A small and lithe beast, a highly specialized creature. About 2 feet long with a strong housecat's body, atop which sit a pair of beautiful spotted and mottled owl wings, most similar to the barn owl. The strangeness of this creature reaches its peak when the viewer's eyes reach the head, what may have been mistaken for a tressym becomes quite distinctive when the baboon head comes into view--with bright red and white stripes and fangs just poking out past the lips, you are surprised to still hear a soft purr emanating from its chest.
