Whooo look more headworld stuff

These guys are called Calcats they are lesser demons that are often domesticized, the male Calcats are the only ones that stay domesticated. The females are dangerous and nocturnal, they are much larger (about the size of a small horse, where as these guys are the size of small cats)

Calcats are sentient and can talk, they are not very smart however due to a very small brain connected to their eye in the socket of their skull.

Their mouths open in the middle of their necks, this helps them to be able to see what is around them while eating. Their necks can spin nearly 280 degrees around and their bones (including females) are hollow and they are there-fore very light.
They are known to be quite selfish and often just stick with their masters for food and safety. The males range from Rat sized to cat sized and have many varying coat colours and types.

The have the ability to float, like many of the indigenous inhabitants of Gehnneya and so they don't usually have a foot or toes, some can however (the females have feet similar to hands, this helps them climb) they can walk however, and they look like cats walking in socks, lifting their legs up one at a time in a very unco-ordinated manner, some have mastered walking and look like a show pony prancing.

Male Calcats all have short tails, the hair can grow long but the tail itself is always short.

----------------------------------------

About the two in the reference:
The Dark coloured one is named Pip, he is owned by a half-Elf Priest named Abraham, now, he has been eternally tied to The hat that Abraham wears due to the both of them being possessed by it (to an extent).

In Gehnneya, there is a virus known as the Umbra Virus, it affects (or can effect) everything in Gehnneya if the being has a weak soul. When a loved piece of clothing or accessory stays intact for atleast 100 years (and has to be worn by the user) the object becomes sentient and gains a weak, but functional soul, this being is called an Umbravesti. Umbravesti are automatically affected by the umbra virus as they have impeccably weak souls. An Umbravesti then finds its host and attaches itself for the host, feeding slowly off of their soul and feelings.
To know if an object or being has been affected by the Umbra Virus all you have to do is look at their eyes (if its an object it will grow eyes, eyes are very important in Gehnneya). If they have the 6 large eyelash-like tendrils they are infected.

Any way, to get back to Pip, he is the least sought after type of Calcat, the Sphinx or short haired Calcats are considered ugly and are often abandoned and stray, Whiskers are also not an admired trait (although it is highly beneficial for their lifestyle) if a Calcat is born with whiskers they are often shaved, whiskers help with their balance and sensory perception. Pip also lacks in colour diversity and that is also a let down breeding wise. Pip also has what the breeders call a "Blimped Neck" this is formed due to a Calcat having thicker bones in the neck, Calcats with a Blimped Neck often have poor balance.

As you can see by his eye, he is infected with the Umbra Virus, due to direct contact to Abraham's Hat, Phillip.

-----

The lighter Calcat, Kero, is one of the prime examples of Calcat breeding, as you can see, he has developed small feet, this is mostly due to inbreeding but it is a desired trait for breeders. He has a brightly coloured tongue and has more than one tone and patterns on his fur, spots and stripes are very popular with shows and so they are very sought after. Kero has a medium whisp coat and is very soft to the touch, Medium and long coats are the most desired. There are shaggy coats and Rough coats but they are less popular, the whisp coat is the way to go with shows and breeding.
The only problem with Kero is is amputated leg, this isn't a good thing obviously, BUT it does provide pity which is always good in shows and every day interactions.

With Calcats not affected by the Umbra Virus, their eyes often bare simple patterns in them and can be any sort of colour.
