The pampas cat is a small cat, about the size of a domestic
cat, with a broad face and large pointed ears. Its coat
varies from a silvery grey, through all tones of yellow
and yellowish-brown, to a light brown, with the flanks,
legs, and tail banded with a darker variation of the body
color.
The pampas cat may be found in the open grasslands and high
pampas of southern South America east of the Andes, where
it hunts by night, from the ground, and seeks birds, cavies
and other small animals.
