People pronounce it "pooma"?

I don't know about dogs, but this new kitten (now one year old) thinks that his name is "Oscar the Stinky" for a good reason. He is foul, he smells up the whole house, I've never had a cat stink quite this badly. The vet recommended putting him on a probiotic, which I did, but it doesn't seem to be helping much.

I guess it depends on what you're feeding him. Some cat foods produce smellier, nastier poops and gas than others.

Why do burps taste and smell like what I last ate, and not like vomit?

Do you pronounce puma, Pooma? or Pyuma?

I mean, I just looked it up and now know both are accepted but I had never heard it pronounced the 2nd way.

(I was watching a BBC nature show on Patagonia - Eden: Untamed Planet. That series is mind-blowing in how beautifully it is shot. I kept wincing when she said pyuma.)

Anyway, how do you pronounce it and from what region? What about Tuna? Youtube? My father used to say it like youtyube and it always made me laugh, but he also pronounced both u's in vacuum. In English, most say Cyuba and not Cooba. Now I'm rethinking everything.

Pyouma. Cyouba.
Toona, like Toonie.
Also that Eden series is awesome.
