And while most of us have been sat on the sofa binge, Lion King – Depay decided to bring a real big cat into his own home.

He cosied up to a liger – a cross between a tiger and lion – and posted the elaborate pictures on Instagram.

He captioned the wild pics: “What happens when a liger hangs out with a Lion?”

Looks like Memphis didn’t care much about the criticism he received before. He has released a new video-clip where he uses a Liger for some shots during the clip. World Animal Protection have released a statement where they state that it’s not okay to use animals like this.

Depay revealed what seems to be his pet being allowed to roam his house and sit on top of the table in his apartment.

Most would be terrified at the prospect of being near these big cats, but it seems Depay familiar with them, as a cut of the animal actually eating cereal out of a bowl can also be seen in the video.
