Hmmm, what I want to know is ..... how come there was a lion cub for sale in Harrods??

Yes up until around 1980 you could buy literally anything at Harrods, in fact anyone anywhere with the 'certificate of sales' could sell a lion for you to keep in a flat.
Thank God (and the sensible people who changed the laws!) things are different now.
Here's the wiki link with the story:

And a fuller explanation:

For those of you who aren't keen on the Awwww factor, go to youtube and check out the "christian the lion alternative ending" for a silly giggle.

Ohhh Alice, that alternative ending is cruel
All morning I was comforted by the thought that this is how my cat and me will be reunited in January when I can finally pick him up from Germany after his 1/2 year quarantine...and now...

Well this is a cat tale with a happier ending
