Wild Cats of the World
All authorities are agreed that the cats form one family of the order Carnivora, the Felidae. At this point agreement about their classification ends. The trouble is that Nature does not recognise human ideas of classification. The Cheetah is very different in appearance from all the other cats and has traditionally be placed in a separate genus, although some recent research suggests that the difference is more apparent than real.

Cats are some of the most impressive of all mammals. Although they retain the conservative mammalian body plan (quadrupedal, at least four toes per limb, long tail), they are remarkably derived in some aspects (retractible claws, short muscular faces, keen senses, specialized dentition). [eng]
