Best Answer

MEAT
A wild cat will eat anything a domestic cat will eat. If you want to feed a wild cat, give it cat food. Otherwise it will hunt for its own meal - small rodents such as mice, lizards, birds and even skunks or larger mammals depending on the type of feline or felid. Wild cats can be dangerous though so be careful.

There are 36 species of wild cats found throughout the world - lions, tigers, cougars, jaguars, bobcats, etc. Their diet depends on the particular species and location. Some eat large herbivores such as antelope, buffalo and deer. Smaller species eat rodents, rabbits and other small animals.

If you are referring to domestic cats that have reverted to the wild, they are properly called feral cats as they are not true wild animals.
