The Black-Footed Cat is a solitary animal who prefers roaming the open savanna or arid deserts during the night – which makes sense as it would be quite warm during the day. During the heat of the afternoon these cute and cuddly cats will seek shelter in unoccupied burrows, dense vegetation and even empty termite mounds. It is probably a great thing for this feline that they tend to live in the open grasslands as they are surprisingly poor climbers. Their short, stalky limbs are not suited for a life in the trees, however, they are perfect for digging, which comes in handy when they are looking for a nice underground home. I guess at the end of the day, it works out that they live in an area with few trees but the question I have is do they live in the open plains because they are terrible climbers or are they terrible climbers because they live on plains?<\/p>\n
