< The Encyclopedia Americana (1920)

CAT, a predatory animal of the familyFelidæ, (q.v. for physical characteristics). Allfeline animals are “cats” in the broader sense;but in the more restricted and common usagethe name refers to the smaller, long-tailed, typicalmembers of the genus Felis. The type isthe wildcat (F. catus) of Europe and westernAsia, but now extinct in Great Britain, and veryrare except in the wilder forests of Germany,Austria and eastward. It is somewhat largerand of stouter build than the domestic cat; itsbody is yellowish gray, with a dark line alongthe back, and many darkish stripes on the sidesand across the legs; its tail, of moderate length,is ringed and tipped with blackish; and thesoles of the feet are black. It is a fierce animal,preying upon anything it is able to overcome,goes abroad chiefly at night, and makes itslair in hollow trees and crannies among rocks,and is almost untamable. This brief descriptionof habits will answer for most of the othercats to be mentioned, varying with their diversehabitats; but some of the others have shownthemselves far more amenable to domestication.It should be noted that the American “wildcat”is not this species, but a very different one —the short-tailed lynx (q.v.).

Mivart enumerates in his monograph 36species of these smaller cats, but some of themare probably mere varieties of others; and wecan here mention only a few of the betterknown ones, larger descriptions of which maybe found under their names. The mostimportant one is the Egyptian or Caffre cat (F.libyca), the main source of our household pets,described in the article Cats, Domestic.Another important African species is the widelydistributed serval (q.v.) whose fur is valuable.A reddish-brown species, called the golden-haired(F. rutila), and two or three others,little known, inhabited the West African forests.Asia has many varieties of cats, some of whichare of large size. Thus the spotted cat (F.tristis) of the interior of China has a bodynearly three feet long; and nearly as big is thehandsome, spotted and striped fishing cat (q.v.)of eastern India and the Malayan Peninsula.Others of note are the leopard cat (q.v.) ofBengal and eastward; the common Indianjungle cat or chaus (q.v.); the little rusty-grayjungle cat (F. rubiginosus), which is the smallestof its tribe; the Manul of northeasternAsia; the flat-headed Malayan cat (F. planiceps),which is uniformly brown in hue;the marbled cat (F. marmorata) , richlyornamented with wavy, irregular lines and blotchesof color, and the bay or golden cat (F. aurata)of northern India, Malaya and the East Indies.This last animal is of special interest as it isbelieved to be the parent stock of the Siamesedomestic cat, which was formerly reserved forroyalty alone. Its fur is pale golden-chestnutin color, becoming bay along the back; thethroat and under parts are white, while theface is strikingly ornamented with stripes ofblack, white and orange.

America has several species of wildcatsbesides the large jaguar (q.v.) and the puma orcougar (q.v.); those of North America aremore properly defined as lynxes (see Lynx),but Central and South America have severaltypical felines. Of these the ocelot, the margay,the eyra and the jaguarondi, are describedelsewhere under their names. A very distinctiveand well-known species of the plains'region south of Brazil is known as grass cat,pajero and pampas or grass cat (q.v.). SeeCheeta, Felidæ;Lynx.
