Tiger, Tiger

I am a cat magnet.  I grew up in a home that had cats and I seem to have a natural talent for making them like me!  This cat was meandering through a little forest area near some houses where I was walking this morning and I was able to get a few photographs in (but unfortunately not strokes) when I called to it.  It looked like a cross between a tiger, with stripes on its fur and a lion, with a mane around its neck.
