 * Support as nominator --Tomer T (talk) 10:59, 28 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Support But I notice the two cats are of different color phases. Perhaps they both could be FP's, with yours as the main one? They could have distinct EV's; the other is from Hanover, and yours, it seems, is from the great Kingdom of Belgium. The article talks about distinct subspecies; perhaps this comes into play? If so, it should be included and emphasized. If I had to choose, it would be yours, as even though the focus isn't perfect it is more informative. Indefatigable2 (talk) 15:21, 28 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Just a note, because you refered the currently discussed picture as "mine": I'm not the photographer of any of them (but I'm the nominator of both of them). Tomer T (talk) 16:07, 28 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Support, almost entirely in focus, high EV. Brandmeistertalk  17:05, 28 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Brandmeister's right; I rescind what I said above about the focus, which is great (I should have said digital artifacts, which are mildly present, but make no real difference here); I reiterate, this image has a higher EV than the current wildcat FP; I love it; I would feel comfortable with this replacing the older image as a FP, as it would be an improvement.

 * Support. Good lighting and detail. Framing not perfect but good enough. &#208;iliff    &#171;&#187;  (Talk)  09:21, 1 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Support I like this picture. Even though the description isn't difficult to figure out for non-French-speaking people, I wouldn't mind if someone added an English description if it's going to be featured in English. – Kerαu noςco pia ◁ gala xies 19:21, 1 July 2013 (UTC)
