Paperback. Etat : Very Good. Some seven years after abandoning the life of an international journalist for a life in the wilds - first on the track of grizzly bears and cougars in Canada and then in a remote lochside cottage in the Scottish Highlands - Mike Tomkies began a remarkable experiment, rearing the most ferocious animals to roam wild in Britain. The true wildcat is rare and only to be found in inaccessible corners of the Scottish mountains. It may look like a giant domestic tabby, but with its bright red tongue and its vicious claws an inch and a half long, it is a formidable and fearless opponent of mankind. It is justly noted for being untamable. To begin with, Mike became the custodian of two little spitfire kittens, found abandoned ina ditch when only a few weeks old. Even before they were fully weaned in his kitchen, they could only be approached with extreme care, usually with thick gauntlets as protection against the ravages of tooth and claw. He names them Cleo and Patra, and built them a sturdy natural pen between his cottage and the west wood. The kittens were only seven months old when a spitting and snarling tomcat arrived from the London Zoo to change all their lives. Mike resolved to breed a wildcat family and prepare them for a return to the wild. In the years that followed, little of the scant scientific theory on wildcat behavior was borne out by his careful observations. Mike's extraordinary adventures in raising and releasing no fewer than three litters, two pure wildcat and one a hybrid from a domestic male gone wild, are full of incident, at time hilarious, and deeply moving. The runt of Cleo's second litter demolished Mike's last defences by giving him her total trust and affection while retaining an utterly wild and independent nature. This unique story of communion between man and animal is taken from two books that have long been out of print - My Wilderness Wildcats and Liane, A Cat from the Wild - here revised and updated by the author, and illustrated with many new photographs, all in colour. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Octavo, paperback,192 pp.,colour photographs. Some seven years after abandoning the life of an international journalist for a life in the wilds, Mike Tomkies began a remarkable experiment, rearing the most ferocious animal to roam wild in Britain - the Scottish wildcat. The true wildcat is now an endangered species and only to be found in inaccessible parts of the Scottish mountains. It may look like a giant domestic tabby, but with its bright red tongue and vicious claws, it is a formidable and fearless opponent of mankind. It is justly noted for being untameable. To begin with, Mike became the custodian of two spitfire kittens, found abandoned in a ditch when only a few weeks old. Even before they were fully weaned in his kitchen, they could be approached only with extreme care, usually with thick gauntlets as protection against the ravages of tooth and claw. He named them Cleo and Patra, and built them a sturdy natural pen between his lonely cottage and the west wood. The kittens were only seven months old when a spitting and snarling ten-year-old tomcat arrived from London Zoo to change all their lives. Mike resolved to breed a wildcat family and prepare them for a return to the wild., In the years that followed little of the scant scientific theory on wildcat behaviour was bourne out by his careful observations. An update of the lengthy appendix which discusses wildcat populations, history and research on the breed including issues of genetic purity is included in this new edition. Mike's extraordinary adventures in raising and releasing no fewer than three litters, two pure wildcat and one hybrid from a domestic male gone wild, are full of incident, at times hilarious, and deeply moving. The runt of Cleo's second litter demolished Mike's last defences by giving him her total trust and affection while fiercely retaining an utterly wild and independent nature, so he became first to 'tame' a wildcat. This unique story of communion between man and animal is taken from two books that have long been out of print - "My Wilderness Wildcats and Liane", "A Cat from the Wild" - revised and updated by the author and illustrated with many new photographs, all in colour.
