Science fiction, fantasy, mystery and what-not
Purrageous (Catfinition): an amazing or powerful purr, a purr so strong, it’s felt by humans in their bones, a purr capable of shaking small houses, fracturing window panes, or vibrating objects off shelves.
Usage Note: Contrary to current popular trends, purrageous is not a catonym for fluffrageous or clawrageous.
Floofergeist (Catfinition): A troublesome cat that haunts a particular person.
In Use: “Underfoot at every turn, Jade was Brenda’s floofergeist, giving orders in stringent meows, and tailslapping when she was ignored, until resorting to ankle nibbles for attention.”
C-mail, a.k.a. cat-mail (Catfinition): a secure, private open source means by which felines communicate via scents and postures.
Felinaversery (Catfinition): celebration of a special day with a cat.
Felinenists (Catfinition): Cats who believe and forward the proposition that cats are equal to humans, and deserve the same rights, privileges, food, and places to sleep and eat.
Furtime (slang) (Catfinition): that moment when a cat has had enough, and is prepared to make the fur fly and fight another cat. Such fights often involves high yowling and hissing, along with lots of displays of teeth, arched backs, and fat tails.
M.F.W.I.C., aka MFWIC: (Catfinition) – Mother floof what’s in charge, a reference to the household queen who organizes the other pets, and enforces order and structure in the floofhold.
In use: “She wasn’t big nor vocal, but she was the MFWIC, and touching any of her charges – the other household pets – meant you had to first pass her scrutiny, no exceptions.”
Scratchnature (Catfinition): Like a signature, a feline’s style of scratching at a surface, such as a door, to draw attention and be let in or out, is unique, and announces their identity to those who know them.
Finally a cartoon character willing to tell one of my jokes without wearing a disguise. That takes some balls, especially since the little guy was neutered!
Gingersaurus Mew (Catfinition): A very large ginger cat.
In Use: At twenty-two and nineteen pounds respectively, Pogo (left), and his little buddy, Scheckter, were considered gingersaurus mews.
