Yes cats are a wild animal.

Cats that live in the wild are classified as being wild animals.

Even though people have cats as pets and those are domesticated the cats that are pets are not considered wild animals because they live in a house with people.

But the cats that live in the wild are considered to be wild animals and you need to be very careful when you encounter a cat that is in the wild or any strange cat.

Cats that are in the wild are sometimes afraid of humans and may see the human as a threat to them so they may try to hiss at you or scratch you.

Never pick up or try to hold a cat that is in the wild or a cat you do not know.
