Someone has already mentioned the AFD portrait address,

*I* have a portrait of you! :-) It's just a rough sketch, located at
http://www.netway.com/~hcw/furry/tefdraft.jpg . I couldn't find
your First Hussars cap badge online, though.

Gah that must be boring. You roaring alot in that warehouse? I bet

Cougars don't roar. Only the "Great" cats roar. Cougars are the biggest of
the "Lesser" cats. We're the largest cats to purr. Although I'm not exactly
sure what it would take to make *me* purr.
-Tef
Yes, Felis concolor, the same genus as your pet cat, Felis catus.
:-) Lions, tigers, etc. are in the genus Panthera. I have heard
recordings of cougars making some pretty scary noises, though.
They can scream like an angry house cat, only REALLY LOUDLY.

I still have it. Happy Kinetic just joined my ICQ list and I set it as her
on line alert.

I'm shameless.
-Tef
Why thank you. (Purrrrrrrrrr)
WE HAVE A WINNER!
-Tef
If you mean the thank you to me, you are most welcome. Perhaps I am a
little biased as I have always loved cats any way. Been told I'm not bad at
making them purr too. <w>
BlueGirl
Yeah, I'm always in trouble. But it's sooo much fun.
I never seem to have much luck around cats. Last time I was stroking one,
and it was purring contentedly it suddenly decided to shit on me. Not
particularly pleasant, nor romantic (I was round my then girlfriends)

Evidently. :=8)
I was under the impression that leopards purred, however.

Yes, I'm sure they do as well. However cougars are larger than leopards. We
are therefore still the largest cat/mammal to purr. Not the only cat to
purr, the *largest* cat to purr.
-Tef
As far as I know all bigger Cats can only purr while they breathe out.
Our domestic Cats are the only ones who can purr while breathing both in
and out.
Pumas are larger than leopards? I must admit, I didn't have that
impresson at all. Hmm ...
(A quick check of Encarta later ...)
Apparently, a puma's body-length can be up to 6.4', and a leopard's
6.3', so there's not an awful lot in it, really.
But regardless, I think the problem here stems from me getting the
wrong end of the stick about your original point.
You said only great cats roar, and that pumas, which do not roar, are
the largest cats to purr. I mininterpreted that to mean that no great
cats purr, and leopards are AFAIK classed as great cats.
So: my fault. I was quite tired when I wrote that previous post.
<:=8)
<random slightly-off-topicness>My cat snores... heh.</random
slightly-off-topicness>
My book doesn't differentiate between great cats and lesser cats. So I can't
confirm or deny the leopard is a great cat. But it is part of the PAnthera
genus so it must be.
-Tef
Yah. She claws the air and makes soft hisses when she dreams. But I
think the snoring is a sign of age. She's nine now, and I only noticed
it last year.
>> I was under the impression that leopards purred, however.

><random slightly-off-topicness>
Well, we're discussing cat noises, so it's _almost_ on topic for the
moment. Besides, off-topic? This is _AFD_! ;=8)
>My cat snores... heh. </random slightly-off-topicness>
One of mine did, too. Cats are cool to watch when they dream. :=8)

I'm back. Miss me?
Lonzia thinks a certain kitty needs some type of punishment, and so
tickles Tef unmercifully. ;P
