Clarke, L.O.
The golden cat
1904  Journal of the Bombay Natural History Society (15): 357-357

In regard to the habits of this cat, the skin and skull of which I sent to the Society's museum recently, the Lushais, who recognize it as a distinct species and call it Kei-shen (Red-cat), say it lies up in rocks and does not climb trees. It lives on kids, fowls, and small wild animals. The specimen I sent to the Society's museum was killed in a nullah, 6 miles from Aijal, at an elevation of about 1,000 feet.
