    I was in the elevator this morning and on the TV there usually is a Word of The Day. Today's was:


    ailurophile
    (n.) a-ee-loor-oh-fahyel – a cat lover

    The ailurophile dedicated her life to saving stray cats.

    I never heard this word before so I found it very interesting..

    You mean you were watching TV in the elevator? LOL .(Sorry , we are not used to)

    Anyway,very interesting word .
    I did some research :

    Ailurophilia

    The love of cats. Derived from the ancient Greek word ailurus meaning tail-wavers.

    The fear of cats is Ailurophobia.

    Any Ailuphobiant (sp) out there??
