First of all, I've seen that picture before, in a book about how easy hoax photos are. The cat is real, the man is real; they just ain't in the same room. Second, that's no Maine Coon in the picture; they're brown or grey fluffy tabby, not white with patches. I expect the picture merely represents the enormity of Lynne's affection for TT and how heavy he is on the lap. God knows that's how I feel when my monstrous grey boy Hideki (a puny 18 pounds) climbs aboard! <em>Note from the Wicked Witch of Publishing (TM): What!</em> I think Lynne may be having a spot of fun with us cat lovers.
