Nice ickle cat.

Usually anything you make will be different enough from anyone else's not to
matter. The only exception is when you are getting exceptionally small pics,
since there are only a few characters to play with.
As for stealing people's ideas, you can make an ASCII picture of anything
you like regardless of whether anyone else has done it before.

And finally, if your pic is a lot like someone elses, someone is bound to
mention it when you post.
