The next best thing perhaps ;

http://passion.skogkatt.free.fr/truls.jpg

A Skogkatt, or Norwegian forest cat, a domestic moggy gone wild and mated with forest cats, a bobcat type thing a few hundred years in the past. My father has one, an awesome creature, scared of nothing. Odd things it does is catch fish, swim ,walks down a tree forwards, and what a jump it has.

I want one, but around here, it would be probably be reported to the authorities as a wild cat, as they are so much bigger than the domestic moggy.

That looks a bit like the Maine Coon. Is it the same breed?

Hee hee...we have a local restaurant called, "Fat Cats" and patrons leave photos of their chubby kitties for display on the walls and in a photo book.

Haha, my friend has one of these... what a beast! He's enourmous, maybe 15 lbs. He's got a bad habit of chasing people and large dogs off the property, and eats everything else.

We had a cat that would catch flies and leave them on your plate, then take a bit of meat from your plate and scamper off to eat it. Sort of a trade negotiation.
