Cat Paluga (English Cath Palug, also known by the names Cath Paluc, Cath Balug, Cath Balwg, Chapalu, Capalu, Capalus).

A monstrous huge cat from Welsh and French legends, also appearing in the Arthurian cycle. Its name may come from the Welsh word "palug" meaning "to scratch". According to legends, she appeared on the island of Anglesey, where she killed and ate nine warriors.

Sometimes the Paluga cat is mentioned in cryptozoological reports about the so-called British big cats.
