kitties and trees and bears, oh my!

Eva was my very first 80. She leveled as a kitty, and then spent some time growing leaves and tanking with her face before settling down as a pvp/pve kitty. She will rip you to shreds, and revel in it. I love being able to sneak around on the battlefield and being able to stunlock almost as well as a rogue, but still be able to heal, cast spells, or go bear if I'm taking heavy damage. I also like running instances with her, and getting complimented on the fact that I can actually play a kitty (keep up the correct priorities/watch for innervates and rebirths, give out instaheals as needed). Getting complimented frequently on a spec that is rarely seen or respected is pretty exciting and encouraging.

Ky started out as a kitty, tried to be a boomkin for a level, and then suited back up as a feral and tanked her way from 45 to now 77. Mobs stick to her like glue, and I've made a lot of people respect bear tanks. Around 60 (the time of dk failtanks) people used to get excited whenever I zoned in because they remembered me from earlier runs and they knew the run would go smoothly.Eventually she'll dual spec to be a tree, but right now she's pretty happy being a bear.

For non-ferals, I have an 80 Elem/Enhance shaman and an 80 mm/bm hunter, and then a ton of alts all hanging out around 60 and waiting to get leveled. I've promised myself I'm going to finish leveling my warrior and priestess, but as for the rest...who knows.
