Palla’s Cat: Nature’s Round Warrior
High in the mountains lives a cat that looks permanently shocked by its own fluff. Palla’s cats didn’t mean to look like plush toys. They just needed lots of fur to survive the bitter cold. Their faces got squished flat to help them sneak up on prey across open ground. Those huge eyes stare out from their round faces like golden marbles. Mountain winters turned them into tiny tanks: short legs, stocky bodies, all wrapped in fur thick enough to make a yak jealous.
