Its amazing how much the big cats can act just like house-cats. But that is because its simply feline to be that way. Look, for example, at one of your ordinary house-cat's favorite games, stalk and pounce... Well, that same game is a favorite for Tigers as well, its just if they stalk and pounce you, even in play, they'd break several bones in your body, and it might not end well for you at all. There is scarce little that makes the big cats somehow 'different' from a house-kitty, save for that size and power. Also, when you do something to upset your house-kitty, or they for some reason or another get pissed off, there is little they can do, other than just scratch ya. With a Tiger, one swipe is deadly... So honestly, all the hoopla about the big cats being somehow massively different is really just that... hoopla... there isn't truth to it. They are just feline... just really really big felines, that can do a lot of damage without meaning to (or heaven forbid, they do mean to).

Anyway, thats this cat's 2c...
