This little predator calls the semi-arid scrub of South Africa, Botswana, and Namibia home. And how did it get so darn good at its job? Well, a study in 2018 by Panthera and the University of Pretoria strapped satellite collars on 15 of these adorable murder mittens and observed them wreaking havoc on the local rodent scene. One particularly busy feline, named Inkosi, managed to take down 35 rodents in one day. That's like having a toddler who never stops asking for snacks—except with a deadly twist.

First off, let's talk stats. This kitty weighs in at just 2–5 lbs., so it's basically a Chihuahua with a serious attitude and some seriously lethal paws. And don't let the cute exterior fool you—this cat has a hunt success rate of 60%, which is like the Michael Jordan of the animal kingdom. Lions? They're barely breaking a sweat at 25%.
