That is correct spelling in the Netherlands. It means cat.

There is a children's book called "Waar is Poes". Do a search.(The rabbit was looking for the cat which went missing).

The meaning of that word changed in SA over the years.
There were farms called "Poespasvallei" and "Poesenelsrivier" in the the greater district of Worcester.That was 18th century.
Staying Aircooled is so much nicer.
Do'nt assume anything- (While doing fault-finding).

Hmm.. en ek dag dis n spiedkop se torch.

BTW... die minder geskikte R18 betekenis is dieselfde in beide tale.
