  The tail has black rings like a Serval. Cheetah tail rings are only at the tip. Genet tails look more fluffy.

  I'd say definitely a serval. Those stripes along the neck onto the shoulders in image 2 are a good indicator in addition to the tail.

  I second serval. Especially since the long black stripes on the neck exist.

  You're right - it's a serval! Short ringed tail, short face and nice stripes on the back of its neck.
