Cats are carnivores; they are meat eaters. They eat other animals and sometimes insects. Certain types of cats such as snow leopards even eat plants. Some are really light while others can go up to 250 pounds.
No one know exactly how many species of wild cats there are, but many experts think that there are 36.
The reason no one knows is because most wild cats act the same and look alike. Although they look alike, if you look closely, you will notice that no patterns are the same.
All wild cats are part of a group except for four of them, which are the rusty-spotted cat, the serval, the marbled cat, and the manul. There are 8 groups total. The groups are the ocelot lineage, the lynx linage, the panthera linage, the caracal linage, the bay cat linage, the leopard cat linage, the puma linage and the domestic cat linage.
