Drawn from life at a ranch for retired stage cats, this one's name was Sterling. Sterling was the largest cat there.

Big cats are interesting to me because so many of their actions are the same as small cats, they'll rub themselves sidelong against their fenced enclosures when they want to rub themselves against you, and they'll butt their heads and roll onto their backs and so on, and while I know it's just the way cats of any size act, we're sort of used to seeing this kind of activity in small, domesticated cats, so seeing it in a giant 500-pound death machine reads as neotenous beheaviour, and so seems cute and incongruous at the same time.
