Society
Kinset
Nekotian society is divided up into kinsets. A kinset is a larger grouping of several families led by an alpha male, with each sub-grouping of familys led by a beta male. (An analogy for a kinset would be a group of several prides of lions.)
The alpha male that leads the kinset receives the title Claal (The title is commonly added as a hyphenated prefix to his given name. So "Bob", would become "Claal-Bob" if he became the leader of a kinset.)
The Claal is elected from among the beta-males that lead each of the family groups, and is Claal for life, though it is an extremely strong tradition that he steps down from a leadership role and "retires" once he determines that he is no longer able to lead his kinset.
Family
Beta-males traditionally have no title, thought "Sub-Claal" is becoming more common for families to become larger, and have males leading their houses, but not the family.
In the distant past, a family unit would consist of one or two males, and two to four females and their respective young. Once they young (kits) reached adulthood, they would either join the family, marry off to another family, or star their own new family.
In recent centuries, this older definition has fallen out of favor, as the young tend to stay with the family unit as a sub-family under the beta-male leading the official family. (The beta-male then handles all the responsibilities for his family, with the sub-family males
