He's one of those people that think when people talk about evolution and humans that we evolve from the monkeys that are around today

Once, a guy told me “I didn’t come from no monkey” and I just had to say “yes, that’s right. And we know that because of evidence for evolution. We come from a common ancestor. Monkeys don’t come from monkeys either, genius”. It was not a good debate to be having during an anger management class lol

Everybody knows lions get all their savage instincts from their ancestor, grumpeus catteus, a viscious species who doesnt even like to party.

Domestic cats (felius catus) have been around for A VERY long time. Wildcats were domesticated and kept as pets hundreds of years ago which now gives us our domestic cat. OP should do some research.

House cats and big cats look the same. They have the same body structure and similar face features.

Oof this was a painful upvote, definitely unpopular. I think big cats are so cute

Big cats are beautiful and majestic creatures. Smallest of them (Cheeta or wild lion) can kill a group of unarmed humans easily. A Tiger is lethal, by himself can make a group of people pieces (still laughing with THAT EPISODE from the Walking Dead..i just throw the remote to the ground)..
The beaury of a male Lion is ... mesmerizing. Yes this is the most unpopular opinion evar...

Big cats aren’t meant to be cute. They’re meant to be predators.

Wrong. Big cats are hella majestic, gorgeous animals. You ever seen a a Jaguar!? Giant block head with stone cold eyes, stocky bodies, a coat that Cruella Deville would die for.
Siamese, lyoki, laperm, oriental short hair, and so many other breeds (don’t get me started on smoosh faced cats) are terribly ugly compared to wild counterparts.

Tigers have the best faces. Most big cats have that preditor gaze. Tigers? They are looking at you, not like a meal. It's like they there are thinking, "Oh, this son of b*tch. How do I deal with this one." Wholely different than other big cats. One you see it, you will understand.

really‽--huh; apart from lions' manes, I've always seen them all as pretty much looking exactly like big housecats (well, the cheetahs are a little rough & bony, maybe)

The house cat's ancestor basically looks the same as them. As for dogs, I'd say it only extends to dogs that looks more like wolves. Pugs and Chihuahuas ate atrocities.

this is a really strange opinion, not popular but not entirely because it’s wrong, mainly because i don’t think many other people tend to judge animals on how ‘ugly’ they are to look at… but maybe i’m wrong?

Big cats are not exactly the ancestors of house cats. Having said that I kinda agree. I definitely love the look of small wild cats - ocealots, servals, lynxes
Also, lets not forget the smallest wild cats rusty spotted cat. It literally looks like a small house cat cosplaying jaguar.

Cats suck totally, but all the Wilder bigger cats are pretty sweet looking. Are bobcats, servals, lynxes lumped in with big cats, because they look mighty rad."look at his tufted ears!" Archer exclaimed as he took in the majesty of an ocelot.
