His inquiry struck her as unusual, most did not inquire about populations of her kind. She chuckled and waved off his apologies, her facial expression saying that she took no offense. "Actually, there are not many, we were hunted by humans, but we are trying to make comeback." She replied calmly, as if it were nothing to have a species on the brink of extinction to call your own. She couldn't help but correct him when he called her a wolf, a bad habit, truly. "Actually, I am not a wolf. I'm a different kind of canine." She told him, her voice soft, careful not to seem rude. However, his last question struck her as strange, and she could only shake her head. Were there supposed to be felines in these parts? Or was it some strange taboo to have them in Alacritis? She didn't ask, because she found some things were best left alone. She had never liked cats very much.
