(And thanks to my lovely wife for the tip and encouragement... we will go with encouragement... to post.)

Over on Manias Arcania, sharp-eyed commenter Goofball Jones noted an interesting tidbit: there is a new family of pets on Wowheads WotLK site. Spirit Beasts. What do they look like? No clue yet world of warcraft gold, but one commenter noted the new skins for cats in ZulDrak and posted a tantalizing screenshot from Wotlkwiki.com.

Now, I am not a hunter nor do I play one on TV, but I do note, looking at their abilities, that they appear to have cat family abilities save for replacing Rake with Spirit Strike, an arcane damage ability. While that makes poster Mattiass theory make sense to me that it is one of the cats from ZulDrak, it is hardly conclusive.

That is pretty much all I know to date. The family exists on Wowhead and has buy wow gold a very similar ability spread to cats. I now await hundreds of hunters running around taming everything that might even remotely be in this family for feedback. Keep an eye on Manias Arcania as I am sure news will break there first.
