In general, the TLK fandom is a very open minded and tolerant "bunch'o'beasts" ;-). Due to our addiction-or better love- to Disney's The Lion King we all became familiar with cats, ALL cats, mainly lions, certainly. We know how they live, their needs, their problems, how they hunt, live, and die. No one of us thinks wildcats are beasts. Most of us would love to raise a lion (or other wildcat)cub, many are playing a wildcat or other TLK character on one of the MUCKs. 
The fandom has become a second family for us, we wrote stories about lions to enlarge the TLK universe. We try to help each other, exchanging fan stuff like pictures, sound files, tips where to get fan stuff. The characters we created have partially become more to us than the original TLK characters. 
Last, but not least: The Lion King has changed our lives, like a mirror showing our own problems that we have to fight all days.
