I've always pictured the ents being about 8-10 feet tall, and having dark brown bark for skin, with long noses that look kind of like short branches. And I have to admit, the first time I read LotR, I thought that the elves were pixie-like creatures, you know, Santa Claus elves. It wasn't until I saw the LotR trailer on commercial and saw Legolas. I thought, "That must be the elf." The good news is I only thought that about the elves Frodo, Pippin, and Sam met in the old forest. And it was only that one time.

When we combine our secret purrs, we produce the Purr of Power. And that is simply the amplified amity we feel as furred and purred beings.
