namibia, Angola, and Zimbabwe. It is not expected to be found in Lesotho and Eswatini. The species inhabits savanna and shrubland areas and lives a nocturnal life, spending most of its day in hiding. When the sun sets, the black-footed cat hunts and is widely regarded as one of the most successful predators in Africa, using ambushes and quick hunts to successfully kill prey, such as mice, birds, and hares. It is not, however, a good climber. Many black-footed cats wander and mark their territory by spraying, using a variety of calls in order to communicate with one another. Mothers give birth to one or two kittens, sometimes even four.
