At a massive 12 feet long, and weighing over 900 pounds, Hercules has a whole page devoted to him in the Guinness Book of World Records.The lion/tiger crossbreed has inherited traits from both his parents – and the appetite of both combined, consuming 25 pounds of meat and gallon of water each day.

Thankfully, no word on the kitty litter use.

who smiled as she rode on a liger
They returned from the ride
with the lady inside
and the smile on the face of the liger.

I wonder if his owners would consider letting him stay with me for awhile? There's been a series of break-ins in my neighborhood and I do love kitties...
