By the way Floppa hisses, you'd swear that hiss is the very last sound you heard before your death. But you can tell she's happy by the kneading of her paws. Bliss for her. From what I understand is that these cats don't meow, but communicate with hisses.
They can kind of meow. I actually found this video while searching up caracal meows. But their vocal cords aren’t well suited for it, so hissing is usually easier. When they do meow, it sounds like an old sci-fi laser.
No matter how long this cat has been around people, he is not a domesticated cat like our house cats. Muting the instincts of prey response takes generations. The people around this cat know how to act so that this cat's prey instincts do not automatically activate. No matter how long this cat has been around people, the cat has wild instincts still ready to respond.
That is completely incorrect. Aside from the fact that Gosha comes from generations of caracals that have been raised around people, he is not going to just suddenly turn on his owner's because of his so-called "instinct'. In case you haven't noticed btw, domestic house cats have a strong instinct to kill and hunt despite being raised around people for generations too. The only thing I'd say you would need to be careful of is because of their sheer size they could hurt you by accident
@@obamacare9681 go view The Lion Whisperer. I value his judgement over yours. He has raised lions from little cubs with bottle feeds, the real deal, and yet he is the first to tell you that he must be at the top of his game every time he takes lions out for walks. He specifically states that he must avoid certain movements to NOT trigger a lion's built in prey instincts. The reason why a house cat doesn't do that to humans is from nearly 8000 years of domestication. You would not last 5 minutes in the presence of these Caracals.
@@waynekaminski5438This may come as a surprise to you but lions and caracals are actually two different animals. Caracals are by definition a small cat and are owned by hundreds of people without any incidents of goring. The majority of these pets have been around people for generations. Lions are a big cat that haven't ever been selectively bred in catteries with the purpose of being pets. As I have already said the instincts between different types of cat are all very similar and anyone who knows anything at all about caracals will know that they won't just magically turn on the owners who they know and trust because of "instinct"
I will say this in your favour though. Caracals directly out of the wild would not make a good housepet at all and I personally don't think that they should be encouraged to own as a pet because they are a big commitment and have idiosyncrasies that need to be taken into account that set them apart from normal house cats
@notfiveo I son't so. They are being donesticated like snall cats. Tgey enjoy the company of adults and as ling they are feed and pretend to hunt once in a while, they enjoy their life

I’m flummoxed! I’ve only seen Furious Floppa! I had no idea all you need is a blanket and his favorite woman and you get a huge cuddle puddle. Freakn Aww!
They do that when they are little when they are drinking milk from the mother but as they grow up they still do that even tho they dont need to drink milk anymore, and they only do that to those who they think is they's parent
I love your videos. We have a new kitten, and I am realizing how much she has in common with Caracals. Caracals seem to hiss more liberally than house cats. This tells me that their hissing isn't an "eff you", but an "Oh come on, leave me alone". Our new kitten hisses and spits, but will cuddle with me minutes later.
I used to have a family of Lynx... I wore out 2-3 pair of heavy leather work gloves every year, but I still have all my fingers! Biting and scratching are simply in any can's nature, so you have to deal with it. I will say that, when I had the Lynx, I did not have very much upholstered furniture. I had a lot of teak pieces, and the cats did not like the smell of the teak oil (thank god). They make great pets, but they're kinda hard to train.
those people are literally walking a tightrope, even those that big kitty is comfortable around them. it's wild instinct can light up at any moment hence the gentle bite. she just knew how to defuse it's wild behavior. cute but deadly
The hiss makes it more special. Especially when they submit and love on you right after. To win the heart and trust of an animal this strong and magnificent is magical!
this big cat will be quite sweet to its owners. but when i see them hissing and he shows his teeth. I still have my doubts. how long this goes well. he will always be a predator
This lady totally gets it. She has a perfect reaction to the bite instinct. If this were Karate she would be a grand master! And that cat is beautiful.
That huge cat totally copped a feel throughout this, adorbs. I love your vids, I have mother and son tuxedo cats, they're my good spastic animal friends.
I've been watching for a while. to this kind of predators as pets. The puma and the panther. But these are really like house cats. the puma meowed like a kitten cat. and the panther. is also very Relax. But I think Floppa will bite one day. I find him dangerous. what you say he gives a signal before he is going to attack. this goes wrong for once. what do you think?
@@johncarter6238 Caracals arent known to attack humans. Honestly out of most wild felines this is one of the best to own if ya had to pick one for safety reasons. Only time Floppa may attack is in old age.
@BlazedBob Yes, you will be right no doubt. but if you see the videos with Floppa. see him hissing a lot and showing his teeth. cats only do that when they feel threatened, and as a warning. I don't know about Floppa, I don't trust him, but that's my opinion
Not going to lie, I will be on edge around this big beauty. This is a lovely animal but that hissing will make me nervous all day. This is not a pet for us normies, but it is admirable that someone can look after them that understand them. The worst creature in my house is Mikey. I large huntsman spider. I can hear him scurry around boxes at night. He keeps the spiders out of my house, but it took me months to get used to him. Haven't told my family about him yet.
Hisses like a rocket, growls like a V12 engine. What an absolutely insanely beautiful animal. Floppa sure loves you. Those eyes say it all.
Even purrs like a V1 rocket
If they loved this animal they wouldn't be keeping it in captivity or supporting breeders.
i guess you bonobo dont know how a V12 sounds like, definitely not like this
@@TheChupapiPapi Guess you don't know what a joke is.
Yes
Hissess like a demon. Cuddles like a kitten ~ Caracal
Is it just me or he looks a bit.... Overweight?
@@okamijubei he is definitely a little fat😂
In one of these vids he ate a whole chicken carcass so like yeah the owners over fed him

Wow. I thought they didn't purr. Delightful to see I'm wrong. Big Floppa is very happy thinking of Elena as his mom.
You're onto something, tho'. The bigger the cat, the less they can purr or meow. So lions, tigers, leopards, etc., don't purr. They will huff or roar.
Thanks, Gian, for that information.
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍👍👍
He is majestic in his beauty. But yes, he is also an innate wild creature.
They only can't meow, instead, they hiss
Momma flipped floppa on its side & nursed the big baby. 🤣 Way to go Momma! Baby was happy 💯💞🥰🦁
So I was right. I thought that SHE was breastfeeding that cat!!

The purring and the hissing ... never expected the purr after that hiss. lol
These animals hiss to communicate instead of meowing AFAIK.
I think you need to look on their ear position to determine if they are angry.

You may have potentially only seen Pumba. This is Gosha, he loafs and purrs all the time
Beautiful animal! Love how Big Floppa hisses. So cute.
Love this baby ❤ glad you guys handle Floppa carefully though, you can tell you know what you're doing ❤
I wish my cat would have at least 1% of a wild instinct, he is a complete homeboy.😂😂😂
i’ve never seen her this docile.❤
💕めっちゃ可愛い❤😊✨🐈✨ LOVE❤
the kneading is amazing. A few of my cats sometimes do that too, when they are in a good mood.
They do that when they are little when they are drinking milk from the mother but as they grow up they still do that even tho they dont need to drink milk anymore, and they only do that to those who they think is they's parent
I love the way they pattycake like all my little kitties, they're just babies like the rest of them, and I love them so so much!
We love you Big Floppa!! ❤😊
I like how this caracal purrr when she give blanket and kneeding at this Caracal cat so cutee ❤❤
