Lazy Leopard in the Serengeti, Tanzania No matter how fearsome, cats will be cats. When our cat lies this way, it is an invite for a belly rub and tickling its back paws. It took me 6 months before this was allowed, before I would be treated to a razor blade claw treatment. I wonder if I could do the same with this cat.

The leopard is one of the five "big cats" in the genus "Panthera".
