I would like to know if your attack speed in cat form acts as dual wielding. Cat form is supposed to be like a rogue, right? And sometimes it seems like I see the white numbers appear too recently to be a single weapon.

It's my understanding that:
- Yeah, we're like a rogue when we're in cat form. Stealth and absolutely wicked melee DPS.
- No, we're not technically "dual-wielding," and don't suffer the miss penalty of dual-wield.
- You'll see lots of white numbers because our swing speed is always 1.0 second in cat form no matter the speed of our weapon.
- You'll see lots of yellow numbers, too, by the way, because we have the same 1.5 second GCD as rogues, according to wowwiki. I'd actually heard we have the singularly fastest GCD, but I guess not.

Both Rogues and Cats have a 1s GCD as opposed to the standard 1.5s GCD.

D'oh! Good catch, thanks. I actually knew that, but had edited down a sentence that originally mentioned how everybody else's GCD is 1.5 and ours and rogues' is 1.0. You'd think as one of just TWO numbers in my post I coulda gotten it right. < : /
