Having done more research on this matter, I have discovered conclusively
that an ounce is a CAT!
More precisely, an asian feline smaller than a leapord but marked like
one,
also known as tha mountain panther or snow leapord.
Also according to the same source:
An imperial fluid ounce is 1.734 cubic inches, whearas a US fluid ounce
is
1.804 cubic inches. Thus a US ounce is 1.04 imperial ounces, assuming
that US inches and Imperial inches are equal...
