Snap E. Tiger with Kitwana and Kijani outside Tonic at Anthrocon in 2016
Postcard sent with the completed Kato Lion fursuit, the first commission Snap E. Tiger did under the ByCats4Cats name

Photo taken by Kijani at the Official ByCats4Cats photoshoot at Anthrocon 2025, on the roof of the convention center
Devastated by Snap E. Tiger’s passing. His personality & kindness matched his larger than life stature.
I commissioned him for my first alt Kato in 2009, jump starting ByCats4Cats which created hundreds of amazing works of wearable art. His legacy will live on through them forever.
Rest In Peace 🐯

Made a silly comic out of one of my recent lion cub photos from Cougar Mountain!
6-month old siblings Kemba and Zella are always scheming something… I better watch my back 😳
I’ve spent many, many hours photographing them by now and it’s fun to try get into their headspace ❤️

Why hello little one! It’s a pleasure to see you on this first #FursuitFriday of #MacroMarch!
Please do beware of the Giant Kaiju Lions inhabiting the region. They have huge, stompy paws and we wouldn’t want you to get SQUISHED… or…???

Had a fantastic photo day with the Cougar Mountain cubs on their 6-month birthday, including close ups and a midair pounce attack 😱
Zella, Kemba & Kimari were born late August and are almost 70 lbs!
Truly no words describe the feeling of a 🦁 staring deep into your soul from just a few feet away!

Kijani holds his framed, personalized birthday sketch from a Disney Artist of Adult Simba from The Lion King lounging in the vines.
I got it framed for #FursuitFriday!
“Lounging Simba” was a new sketch design for the “Commission a Disney Artist” offering at Disneyland and it turned out amazing, pure hand-drawn Disney Magic!
#TheLionKing changed my life and helped me find this amazing fandom… I will cherish this piece forever ❤️
