Wait... After looking at the saber slime, there is no indication they are technically cats. We are basing this off of the fact that real life Saber-Toothed cats are cats. The ones in The Wilds have no tails, and the other features are questionable about whether they are cat like features or not. The Slimepedia mentions that they lived in the jellasic period, and so it is unknown whether they more resemble dinosaurs or Saber-Toothed cats.

The deciding factor would probably be the mouth, but it's obscured by the tusks/fangs. So the Saber Slimes are not necessarily cats.
