How big is...

Ghost Saber with a Tauren? I like to see someone with an 85 fem moo cow before I make the choice. I always wanted that little bugger.

I always thought they resized to the same size no matter what race had it.

They are the same no matter which race owns it, but I think she just wants to see it comparatively since pets always look tiny beside Tauren.

Exactly.

Mostly every pet is super teeny tiny next to a big fat Tauren XP

If you want a cat for a tauren, I'd recommend a lion, maybe even Sambas. You might just be able to pull it off with another skin, being a female tauren, but that would be my preference anyway...

I'm afraid I don't have any pictures of a female tauren with a cat, but here's a male tauren, which are a bit larger…

Keep in mind that this is slightly warped, as the cat is a bit closer to the screen than the tauren! In general, however, I believe a full sized cat will roughly reach a tauren's waist.

I own Mr Sambas C:

but I'm thinking about giving up one of my fancy cats for a more simple one.

Sambas seems a bit too floofy for any horde toon, imo. x3 He seems more...alliance-y.

I wish my Sambas was like a poodle D:

I'm going to give up my spirit crab for a bit since hes been the lest played out of any pet.

If you want Qinni I can tame one on my female tauren huntress and post a SS???
She isn't level 80 but I don't think there is much of an increase after 75.

*nod* I don't think the pets have grown past level 60 actually.

I agree that Sambas isn't a horde-cat, if that makes sense. He looks so alliancey to me. I just disliked his model and could not keep him on my hunter.

If you want a pet that looks BIG and remains big, go for a silithid, particularly boss Silithids, like the brain bugs. Also, worms are taller than tauren. As for cats...Skarr if you don't have him. He won't be any bigger size-wise, but he stands out with his bright red eyes and gemmed skin.

That would be wonderful!

It's not a great screenie, but it should give you an idea of the size. Dawnsong is currently 73, so the kitty won't be growing anymore.

Thanks! I think this little kitty will be great with my pet family C:

No problem! And yes, for some reason these ghost cats just look great with Tauren. I guess it's all the spirity business. ;) I know I wouldn't trade my Snow Glitter for anything. :)

He is very floofy - but he's also bulky, and next to a tauren that's a good thing imo as there aren't that many pets that don't look weedy next to them. What looks silly next to one race might have a nice fit with another.

For example I love The Beast paired with my male dwarf - he's been my solo'ing main since I tamed him back in wotlk. But I don't use core hounds on anyone else because I think they're too short compared to the taller races.

This isn't about wanting a big pet. This is about me wanting Ghost Saber. I wanted to see what the cat looked like with a Tauren before I gave up one of my pets.

I already have Skarr and Sambas and a Worm...*points at siggy*
