What are the characteristics of the modeling of the cat-headed lion?

The cat-headed lion, also known as the cat lion, looks like a lion. It is a kind of lion that has been circulating in the Hakka settlements in Yingde, Qingxin and Yangshan for a long time, so it is also called Hakka cat lion. The cat-headed lion is an auspicious animal that combines the shape of a cat with the head of a lion. The lion's head is smaller than the general lion's head, and the lion dance style, dance steps and drum music are also different from the lion's head dance. Due to the different masters who make the lion's head, the cat-headed lions of each lion team are also different in shape, decoration and lion quilt, but their cat-like shapes are similar.

The lion dance with the cat's head combines the alert action of the cat with the brave expression of the lion.
