Aeluroidea, Ailuroidea or Feloidea is the name of a taxon (infraorder or superfamily) comprising cat-like Carnivora.

More specifically the taxon comprises:[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9] The Aeluroidea in the first, i.e. broader sense, has been sometimes called infraorder Aeluroida since 1982.

[10][11] The name Feloidea is sometimes used in a third sense - it designates the taxon corresponding to all Feliformia except the family Nandiniidae.

[6][12][13] In the main system used here, the name Aeluroidea refers to the crown Feliformia (i. e. Feliformia sensu stricto) and has the rank of an infraorder, and Feloidea refers to the Felidae, Prionodontidae and their extinct closest relatives and has the rank of a superfamily.

Crown Feliformia (more specifically the Viverridae) are attested since the early Eocene, i. e. since about 50 million years ago; they are more frequently attested since the early Oligocene, i. e. since about 30 million years ago.
