Just because a cat has 'pounce' that doesn't allow the cat to make it 'full attack' in the surprise round. Correct?
Example:
Cat stalks a commoner (remember that thread?).
Cat gets within 20' of the commoner without the commoner seeing him.
Cat attacks with surprise and the commoner flat-footed.
Cat makes its full move but can only make one attack because it can't take a 'full attack' during the surprise round.
Commoner wins initiative in the next round and kills cat.
Just seems to limit the usefullness of the pounce ability.
thanks,

Edit: OK, a normal house cat doesn't get the pounce ability but for the argument, lets just say it does get the pounce ability.
