The best description one can give a person that has no idea what an African Serval Cat is, would be to say: it looks like a miniature cheetah. Most people have seen a Cheetah on the Discovery Channel or a National Geographic special, so this at least gives them some idea of what the creature looks like. The size of the two felines is quite different along with many other differences, but the colors and markings of the two felines are similar, and is a good starting point.
