How to distinguish between pure and non-pure civet cats?

The distinguishing method is as follows:

1, look at the coat. The coat is short and hard, healthy, shiny and smooth, without fluffy and messy phenomenon. There is no thick fluff. Generally speaking, brown or dark brown is the color of its coat, but some cats also have white coat, that is, white hair area. Civet cats have very clear and obvious markings.

2. Look at the coat color. Civet cats are mostly mackerel stripes or spots, similar to tiger skin, short, shiny and smooth. Except for the yellowish hair on the abdomen and forehead, the hair on the body is three colors on one hair.

For example, brown hair has a black root, a light middle part and a brown tip, while black hair has a light root, a dark middle part and a black tip. Brown tiger spots are considered as the standard color of this breed.

3. Look at the limbs. Muscular, stout, broad and big claws, stout limbs, strong muscular sense and dexterity. The claws are oval, with five fingers in the front paw and four toes in the back paw. The back of the claw is pale yellow from the wrist to the fingertip, surrounded by a black ring. Above the wrist, the paw pads are black, and the hairs between the paw pads are black, among which the ones with black nails are top grade.

Since ancient times, civet cats have recorded huge claws. In Gong Yandou cats, claws are their winning weapon. So the thick claws are the top grade. The Mao Mao tip of the claw points to the gold tip.

4. Look at the head. ? It also has an existing "M" shaped stripe on its forehead, and there will be an extended line connection at the corner of its eye.

The nose of an adult civet cat is long and straight, and the whole head feels like a trimmed gem-cut (hexagonal) shape, so the length of the face is greater than the width, and there is a slightly protruding semicircular skull between the ears. The face is wide at the same level as the eyes, the contour of the face suddenly contracts from the inner corner of the eye and protrudes out of the nose. The bridge of the nose is tall and straight, moderate in size, with no wide or narrow performance. The nose is brick red, dark brown and black.

5. Look at your eyes. The eyes are almond-shaped, and the outer corners of the eyes droop slightly. Eyes are mainly yellow, green and brown, of which green is the top grade. Ears are medium or slightly smaller. At the position slightly in the middle of the head, the distance between the two ears is moderate, the root of the ear is wide, and it basically opens forward, and the deviation to both sides is not more than 15 degrees.

6. Look at your ears. On both sides of the larger head, the ears are moderate in size, basically straight forward, and the roots of the lower ears are wider. The distance between the ears increases with age, and the distance between the ears in adulthood is one ear or two eyes to two and a half eyes. The smaller the distance between the ears in childhood. The hair behind the ear is rare, and the hair behind the middle part of the ear is light in color. Adult male cats sometimes have long hair at the tip of their ears, but it is very rare in female cats.

7. Look at the tail. The length is shorter than the body length and straight, stout and powerful, with short tail hair, close to luster and no fluffy and messy phenomenon. The whole tail seems to be divided into several sections by a dark ring, and there is no obvious sudden tapering at the tail tip.

The above is the way to tell whether a civet is pure.
