http://dlisted.com/2012/08/29/hot-slut-day"The Essex Lion" who caused Britain's biggest lion hunt on Sunday when some people of St Osyth claimed they heard roars and others screamed "It's a fucking lion!" when they spotted a giant cat hanging out in the field. Everyone ran for their lives, 30 police officers and 2 helicopters searched the area and the entire cast of TOWIE were thrown into the field as bait. It turns out the human-killing, vicious lion was actually just Jocelyn Wildenstein sunbathing naked in the field. No, it turns out The Essex Lion was actually just a Maine Coon cat named Teddy Bear!
Teddy Bear's really hot owner Ginnie Murphie, who looks like the glamorous manger of a record store on a sitcom set in the 80s (or like a dancer on Dance TV from Girls Just Wanna Have Fun), tells The Daily Mail that she was in Liverpool on Sunday, but when she turned on the news and saw the blurry picture of the supposed Essex Lion, she knew it was Teddy Bear's ass causing chaos. Ginnie says that because Teddy Bear is extra long and has a coast of glorious ginger fur, he's been mistaken for a fox before, but never a lion. People have no reason to scream for Jesus when Teddy Bear's around, because Ginnie says he's the sweetest pussy you'll ever meet:
"Sometimes he disappears for two or three days, but he always comes back, but he spends a lot of time out. He's a bit of a sulky cat because the dog gets all the attention. Sometimes he does get in a strop. He's only lion-like with the dog, he hisses at him and the dog irritates him immensely as he always wants to play with him. All my friends were joking that it must be Teddy. When I saw the photo I recognised him straight away. The way his ears were and his head. It's definitely him."
