| Although its fur has many admirers, it is tough to raise as a pet because of its fickle meanness. |
The gem in its forehead glows on its own! It walks with all the grace and elegance of a proud queen. |
Many adore it for its sophisticated air. However, it will lash out and scratch for little reason. |
Its lithe muscles allow it to walk without making a sound. It attacks in an instant. |
Behind its lithe, elegant appearance lies a barbaric side. It will tear apart its prey on a mere whim. |
