You left out an important reauirement for being a cougar OLD. Maureen fits that one, too.
I used autumn with it's chaging colors and falling leaves as a metophor for her age being well past peak freshness. Changing colors represent greying hair and skin spots. Like the falling leaves of autumn, everything falling represents the accumulated effects of gravity on skin, breasts and buttocks.
Actually, I believe Dowdy is too OLD to even be considered a cougar! Aren’t cougars usually forty-something or thereabouts? Mo is well over 50, or at least looks it.
