EDITOR’S NOTE
Felidae are a family of mammals that are sometimes referred to as cats. But each cat has its own features that make it stand out from others.
Put together with the help of the Cape Leopard Trust, this edition will uncover the distinctive features that separate a cheetah from a leopard – cats of the same family who are often confused with each other.

Both cats can purr, but each has its own unique body patterns, paws and claws, and times of the day when it is most active.
