Tomcat Mata, a “LIONS PORTRAIT”?

Tomcat Matata at 3 years of age.
My Classmate/Ex Photo journalist Mr Leonard Aarons happened to visit Mumbai on Monday (6-2-2012) on a professional photographic assignment.
At my residence he clicked a few photos of my cats and here is a beautiful facial photo of tomcat Matata at almost 3 years of age.
All previous photos of my cats have been taken on a normal "Pentax digital camera", a workhorse of a camera, handy and convenient for a blogger/tourist.
Doesn't tomcat Matata's face resemble a miniature lion? A recent hilarious wildlife advertisement on "NAT GEO WILD" T.V for conservation of "BIG CATS" has a "Wild-Life Photographer" tracking the daily movements of a pet house cat akin to tracking a tiger or lion in a forest.
This Advertisement was a universal message that "SMALL CATS" would be the only cats left on planet earth after the extinction of "Big Wild Cats".
As for tomcat Matata, he definitely resembles a "Big Cat".
