Oh, how about the binturong? Also called bearcat, although it is neither. And supposedly smells like popcorn or corn chips. And it looks cool. :)

@Crazycrazycultist, they're about, or just a little bit larger than a domestic shorthair, and can breed with domestic cats, which is why pure wildcats are so rare (at the last count there were 35 left, plus these two)

This southeast Asian cicada!  Tacua speciosa.  One of the largest cicadas in the world.  But it can only be found in Singapore, Malaysia, and parts of Indonesia.

And apparently not very "domestic". The Scottish clan, MacPherson, has a motto, "Touch not the cat but a glove.", which is based on the Scottish wildcat. :)

Lord Howe Island stick insect.  Thought to be extinct by 1920 but rediscovered in 2001.  As far as we know, only 24 of them still exist.
