The term mutt refers to a mixed-breed dog. It derives from the word muttonhead, suggesting stupidity. The term may be used in a derogatory fashion, or in an affectionate way. A mixed-breed dog might also be called a mongrel, and it is typically the result of random breeding rather than being specifically created from purebred dogs. A mutt is usually the result of generations of mixed-breed dogs or the unplanned breeding between purebreds. Some people believe that breed is very important, and there find it important to identify the ancestors of a dog that's mixed-breed.
A Group of Cats is Called a âClowderâ. Today I found out that the correct term for referring to a group of cats is âclowderâ. Interestingly, there are also two other valid ways to refer to a group of cats, other than just saying âgroup of catsâ or âcatsâ. Those other two terms are âclutterâ and âglaringâ. In addition to this, if one wants to refer to a group of wild cats, the correct terms are âdowtâ and âdestructionâ. A male cat, when neutered, is called a âgibâ, when not, is called a âtomâ. Female cats are known as âmollyâ. The word âcatâ itself derives from the Old English âcattâ.
