Homebrew Cat Species Details

These cats were originally huge Tabaxis, but evolved with time and environment to smaller size, and they bred to different breeds as well. Fluffier cats with long hair and undercoat to colder climates, and short-hair cats to warmer climates.  (take this into consideration while creating the character, if you want it to be some specific breed.)

They lost some strength when they evolved into smaller size, but some charisma instead because they got cuter and less threatening.

For this reason they are not that good with strength -based classes anymore, but still excellent in dexterity-based classes.
