If you mean gender, than check the underside by the tail. If there is, "something" it's a male. If not, it's a female.
The domestic cat is of the genus Felis.Other genera of the cat family, Family Felidae include:Acinonyx (cheetah)CaracalCatopumaLeopardusLeptailurus (serval)LynxNeofelis (clouded leopards, 2 species)Panthera (jaguar, lion, leopard, tiger)ProfelisPumaUncia (snow leopard)There are about 38 species in Felidae in total.
Felis leo, also known as the lion, is most closely related to other big cats in the Panthera genus such as tigers, leopards, and jaguars. They all share a common ancestor and are part of the Felidae family.
The genus IS Felis. The whole classification is: Kingdom - Animalia; Phylum - Chordata; Class - Mammalia; Order - Carnivora; Suborder - Feliformia; Family - Felidae; Subfamily - Felinae; Genus - Felis. The species below the genus Felis get a little fuzzy - with Felis sylvestris catus being the consensus, but with some usage (archaic, I think) of Felis domesticatus or Felis domesticus catus, and Felis catus ('catus' being italicized). [SEE LINK: > re: where, why, and why not domesticated animals should have that status explicit in the scientific nomenclature of a species. Do multi-generation feral cats lose the nomenclature for being a domesticated species, for example?] The link concludes: "*ANY* designation of a domesticated species is theoretically incorrect..."
"Felis" is a genus of cats, including the standard domestic cat and it's nearest wild relatives.
No. The mountain lion is a completely different species. Also called cougar, puma, or catamount, it is an animal of the Americas, whereas the true lion is an African and Asian animal. The mountain lion is Felis Concolor, and the lion is Panthera Leo, totally different branches of the cat family. Lions are in the genus Panthera, along with tigers, leopards and jaguars, and pumas are in the genus Felis, which includes the smaller cats.
Genus Felis the "genera of small cats, while genus panther is the "genera" of big cats.
There are various genus of cats these include felis (this includes all small cats) and Panthera, which includes lion leopard jaguar snow leopard and tiger
As a genus may have many species genus felis in the present question has two species named as f

The term Felis concolor is obsolete and the animal is now called Puma concolor with the genus being Puma.

"Genus" comes from a Latin word that means something like "family."It's the first half of the Linnaean binomial taxonomy.So, for example, domestic cats are Felis catus. (The genus name is always capitalized, the species name is always not.) The closely related wildcat is Felis silvestris. The also closely related sand cat is Felis margarita. The somewhat more distantly related lion, while still a felid, is in a different genus, Panthera (specificially, Panthera leo).
