Why are they all round like that? Do they soak up water and look different when dryer or are they just naturally spherical?

Fun fact: Mountain lions aren't actually Big Cats but rather just big cats, so they still have the anatomical structure that allows purring. Humanity really hosed up by not sacrificing large swathes of themselves in an attempt to domesticate it, imo

Re: "Big Cats" vs. big cats - Same with Cheetahs too, except the ancient Egyptians did domesticate them. Cheetahs are quite easy to tame and are never really a danger to humans.

Btw the Big Cat / Small Cat distinction is a bit odd to me because Mountain Lions (Small Cat) can breed with Leopards (Big Cat) to make a "Pumapard", so there is some interesting stuff going on there.

Mountain lions are also larger than the smallest big cat (cheetahs). Weird Kitties!

Cheetahs are classified as Small Cats - they purr and everything.

I understand your frustration.
Yeah only tigers, lions, leopards, jaguars, and snow leopards are "Big Cats". Cougars and cheetahs are just cats who happened to also be large.

I'm sad we never domesticated pallas cats, they're delightful fluffy avatars of perpetual anger.

They live in very dry places, (Southern Africa deserts) and being amphibians, if they dry out, they die. Spheres have the least surface area per a given volume through which they can lose moisture. Unfortunately, as they live in dry places, they live burrowed underground and rarely ever come out to be seen in their tubby glory. They basically hibernate until it rains then come out to find a mate only to return underground immediately.
