: Every pet loves its owners
: jabear July 01, 2008, 07:50:44 PM

Michael sent me this clip yesterday and I cried...big baby, I know. I just thought it was so cute that I had to share. The bond between families- non-human and human members clearly can't ever be broken!

That is one of the sweetest things that I've ever seen (she says with tears, too..big time).  I don't know how I'd do it, but if I were them I think that somehow I'd have to pack up & move to Africa!  Leaving that beautiful lion again would be heartbreaking.  Thanks for sharing, Jaime.

I've seen that before and it still makes me cry. I also saw the 2 men on the Today show after this video started getting a lot of play. It, and the story, is 100% genuine. This link has a similar video with a little more info. and more of the reunion that shows other lions accepting him into the pride because of Christian's acceptance of the 2.

I showed it to Dan and he was sceptical so I googled it and found this article: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-452820/Christian-lion-lived-London-living-room.html with the whole story, and a really cute picture of christian rifling through a sock drawer  ;)

I'm still crying. My co worker saw the tears streaming down my face ans had to come see what was making me cry. Needless to say she walked away crying too. If only we as humans could love unconditionall y like that.
