What breed is the cat that looked like a tiger. The one in Fitz's room that he throws on a bed. I really want one of those. I just hope it isnt a baby tiger.

It's a "Tigrillo" or "Ocelote" not a domestic cat neither a baby jaguar or leopard.

This cute but wild cats lives from Mexico to Paraguay and Bolivia:
