Most Padacubs are crepuscular.

Padacubs

I'm going to choose to believe that was a typo and you meant to type this instead

The cheetah and the puma/cougar are way more closely related to domestic cats than they are to the big cats of the panthera family (the roaring big cats).

They migt be tall cats, but they are no big cats.

Didn't you watch Lion King? It's Simba.

[–] TheRealKuni@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago

Thus far a rather uninspiring thing.

Lions seem more similar to dogs than to house cats.
