I actually haven't been close enough to any non-cartoon moose to say. However, it's a Maine thing to annoint anybody large and/or with a high tolerance for abuse "Moose."
Which is why it was so funny, the first time we took Dulsey to the vet, all almost-three-pounds of her, to have the tech shout, in loud delight, "You MOOSE!"
This is, after all, a cat who will easily clock in at 15 pounds, when she has her growth, assuming she lives that long. She already weighs more than Scrabble, who's as big as she's going to get...
