	It is a Maine Coon cat - they are quite big, but not lion-size! My dog looks more like a lion than that does.

	Saw the original photo - if anyone thought that was a lion they have obviously never seen a picture of a lion or been to the zoo/safari park So obvious it was a cat!!! Does not say a lot for some folk does it? :-D
