We just learned about the Leopard Cat.
Another type of wild cat is the Fishing Cat.
This is another cat that lives in South Asia, and looks a lot like the Leopard Cat.
It is about 2 feet long and weighs about 15 pounds.
The Fishing Cats are brown with stripes and spots just like the leopard cat, but they have a white spot on the back of their ears.
These cats live mostly in swamps, marshes and wetlands so they spend a lot of time in the water hunting for food.
They are very good swimmers and can even swim underwater.
Because these cats spend so much time in the water, they have layered fur that helps keep them warm, and keeps some of their fur dry even if the outside layers get wet.
