The World's Deadliest Cat Is Absolutely Adorable

Don’t mess with this little kitty.

The deadliest cat in the world isn’t a lion or tiger. It’s the black-footed cat, which weighs less than 5 pounds, making it one of the smallest cats in Africa, per National Geographic.

A new video from the BBC’s “Big Cats” series features an adorable black-footed cat nicknamed Gyra and shows why she’s oh so deadly.

Check it out above.

The special also highlights another cute killer: the rusty spotted cat, which is the smallest cat in the world.
