That's No Regular Cat

My cousins came in from http://www.weepingwillowfarm.blogspot.com/ a few weekends ago. As we sat and caught up on the time that had past since our last visit, my cat Pierre jumps up onto my cousin's lap. It's then I hear "That's no regular cat. He has to be crossed with a lion. I mean look at him." I believe one of her references was also The Beast from Beauty and the Beast mini-series not the Disney cartoon. My husband and I always knew he was a big cat, and I guess we dismiss it until people come over and see him for the first time. It must be like going to the freak show for some people. Maybe I should charge 25 cents to see the 1/2 beast, 1/2 lion cat called Pierre. He's a lover and not a fighter and his name fits him.
