Caturday

I had heard of Caturday when I wrote the piece, but I’d understood that it was a proto-lolcats practice that was different from the actual lolcats meme.

2007 July 16, Lev Grossman, “Lolcats Addendum: Where I Got the Story Wrong”, in Time:

Lolcats - images of anthropomorphic felines captioned with mis-spelt web-speak ("im in ur bed zleepin" and so on) - made their first appearance on the site, during its regular "Caturday" slot, but went on to dominate blogs and sites the length and breadth of the internet.

2010 August 31, Jon Kelly, Jude Sheerin, “The strange virtual world of 4chan”, in BBC News:

When he and his wife began to have children, they nicknamed them after Internet memes like the lolcat holiday, Caturday.

2012, Katherine Losse, The Boy Kings: A Journey into the Heart of the Social Network, Free Press, →ISBN, page 148:

(Internet slang) Saturday, as the day of the week for posting lolcats or other pictures of cats.

ligress

Colette has rescued cougars, bobcats, jaguars, panthers, tigers, lions--and even a ligress --a cross between a lion and a tiger.

1994 December 6, Tim May, “Waystation Trying to Save Tigers in Ireland”, in Los Angeles Times:

Called Shasta because "she hasta" have this and "she hasta" have that, the bossy liger — she was a ligress, to be more precise — was one of the zoo's most beloved and famous residents before she died in 1972 at the ripe age of twenty-four.

2008, Brandon Griggs, Utah Curiosities: Quirky Characters, Roadside Oddities & Other Offbeat Stuff, Insiders' Guide, published 2008, →ISBN, page 128:

There are a number of cases of ligers and ligresses in the world but experts say it is impossible for males to conceive and exceptionally rare for females to give birth.

2012 September 11, “The rarest big cat in the world needs a normal moggy as her foster mum”, in The Siberian Times:

cataholic

Without the fur and purr, we wouldn't be the cataholics that we are today.

2000, Bob Walker & Frances Mooney, Crazy Cats, Andrews McMeel Publishing (2000), unnumbered page (acknowledgements)

Where once only farmers and "cataholics" kept cats, today they are in all types of households, especially in homes with a history of dog-keeping and little knowledge of feline behavior.

2007, Bruce Fogle, If Your Cat Could Talk, DK Publishing, →ISBN, page 6:

“Maybe I need to send you to House Cats Anonymous,” he teased. “Hello, my name is Jake and I'm a cataholic. I can't stop eating them alive.”

catio

So some cat owners who would never dream of letting their pets roam free outside have come up with a creative compromise: an enclosed space — usually in the form of a screened-in porch or deck — that allows them to share the great outdoors. Please don’t call it a cage. They prefer the term “catio.”

2010 June 16, Jennifer A. Kingson, “‘Catios’ Bring Cats Outdoors”, in The New York Times:

And we have a catio of sorts, a small screened porch built by the previous owner for humans.

2010 June 21, Teresa Mears, “Do your kitties need a 'catio'?”, in MSN Money:

She made a “fence” of them for Varmint inside the wrought iron white fence that bordered the patio so that it was his “catio.”

2010, Sue Tatem, Mones, Xlibris, →ISBN, page 35:

They're happy to hang out on what we call their “catio” all day, lazing on the couch while glowering at chipmunks and letting the sun warm the downy fur on their bellies.

Ally, the alpha cat in my household, has a severe case of catitude. She demands to sit on my lap and leaves as soon as she has altered whatever I was doing.

2003 October 5, “Cats' Drinking: Is It Smarts Or Snobbery?”, in The Tribune, San Luis Obispo, California:

Like "Garfield," "Catwoman" is really a parody of catitude, offering glib mockery of a domestic species notorious for its pride and hauteur.

Luna looked at me with a very skeptical face, "Nyao?!"

catness

My theory is that every person contains a certain predetermined essence of either catness or dogness; a rare few contain essences of both. Catness is caution, privacy, order, mind; dogness is impulsiveness, sociability, chaos, body.

2002, Rebecca McClanahan, The Riddle Song & Other Rememberings, page 110:

For example, every cat is different, but all cats share the same catness because they participate in the cat form.

2009, Naomi Zack, The Handy Philosophy Answer Book, page 31:

The cat didn't have a sense of what a witch was, and didn't care, but it was willing to tolerate his catness as long as he maintained proper deference.

