"The world's fluffiest cat is getting its very own park as part of a drive to save the species which is hunted for its luxuriant fur.

The 12-square-mile area within Sailyugemsky Nature Park in Russia's Siberian Altai Mountains will be a scientific zone where the furry felines can be studied and protected.
