There are many cats that make the desert their home. In North America we have bobcats, cougars, jaguar, ocelots and jaguarundi. Africa has the caracal, sand cat, occasional cheetahs and even lions in the Namib Desert.

There is more than one species of cat that lives in the desert. In Africa are found both the sand cat and the caracal which live in deserts. Lions and cheetahs also enter the desert. In the Americas we have the cougar, bobcat, jaguar, jaguarundi, and ocelot that are found in deserts and a variety of other biomes.

The ocelot lives in some parts of the desert. The sand cat also lives in the desert, so there is more than one cat that lives in the desert.

How many days can a cat survive in a dessert?

Frankly, I don't think a cat would stay in a dessert; they typically don't like sweet things like cake and pie, and ice cream, while they might enjoy the milk products, is just too cold. How long a cat would survive in a desert depends on the desert, on whether the cat has acclimated to the desert, and on the condition of the cat at the start of the adventure. An ordinary house cat in an equatorial desert is unlikely to survive longer than a couple of days, and then only if he is able to catch bugs and mice overnight for their water. A cat who has learned the habits of desert prey, and who has found a cool place to stay through the day, is likely to last some time longer, possibly a month or more.
