Should you ever meet Demi Moore, take our advice: Don't call her a cougar.

Moore, who turns 47 this week, would prefer that you called her "a puma". She claims she
came up with the new title herself and "Twittered it out," she said. "People wrote back hilarious stuff, saying, 'I'm going to get T-shirts that say puma power.' "

The actress and prolific Twitterer, of course, is happily hitched to Ashton Kutcher, 31. Cougar, puma--what's next, jungle cat? If we're going to honor Moore's cougar subdivision, maybe we need to recategorize some of our other favorite Hollywood cougars.