2013, Amelia Atwater-Rhodes, Promises to Keep, page 125:

ავაზა

From Middle Georgian ავაზა (avaza, “cheetah”), from Old Georgian ავაზაჲ (avazay), ავაზი (avazi, “leopard”). From Iranian, however, according to Hübschmann and Ačaṙyan, via Old Armenian յաւազ (yawaz); see there for more.


یوز

From Middle Persian ywc (yōz); see there for further information.


ywc

Persian: یوز (yuz)

desc

→ Central Kurdish: یووز (yûz, “small hunting dog”) (dialect of the Mokri tribe)

→ Pashto: يوز m (yuz, “cheetah”)

Paul Horn connects with the Iranian source of Old Armenian յոյզ (yoyz, “seeking, searching; trouble, agitation”), յուզեմ (yuzem, “to seek, to search; to trouble, to agitate”), interpreting the original meaning of the animal's name as “the seeker”. Compare the simple verb یوختن (yuxtan)/یوزیدن (yuzidan, “to look for, to search for, to seek out”). It should be noted that formerly the cheetah was tamed by aristocrats and used to hunt antelopes in much the same way as is still done with members of the greyhound group of dogs; compare the names hunting leopard, hunting cat, Jagdleopard.
Cognate with Khwarezmian [script needed] (ywz, “cheetah”), Northern Kurdish osek (“panther”) and with the Iranian borrowings: Old Armenian յովազ (yovaz), յաւազ (yawaz), Georgian ავაზა (avaza), Classical Syriac ܝܘܙܐ (yōzāʾ, yawzāʾ).

catsicle

He slipped out the back door, and we did not see him for two full days. The temperature dropped dramatically, it was close to freezing those two nights. We figured, too bad, the little bugger had it made, with us, and now he'll be a catsicle or a catsplat in the road...So we gave up on him, and went to the Humane Society, and adopted a bouncing bruiser named Smokey.

1995 November 21, Virtuanna [username], “Re: A Pox Upon The Kitten Dumpers”, in rec.pets.cats (Usenet):

'The cat's gone,' my father said. 'Face it, that cat can hardly stay alive inside the house. She's not coming back. And if you hold the door open much longer, the rest of us will freeze to death too.'
'Poppy!' my stepmother shouted.
'She's frozen now,' I said helpfully. 'She's a catsicle.'

жолбарыстармен

From Proto-Turkic *bars, related to Proto-Mongolic *bars. Cognate with Turkish pars, Old Turkic jolbars ("tiger").
The component jol is interpreted differently by researchers. V.V. Radlov, A.M. Shcherbak, and G. Clauson suggest that jolbars arose from albars due to paronymic convergence with jol (road, strip). W. Bang also suggests that jolbars could have been syncopated from jolabars, which were named for their variegated skins. The oldest recorded meaning of jolbars is tiger rather than leopard. However, the absence of a long vowel in the Turkic lit. jolbars obscures its semantic derivation.

мысықтардан (ablative plural)
мысықпен (instrumental singular)
мысықтармен (instrumental plural)

From Proto-Turkic *bɨńĺ(ɨk) (“cat”).
The word may stem from contamination with mechin ("monkey") from Mongolic languages. The suffix -k in forms like pish-ik/mish-ik is a diminutive marker, possibly borrowed from Iranian Kurdish piši/pišila or Pashto rizō. Scholars also link the base mish- to Persian mush ("mouse, rat") or Mongolic mis/mił.
Onomatopoeic origins are suggested by A.M. Shcherbak, with pyshyk derived from pysh (used to call cats). Mongolic forms like mis/müs may have influenced Turkic terms like Altai miy-ak ("cat, tiger") and Tuvan miy-yt ("cat"). Diminutive forms, like Old Uyghur mish-kich and Uzbek pishә, also show Turkic influence. Borrowing into Romanian is noted, with the form *piše ("cat") derived from Turkish dialect *pisi(k).
Cognate with Turkish pisi, Kyrgyz мышык (mışık), Uzbek mushuk, Azerbaijani and Turkmen pişik, Tatar песи (pesi), песәй (pesäy), Karakalpak pıshıq, Kumyk мишик (mişik), Uyghur مۈشۈك (müshük), Old Turkic miškič with alternative variant include muš.
