Scottish Wildcat Day is a special day on August 8th to celebrate and learn about the Scottish wildcat, a rare and very special wild cat found in Scotland. These cats look a bit like house cats but are wild and live in forests. People use this day to help protect them because there aren't many left. On this day, people share information, tell stories, and do fun activities to understand more about these wildcats and how to keep them safe in their natural home. It's like a big birthday party to show how important they are to Scotland!
