How fast can cats run?

You may already know that certain big cats are known for being some of the fastest creatures in the world.

For example, the cheetah can go from zero to 60 mph in three seconds flat, and a lion runs at a whopping 50 miles per hour. Your housecat is surprisingly speedy, too, and is able to run 30 miles per hour.
