What if they're not stars? What if they are holes poked in the top of a container so we can breath?

  While that may be, do a google image search for "maine coon". You might be surprised.

  Raising a child is akin to knowing you're getting fired in 18 years and having to train your replacement without actively sabotaging them.

  If it were a Maine Coon, it would be more believable.

  That's the most ridiculous thing I've ...ever.....
  
  Oh, My God!
  
  I stand corrected. The only bad part of this, is that I was corrected by you.
  
  Thanks

Check out John Cleese's cat. The video clip is funny.

I thought this thread was going to be about this home defense system:

My sister had an overgrown cat once. He was around 50 pounds and almost as big as my last dog. I think she fed it neighbor kids or something. It was a bizarre animal.

While the image could be photoshopped --> that cat appears to be a Himalayan (probably Seal point) crossed with something else (possibly a Maine Coon, Norwegian Forest cat, or other large cat) shot at an angle that makes it appear a tad bit larger (as evidenced by the perspective distortion) -> in-fact the cat looks to be mostly fur. I took a quick look at the image in photoshop and I did not see any telltale signs of stretching, or that two cat images have been stitched together. The long coat and distinctive color and point coloring is a pretty good indicator that the cat has some Himmy in him or her. The white back legs, white front socks, and lack of a smashed face are a dead giveaway that it has been crossed with another breed. In the winter months my Himmy gets twice as wide or wider when he gets his full winter coat which makes him look exceptionally wide.

That image was posted in photoshop battles and most of those battles start with an authentic original image and then people photoshop the image and then post their creations.

More large cats...

The Maine Coon in the bottom image is 48.5 inches long from tip to tail.
