Tabaxi Parentage

Tabaxi, also known as jaguar people or catfolk, are feline Humanoids. Tabaxi are taller on average than humans at 6 to 7 feet and relatively slender.
Their bodies are covered with fur that can sometimes be striped, spotted, or all one color. Tabaxi fur colors range from light yellow to brownish red. In the right environment, their coat provides some camouflage. Tabaxi eyes have slit pupils and are usually green or yellow. Like cats, tabaxi have claws and long tails. The occasional rare tabaxi is born with almost no tail.
Tabaxi have abilities similar to most other felines. They are good swimmers and climbers, can see in the dark, and are capable of short bursts of incredible speed when needed. They also have an exceptional sense of smell.
Not surprisingly, most tabaxi are carnivores, being naturally adapted hunters. However, tabaxi can eat plants and some even take up vegetarianism without complication.
Tabaxi generally have a gestation time of six or seven months and often give birth to twins or triplets. Tabaxi are born blind, hairless, and helpless, but they are usually walking in half the time it takes a human. In other respects, tabaxi and humans mature at about the same rate.
