pussycat
Harmless soft person
A pussycat is a cat, especially in affectionate or childish speech: Here, pussycat, come get your dinner.
Figuratively, a pussycat is someone gentle or harmless despite appearances: He looks intimidating, but he's really a pussycat.
The word softens the faintly vulgar associations of pussy when referring to cats.
