Mal And Val
🕑 Added 2024-08-22 15:42:57 +0000 UTCYou're all a bunch of furries (yes, even you) so you know very well that the snow leopard is the only big cat that cannot roar. Unfortunately it seems that tragedy meister Valerie does NOT know this fun factoid, so enter vocal coach Mal. Val hasn't got a clue, but sister, Mal will make a cat out of you!
Warm-up sketch that ended up with color on it. Mal and Topher appear courtesy of Lopoddity. They're everything, Kae is just Kae (but I'm Kae-nough).

If it’s not worth overdoing, it ain't worth it at all!

Holy crap, I looked it up. Snow Leopards are the only cat that can make big cat sounds (hiss, growl, yowl, etc.) but also make small cat sounds at the cost of a roar - they can meow and purr. They also chatter, and chuff like a big cat when they're friendly toward someone. Val needs to quit trying to be something she's not and embrace what talents she's got. A growl can be even more menacing than a roar, especially backed up with choppers like that. Red, shut up. 🤣

Embrace your cuteness, Val! Kittiwake, Red, embrace Val's cuteness!

I actually saw a snow leopard at the Central Park zoo a few years ago and they literally sound like kitty cats, cutest lil meow I’ve ever seen. Val you’re adorable no matter what you sound like! Me-WOW

A leopard in leopard print?

...Shit, now I want to see her do this in a leotard. Just to get the animal out.

If Frog say am furry, am furry. Roaring or not, that is a mighty powerful stance.

This needs one of those "The More You Know" PSA's.

No shame, I'm worse. My first furry crush was Gadget. BASIC

They're spotty. They're naughty. They're relying on that body. A melanated leopard and a snow leopard (no relation) providing a double dose of felinity!. I am so happy that I did your furkids justice. And what fun to drew a large and in charge kitty like Mal! She gives Big Red Pig a run for her money!

I'm a furry? Since when?! oh, the mid-80s when I first saw Star Trek: TAS and M'ress? Checks out. :D

OOOOUGH attacking me like this during WORKING HOURS?? Hsjshsssh I sneak off for a break and see THIS in my email??? 💖💖💖Aahhhhh this is beautiful. I've been staring at it for hours now. 👀 The posing is so dang cool, and the way you drew Mal? The HEIGHT, the HAIR, the BEEF, the VIBE, the OUTFIT. And tiny Topher in the background dwarfed by Red and Kitti! I want to physically gnaw on this piece for nourishment. And you're offering up free critter education alongside the awesome art! I didn't know that leopards could roar (and that sno leopards cannot). Poor Val, that timid meow will never net her any respect at the office! At least her wives think she's cute...

That's really interesting! I wonder if they really do meow and purr like small cats. Sounds almost like they're an intermediate between the two families.

I saw a nature show recently that ascertained that yes, sneps are big cats, but no, they can't roar and are the family weirdos. Now Val, you've got work to do. Chin up! Shoulders back! Fluff puffed!

The side convo is just priceless. I think *technically* sneps are small cats - they can meow and purr, even if they are relatives to the big cats (leopards). Good try, Val! But even if you can't roar, you still have teeth and you still can threat-display with the best of them. Try hissing and baring your teeth instead!
