Wild cats are solitary nocturnal animals. House cats are not. The two types generally are not up and about at the same time. Additionally wild cats avoid areas where humans live and therefore aren't in close proximity to house cats.

Yes, wild cats do eat fish, but they don't really catch them. Cats don't like to get wet, and I don't think a wild cat would go frolicking around in a river trying to catch a fish.

Wild cats are typically strict carnivores. If depleted of prey, they may turn to foliage for food (but only under extreme conditions).

All wild cats, from the Lion to the ocelot eat meat. They are also called ''carnivores'' just like the wild dog family.
