DaisyMae's "Word of the Day": HOOTS

Here's another informative vocabulary lesson to build your FELINE LEXICON ...

From DaisyMae's Feline Dictionary of Terms and Phrases, the word of the day is:

HOOTS (noun) ... whootz ... Not to be confused with the multi-functional nipples found on feline queens (spayed empresses are excepted, of course, by definition) or the tiny "nippies" found on kittens (of either gender) and male felines. These protuberences, typically found in groups of eight (four identical pair) barring incident or accident, exist equidistantly apart along the length of a spayed feline's torso. Hoots can be different colors depending on the breed of feline although a pale peachy-pink is considered the most common.

see also: hooties; familiar slang for the merely decorative fleshy projections

Sentence example:
1. Mom had to be very careful when combing loose fur from DaisyMae Maus so that she wouldn't accidentally comb off a hoot.
2. When Cocoa Puff dressed as a Hula GIRL for Hallowe'en, he wore a coconut bra over his "hoots."

I know I'm not teknikly supost to look at hoots, but if yoo cood just provide a pikchur so we cood reely get a good look at whut a hoot is, that wood be vary helpful. In fakt, a hole bunch of pikchurs wood be good becuz they probly look diffrint on diffrint cats.

Sorry, Skeezix ... I'm the only girlie in my family and my hoots are hard to photograph. Cocoa Puff's are easy to see, but since he's a boy, technically they aren't hoots.
