Asian golden cats eat birds, large rodents, reptiles, and young deer.
Asian golden cats eat several animals. Some of the animals that they hunt and eat include birds, reptiles, sambar deer fawns, muntjacs and similar animals, ghoral, and water buffalo calves.
The Asiatic Golden Cat (Pardofelis temminckii) is what I think you're referring to. It is currently listed as "near threatened" (since 2008) but do show a declining population trend.

No, Asian Golden Cats aren't extinct quite yet. The IUCN Red List charts the Asian Golden Cat as Near Threatened. The Asiatic golden cat is broadly accounted for as uncommon and threatened by deforestation. Other exceeding threats include people hunting them for their pelt and bones. Their meat is considered a delicacy in some places and the whole animal is often roasted on a spit. The bones are occasionally ground into a powder that is given to children to treat fevers. Livestock predation, which usually leads to persecution, has also been reported. Although they are reported to be decreasing in India and Indonesia, no factual information is known of their status in the wild.

In the wild, big cats usually live until age 15 or so. In captivity, they live a few years longer. The maximum in captivity is around 20 years.
The Asian golden cat is not extinct but is near threatened.Asian golden cats inhabit some of the fastest developing countries in the world, where they are increasingly threatened by habitat destruction following deforestation, along with a declining ungulate prey base. Another serious threat is hunting for the illegal wildlife trade, which has the greatest potential to do maximum harm in minimal time. It has been reported killed in revenge for depredating livestock, including poultry but also larger animals such as sheep, goats and buffalo calves.
