'''Felidae''', more commonly known as '''felines''', is the [[mammal]] biological [[W:Family (biology)|family]] of [[cat]]s ('''felids'''). &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Overview ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Non-extinct felids belong to one of two  [[W:Subfamily|subfamilies]]:&lt;br /&gt;
* '''[[W:Pantherinae|Pantherinae]]''' , which includes the [[tiger]], [[lion]], [[jaguar]], [[leopard]], [[snow leopard]] and [[clouded leopard]].&lt;br /&gt;
* '''[[W:Felinae|Felinae]]''' , which include all the non-pantherine cats.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The most familiar felid is the [[cat|domestic cat]] (''Felis silvestris catus'').&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Felids are the strictest [[carnivore]]s of the 13 terrestrial families in the [[W:order (biology)|order]] [[W:Carnivora|Carnivora]]. They are [[W:obligate carnivores|obligate carnivores]] (or '''hypercarnivores'''), as they must consume meat to survive because of the much higher proportion of [[W:protein|protein]] they require in their diet, much more than most other mammals.&lt;br /&gt;
