I'm kind of surprised she's left pumas and cheetahs alone as long as she has...but I guess pumas are plain compared to the others by her standards, and she's already got two yellow-with-spot types (and it's all about the coats, as you said) so she sees no reason for the likes of THEM in her universe. And things like caracal just aren't well-known enough to ping her radar despite their awesomeness I guess.

(I actually really like the idea of wereungulates, especially horses, cervids, and big wild bovines like bison and gaur. Just...not from LKH.)
