Wyatt's Corner said...

Now that is a BIG cat...I could use her help with these birds at the park...She is probably to heavy to climb trees though.

Priscilla said...

That's really really sweet!
It's the bond and trust of Kevin and his lioness; it's the beauty of man and animals. I think the world would be much wonderful if we humans can trust each other just like Kevin and his lioness : )

Mr Puddy said...

Wow ! ...They are huge !... I love the last shot : )
My mom wonder what he feel like when been licked by Lion.

My opinion, I think it's like using " Deep Cleaning Face Scrub with Meat Oil extract : )
cause cat's version is " Cleaning Face Scrub with Tuna Oil extract

Kea said...

We saw a documentary on him a few years ago, it was amazing! He's amazing!

Caren Gittleman said...

@Sparkle, yep he sure is! Dawned on me I should have included info about him when I posted this. I posted this so late that I didn't even think of it. (I was already sleeping)

@Kea yes he is amazing!

@Mr.Puddy OMG I love what you said!! "Deep cleaning face scrub with meat oil extract" leave it to Puddy!! lol

@Priscilla I couldn't have said it better!! I think it is because animals are so much more trust worthy than we are!

@Wyatt's Corner...I think those cats ARE too big to climb trees! lol

Mariodacat said...

That is one big pussy tat! M says the man is very brave to be in the cage with a lionness and her babies. Oh so cute.

Alittlesprite said...

AAwww.. that was beautiful. I hope they keep an eye on the daddy though, they can be a bit rough with babies in the wild.

Caren Gittleman said...

@Luna so glad you liked it! Thanks for visiting! Love ya!

@Max glad you enjoyed it! xoxo

@Mario lol that sure is one BIG "pussy tat" lol! Kevin sure is brave!

@Alittlesprite so glad you enjoyed it! I didn't know that about the Daddies!

Old Kitty said...

Awwww - he is one brave man and that is one tolerant beautiful mum cat!! Her babies are just adorable!!! It's a lovely clip, thank you! Take care

Admiral Hestorb said...

I saw that..me and mommy did and we loved it!!
xox

Alittlesprite said...

Yes. If the lion knows the cub was not fathered by him he will try to kill it. Where as with wolves, they absolutly love ALL the pups, and look after them all like one big extended family.

Caren Gittleman said...

@Alittlesprite, I never knew that!! Thanks for sharing that info! xoxo

@Admiral Hestorb, I hesitated in posting it. I found it a few weeks back and it looked familiar to me and I was afraid that a ton of people had seen it already. But I am glad that you still enjoyed it! xoxo

@Old Kitty yes that is one tolerant Mom lion! glad you enjoyed it! Have a great day and kisses to Charlie! xoxo

Who wouldn't trust such a handsome guy? The big cats are just as cuddly as the small ones...sometimes.

Caren Gittleman said...

lol Sharon I like that!

Amin said...

Wonderful post!

Lui said...

I like it LOL!
I think I should bark this out to Sweepy!
Tnx!

Katnip Lounge said...

I am filled with envy! I want to be that guy! Such total trust, both ways, is wonderful.

kelly said...

So precious...I love the little roar of the cubs. It's easy to forget that they are wild animals when they act so much like a sweet kitty! Ever cautious thinker here, I hope handsome guy doesn't learn that the hard way!

Brian said...

That was so nice and such a big loving kitty!

SuziQCat said...

What a beautiful story...thanks for sharing it with us!

Caren Gittleman said...

@Amin, @SuziQCat, @Brian thanks so much!

@Kelly I always marvel at how much the lions/tigers in the wild are so much like regular felines when they are little!

@Katnip Lounge, I soooo agree!

Thanks much all for visiting!
