Felidae (taxonomic family)

Felids are a family of animals under the scientific taxonomic nomenclature. The animals added to this category are considered related genetically by evolution and consist of animals we have come to call cats. This includes Big Cats, such as lions and cougars, and smaller cats such as lynxes and the domestic house-cat. 
There are two large surviving subfamilies within Felidae, with those being Pantherinae and Felinae. Pantherinae consists of all of the Big Cats minus cougars and cheetahs. Felinae has the rest.
