The Grand Sequoia
____________________________________________________________________________________
____________________________________________________________________________________
A giant, auburn-barked tree rose out of the ground. it was nonetheless old and wise, and had seen many cats, humans, and other wildlife. It had stood there from and for, seemingly forever. Clearly discerned are the marks of many cats, big and small, in passing. The bark is not too tough for the cheetah, not to soft for the tiger. Every cat is capable of safely making a mark on this tree; clawing in who they are and why they should be remembered.
SHUT UP, I KNOW I'M NOT POETIC. D:
Anyways, this came from another thread. Mark your place with an introduction, and this is where we'll keep track of the forum cats! =D I'll try to add you, but a gentle prod will remind me if I've forgotten you; I am slightly forgetful. nn;

PM me if I haven't updated OR the math is wrong! I'm frequently wrong in math especially with these brackets! PLEASE PM ME AND LET ME KNOW! Thankyou! =D
1: the brackets are if I'm counting Teigra as a Puma(North America) or a Tiger(Asia), and whether I'm counting Hakumei as a Jaguar or a Leopard(South America vs. Africa).
2:Are we counting melanistic/"white" cats(Panthers, Florida Panthers, White Tigers, White Servals, etc...) as a separate species? It just seems all too often they are more regarded as a different species(Or I'm delusional and my little Therian self is feeling territorial this evening, either or. )
