Sly Minx (not technically a cat, she's a minx. If you don't know what that is, look it up!)

I suspected shenanigans, so I took your advice and I looked it up. There appears to be no such thing as a 'minx'.

Minx cat
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Minx)
Jump to: navigation, search

There is no breed of cat called the Minx cat although the term is widely found, and erroneously used, on the internet and usenet. Advertisements regularly appear for Minx Cats, adding further credence to this non-existent breed.

The term is a common error or colloquially used by people unfamiliar with the Manx cat, a tailless breed of cat originating from the Isle of Man, Great Britain.

Mynx is sometimes used to indicate a first generation cross between a Manx cat and Sphynx breed or a hybrid between the Manx breed and the wild Bobcat. Some bobcat hybrids are called Lynx e.g. Desert Lynx and American Lynx due to their resemblance to the lynx.

I really don't care, but you told us to look it up.

Moggie and NinjaPirateCatgirl are my only two cat-types.
Moggie is in my sig and the NPC won't sit still for pictures.
So there you go...

Well if you people would STOP using an encyclopedia that anyone who goes to it can change, then you might have had more success.

LOL that's hilarious! I'm a terrestrial zoologist by training and currently a science teacher. I was thinking of minx totally in the sense of cat-related animals. This definition never entered my mind. Wikipedia seems to focused on the biological as well. I stand corrected, minx is a word. But now the question is, why does she look like a cat? She's just flirtatious. What's the cat connection?

Her cat ears? Some people call some women Catty.. *shrug* maybe she just wanted a flirty catgirl... cause those dont exist or anything...

It's because of the attitude of a cat. They go along well imo.

There ya go. That's fine. Your reasons are valid. Its your toon.

Don't misinterpret my above post. I was laughing at myself and Wikipedia, not you. With my background and job experience, I just look at everything scientifically. My good friend and I name many toons in several MMORPGs after animals. Names that come to mind are Red Tail, Sparrow Hawk, Doberman, Grison and Coachwhip. I wrongly assumed the same thing as I read names in this thread. Minx made me think and when I looked in Wikipedia, it was like it read my mind. It gave me the exact answer I was looking for....a minx was not a real animal! Lo and behold, you didn't mean for it to be an animal. Your definition is valid, although not animal related. So again, I am just amused by my and Wikipedia's "narrow-mindedness".

And for the record, I also have a cat-themed toon.... a 25 claws/SR scrapper named Mouser (a cat adept at catching mice )

Wow! Very nice brushwork.

When I went on my animal kick, I made a few things ...
And to stick with the thread theme, here's Feral Fang, SS/INV Brute.

After him, I moved onto fish men... Razor Fin

Of course, the Mighty Rooster Man phase...

And there were a slew of others, I just have no pictures of them unfortunately.

Unless you count my villain Pearl and Mr. Black (Mr. Black being the possessed demon Panda on her shoulder), that's it for my animal themed.

Though.. This was just for cats I suppose... Maybe I'll go make a catgirl to fit in. ;o

Catbois work too hehe! Though if you make a catgirl that's never a bad thing!

My main Nox is my #1 Cat-girl (see sig), but her two sisters are a PB cat-girl & a WS cat-girl, they were killed by crey during "tests" and came back as Kheldians.

Here's my main catgirl, Feral Tigress

granted, she's a few levels beyond what Crey knows about (oo I wonder how that happened?) but....

I've got two active catgirls, both on Virtue.

Galena Storm is my main. She's a mutant who was kidnapped by a lab who wanted to run experiments, and in the process, they gave her electrical powers. She has very little memory of her past, and is now learning how to be a hero while hoping to avoid recapture by the lab.

My other active catgirl is Tigra Swipe. She's from another dimension, where she was a member of a fighting legion. Her title was Fifth Adjunct to The Blade. Part of the selection to the Adjuncts was to undergo a merging with a familiar. Her legions' familiars were cats, and as a result of that merging, she has a mental link to her kitten Kilira, and grew cat ears and some other feline features.
