Calling all Cool CATS! - check out American Heritage Dictionary

Below is a posting I received from the Human's website I thought might be of interest to all cool CAT lovers!


FOR THE CAT LOVER in us all, the editors of the American Heritage® Dictionary scratched through the brand-new Fifth Edition to compile a top ten list of the most feline words from this 2000+ page tome. Hoped you might want to share some with your readers:
ailurophile
ailurophobe
colorpoint*
grimalkin
ocicat*
ragdoll*
rex*
Scottish fold*
sphynx*
vibrissa

(* = new to A5)

You and your readers can look these words up at the free site http://www.ahdictionary.com/ (and even purchase a copy of there, if interested).

One final fun thing that I thought would be fun for your readers! To mark the occasion of the new AHD5 we’ve created a special Web site where users can create a photo (of themselves, or their pets!!) composed of their own words – it’s easy, fun, and free! Visit here at http://www.youareyourwords.com/. Your readers can also follow us on Twitter at @ahdictionary.


Many thanks to American Heritage Dictionary with providing our cat loving followers with this information!

Until next week,
