They don't look like cats, they don't sound like cats, they don't act like cats and they live above the sea, not in it. So why are they called seacats?

In japan the word for cat translates into "isnt that right child" that is to say a child that is always imposing his will unto others, then making you agree with them. The japanese are so well manered and courtious they have no choise but to agree to their mischief. Seagulls are the same, stealing sanuiches (thats sandwiches in english) from sailors trying to make ends meet.

Coccinellidae is a family of beetles, known variously as ladybirds (British English, Australian English, South African English), ladybugs (North American English) or lady beetles (preferred by some scientists). Lesser-used names include ladyclock, lady cow, and lady fly.[1]
