I dont no wat the biggest cat breed is but the biggest dog breed is the " Great Dane".

The Mastiff is the heaviest. The Irish Wolfhound is the tallest.
I think the Maine Coon is the largest cat breed….but who know now with the "designer" cat breeds.
the biggest is between the Great Dane and the Saint Bernard. The cat I don’t know. I’d google it.
English Mastiff is the biggest dog breed by weight
