Depends. Up until very recently, it was said they didn’t – cats were divided into “purring” and “roaring” types. Now it’s been changed to say “cats who purr when breathing in and out” and “cats who only purr exhaling”; Still, the point of purring is it’s continuous, so for a lot of people, it doesn’t change that. Tigers can’t purr continuously like a domestic cat.
Tigers cannot purr. The closest thing to purring that a tiger does is called “chuffing”, and it is only done while exhaling, and uses an entirely different mechanism than purring. Lions and leopards also cannot purr.
True, nyao. Too much like catering to stereotypes to me as well. Like catgirls who _always_ end their sentences with “nyao”, you nyao? Err, I mean, “you know”? It definitely gets a little annoying, nyao, and it’s definitely not as cute as they think it is.
Does anyone else think Shere Khan’s favorite descendant is recruiting for something far more sinister? And Ms. Skunk is probably going to find herself in the middle of it.
I don’t think she’d want to get involved with him, since she really just wants to go back to being a reality-blind human and that is, like, the exact opposite of his dubiously moral goals.
Tigers do purr. All the cats do.
Doesn’t mean HT wants to admit to it

They also all do the exact same thing when presented with a cardboard box. Big cats just require bigger boxes.

H.T. sure looks a lot like the cat in my avatar these days!
Must be all that “Tea” he’s been drinking lately…
*Dodges battering rams*
Ugh, I hate it when funny animals make puns about their species like it’s a golden rule, it’s just so stupid.
You should have been fine here then, because Renard isn’t a cat.

You cannot escape the Catgirl Verbal Tic!
At least he’s not making H.T. say it’s grrrrrreat!
H.T. advertising his site?

that is morally dubious! she is walking right back into Plato’s cave knowingly,willingly and purposefully.
It’s not really dubious. If she wants to, and doesn’t hurt anybody, she should be able to.
You have any doubt that HT has dubious motives? He’s HT. He always has dubious motives.
