Catfolk

Anthropomorphic cat people. Regardless of where they are in the world they usually have a strong sense of curiosity and adventure.

Appearance
In general, catfolk are lithe and slender, standing around four to five feet tall. While clearly humanoid, they possess many feline features, including a coat of soft fine fur, slit pupils, and a sleek, slender tail. Their ears are pointed, but unlike those of elves, are more rounded and catlike. They manipulate objects as easily as any other humanoid, but their fingers terminate in small, sharp, retractable claws. These claws are typically not powerful enough to be used as weapons, but some members of the species—either by quirk of birth or from years of honing—can use them with deadly effect. Feline whiskers are not uncommon, but not universal, and hair and eye color vary greatly.

There are generally two types of catfolk that can be found in the world, those who more closely resemble big cats (Pardus-type ) and those who more closely resemble house cats (Felis-type). The former are more rare and usually much stronger (though not necessarily more agile) than the rest.

Catfolk children are usually referred to as cubs, kitten is generally used as a term of endearment or to berate someone who is acting “kittenish”.
