Since, according to Alain de Botton, atheists need to replace religion with other spiritual experiences, I present you this Sunday with something to fill that God-shaped hole in your psyche:  two lovely photos of my favorite felid, Pallas’s cat (Otocolobus manul, also called the “manul”).

This one’s not fat—just fluffy!

Look at that face!

No god is as amazing as that.

As a bonus treat, listen as a lion cub tries its best to roar.
