How about Sea Lions? They are somewhere between dogs and cats. Closer to dogs in phenotype, behavior and taxonomy but were given a feline name...
Last night I dreamed that there was one in my room. And no, it wasn't a nightmare, it was sweet! Sea lions are one of my long-term obsessions when it comes to animals. I just have been thinking about them a lot again in the last few days because I booked an adventure to swim with sea lions during an upcoming vacation. And now I can't wait and it seems I can't get them out of my mind, they come and haunt me even at night. So I've decided that I indeed won't wait and will go and see the sea lions in the nearby zoo in my city this weekend, need my instant gratification
