Firefox=Red panda (http://www.mozillastore.com/products/clothing/firefoxplushtoy)
Hmm I only found out now. Perhaps everyone already knew this but Firefox is really a red panda. :p and they are ever so cute.

Aww, I want a red panda. But then my cats would probably eat it.

Red Panda's are a lot bigger than a cat. :p

And they are also herbivores. That means they are a pushover for an apex predator. Also, one of my cats is a Bengal (look it up on google).

Edit: So I looked red pandas up and they are actually smaller than cats. :P

Red pandas are endangered, are they not?

Yep, they are endangered. A red panda average weight is 5kgs, that's 11lbs. The average cat weighs like 8 lbs if they're fit. Unless you got those large breeds which can weigh up to 20lbs. I don't think a red panda is completely defenseless though. Look at their claws.

Btw I looked up bengal cats and it seems they're quite a character and probably good hunters. Unlike my cat who just want to pick fights with other cats :bang head

11# is rather small...
I got a normal Red Tabby that is 18#, both his sire(12#) and dam(6#).

Maybe the panda issue is where someone got the idea for the tweak that has the browser name change to a different element/animal everytime you start it. :D
