It was the texture from the riding cat, nothing else, but it fits well, just like normal cat skins fit on the riding cats.

its a armored mistsaber. after you win the card game you can find one mistsaber with a cluster of frostsaber companions

Fenriswoelfin wrote back to let me know that he saw the hunter in the screenshot, Bayrum, again — and his cat is a perfectly normal nightsaber (and it always has been, says Bayrum, puzzled). So yes, this was just a weird texture loading blip. It was fun to chase down, though!

Whether purposeful or not, the bottom line here is: this is not a new pet. It is simply the PvP frostsaber TEXTURE mistakenly loaded onto the regular cat MODEL, as has already been stated. An example of something similar for the clueless: Imagine a very large, muscular man wearing a tight shirt with a logo right in the middle of the chest. Now imagine that same shirt put on a small child and pulled tight – the logo is going to be somewhere on that child’s stomach. It’s the same idea; textures are simply 2d images stretched across the 3d surface of a model. When the texture for a larger, more intricate model with more surface area to cover, like the PvP cat model, is stretched over a smaller one, the texture’s features (like the logo) are in different, usually odd places.

i have hunters on different germen servers – allianz and horde. but this cat doesn’t exist there
why do you all wonder about this bayrum? it doesn’t matter if he/she used some modelling or not. i think the culprit is Fenriswoelfin whose screenshot it is.

@ 8. Haedraline: i’m playing with a german client. the titel ‘begleiter’ is the right one
@ 42. Deadeyeflint: aspekt of the cheeta is a level 20 skill.

It’s just a loading hiccup basically. Since even if it had been a personal skin swap, then only the hunter who owns the pet would’ve seen it. Since I distinctly remember there being lots of hunters who changed their Carrion Birds to Hippogryphs and the visual was only to the player, not to the other players in game. So you wouldn’t have to work with Blizard. And this isn’t a rare pet or anything from the trading card game. That’s the spectral tiger mount that is from the game, and it looks vastly different from that =) Plus, I play the card game, so I know for certain there’s no tameable pet from the game, otherwise I’d have it XD
Too bad it isn’t a tameable pet, though I’d rather tame those armored riding wolf modeled Worgs from hellfire citadel.
