Officially Britain's only native wildcat is Felis sylvestris grampia, the Scottish Wildcat, which resembles a large, mean tabby cat. It is a sub-species of the European Wildcat (F silvestris) which is now only found in Scotland, although it was once widespread throughout Scotland, England and Wales.It is now extending its range in Scotland and a few out of place wildcats have been reported in England and Wales.A number of big cats, including the lynx, vanished from Britain in prehistoric times.t is now extending its range in Scotland and a few out of place wildcats have been reported in England and Wales.

The natural habitat of cats is outdoors close to where humans live. This can be traced back to the sole ancestor of all domesticated cats (yes, ALL) â the Near Eastern Wildcat which still roams the deserts of Israel, Saudi Arabia, and other Middle Eastern countries.he story behind feral cats is as much about human intervention as it is about the feral catâs impact on and relationship with their environment. In one sense, feral cats are the result of a partnership between man and animal gone rogue.
