*Blank*, Cheetah, Jaguar, Margay, and leopard?
 
serval, leopard, jaguar, margay, cheetah?

But I guess it depends on what part of the cat it's taken from...
 
That seems more like it.
 
Well, I like to think I know a lot about cats, but number 1 and 4 have me stumped, I think because they may not be that accurate. 2 is definitley leopard, 3 is definitely jaguar, and 5 is definitely cheetah. If I had to guess for 1, I would say oncilla (aka tigrina). 4 could be margay as suggested, but again I don't think it's a very good depiction (but maybe I'm just whining because they stumped me!).

I hope you are going to reveal the answers at some point.
 
Great challenge Orycteropus, surprisingly tough though. My attempt:
Margay?, Leopard, Jaguar, different subspecies of leopard or a leopard cat?, and cheetah.
 
If it's okay I'd like to change my no.1 answer to ocelot? Looks slightly like the ocelot shoulder before the main rosette pattern starts...
 
I'd definitely assume that #1 is ocelot, #2 leopard, #3 jaguar and #5 cheetah. Only #1 and #4 should really pose much of a problem, and so I'll guess that #4 is a margay. It could be a leopard cat as well...hmmm.
 
I think the answers are (from l-r) Margay, Leopard, Jaguar, Ocelot and Cheetah. This was a tough question!
 
Thanks for the participation, I really enjoyed this little game, hope You all as well. ;)

May I enclose the solution ...
