So I know these are rare cats that get over 3'. that's not an issue. the issue is has anyone ever seen these imported when they are under 10" ? I have done a little looking and I haven't found any that where for sale here or a few other places that was less then $400 and under what looked to be 12"

I'm somewhat considering one if I could find one the right size and price. or at all.

any help would be great.


And for those of you who don't know what this sweet cat is here's the planetcatfish link to it.

That's part of the appeal. A cat with good pattern that doesn't stop moving and gets no more then 39" normally. I would love to get one but The price is what's stopping me. I have a set price for certain fish I'm willing to pay and A lince is not something that I'm willing to spend $600 bucks on. Or at least right now lol
 
ask R1 Ridah and Johnptc, they own lince cats. Goodluck and save up as they are expensive

I've seen them as low as $400 but at the same time the ones I have seen are just to large for what I want right now. I need to find one that's 10" that would be great but I have yet to see one that's under 14". It's not something I need to have it's just something I would like to have so If I don't find one then that's ok.
