The Borneo bay cat is the most elusive and rarest cat in the world. It is so rare that the first photograph of a live Borneo bay cat was not taken until 1998. It was first discovered in 1855 when a dead cat was discovered. In 1992 the first Borneo bay cat was captured, but unfortunately, this cat did not live long.
This reddish brown cat lives exclusively on the Island of Borneo and has a long tail and small rounded ears. It is about the size of a domestic cat. Because so few cats have been seen, it is likely that the Island of Borneo's development is threatening the cat.

The kodkod, or guigna, is the smallest cat in South America and is about half the size of a domestic cat. Kodkods live in Chile and Argentina. They are similar in appearance to Geoffroy's cats and have yellowish-brown fur with black spots, stripes on the face and a short, thick tail.
Kodkods are nocturnal cats that live in forests and hunt birds, reptiles and other small mammals. These cats are said to be excellent climbers and occasionally hunt in the trees. Unlike other cats, kodkods are more social rather than solitary.
Not much is known about kodkods because they are so rare. Extensive habit destruction is their biggest threat. The IUCN currently lists the kodkod as vulnerable.
