Wildcat
(Felis silvestris)
It has been suggested that wildcats domesticated themselves about 9000 years ago, in response to the availability of rodents in grain stores.
The domestic cat is classified as a subspecies of the wildcat.
A wild type is a cat with characteristics of a cat that is found in the wild: short-haired, brown striped tabby.
