What is the most endangered cat breed?

I would have to say the Iberian Lynx as it has faced extinction repeatedly. Additional Information: The Iberian Lynx is listed by the International Union of Conservation for Nature, or the IUCN Red List with a status of "critically endangered", and the population trend posted as "decreasing". They are also protected by the Convention of International Trade in Endangered Species, or CITES. Some consider the Iberian Lynx as part of the "big cat" group even though they are not really large. There are many small cats in circumstances as dire as the Iberian Lynx, but there is not a specific cat that has been chosen formally as the most endangered by the IUCN Red List or the US FWS Endangered Species List. For more details, please see the sites listed below.
