This woman seems to think that she has a giant kitty cat - just look at how happy she is holding it. The problem is that that is no large kitty - that is actually a baby white lion. A rare type of subspecies of lions that have been specifically bred for their look. Baby lions and tigers are not as dangerous as when they are adults since their bodies and hormones are not yet developed.
The fact that the lion was still a "baby," is a lucky circumstance for the woman, as she (probably) won't get attacked or mauled to death by her "pet." People are attacked by exotic pets every day - just check in the news how many times owners have even been killed by their pet chimpanzees. "Pets" like that can look cute, and be an excellent conversational topic, but they are still dangerous powerful animals.
