About The Cats

There are 36 species of wild cat in the world today. Most people are aware of the big five – tiger, lion, leopard, jaguar and cheetah. Many are familiar with the medium felines – snow leopard and cougar, or mountain lion.

Our job is to make the world aware of the the remaining 30 small wild cat species, from the world’s smallest wild cat – a tiny 2 pound beauty – to the 50 lb Clouded Leopard.
