Are there any domesticated Ocelot breeds?

    I don't really know much about pets. I imagine ocelots come under the wild animal umbrella and would be expensive/illegal to own. Are there any domesticated breeds that are easier under both categories?

    I know that is incredibly unhelpful but it's amusing and was the first thing I could think of...

    As far as I know there is no breed made from crossing with an ocelot. There are some breeds which are made by crossing domestic felines with their wild cousins, the most common of which would be the Bengal, but I don't think there's any with an ocelot. My closest you would get would be an Ocicat, which is an entirely domestic breed which was bred to resemble an ocelot, but even then I don't know of any breeders in Ireland!

    You should never apologise for something with dancing cats in it. :D
