Best Answer

Safari cats are a very rare hybrid, a cross between the wild Geoffroy's cat and a Domestic Shorthair cat. In appearance and temperment, they are just like a bit domestic cat with a unusual coat pattern.

The reason they are so rare is due to the fact that the Geoffroy's cat has 36 chromosomes while a domestic cat has 38 chromosomes - thus most breeding attempts fail. Due to this, interest in this hybrid decreased and shifted attention to more successful hybrid breeds such as the Bengal, which is still very popular today.

Can a safari cat can kill a raccoon or defend itself from harm?

It depends on how badly injured the cat is. Raccoons have been known to gang up on cats and carry them away to eat them; there is no probability of survival in that case. In other cases, cats have gotten away from raccoons with a few bites, and have survived with a few doses of antibiotics to stop the infection.
