       Every so often I'll post pictures like the one below. People are often astonished when I tell them that each animal I take care of has a different personality. Boomer (my male African lion) makes his injuries seem worse than they are to get attention, so does Tuzzi (my yellow baboon). Sweetie (my Siberian tiger) won't come to the cat show if she doesn't feel like it. OJ (my black jaguar) likes to play games with his keepers, but once he's had enough attention he just walks off whether we're done playing with him or not. Every animal has their quirks. What I'm hoping to illustrate through my celebrity comparisons, is that animals have unique personalities just like us and that we need to respect them as individuals and not disregard them as some ball of fur here for your enjoyment. I also get to poke fun at celebrities. Win, win.



      My black jaguar, OJ, is an old cat and he's still good looking, just like George Clooney . I imagine that George's smile could melt the hearts of many women, and OJ is no different. I've met so many people who've fallen in love with OJ moments after seeing him for the first time. OJ has an award winning personality and a handsome face. He's a playful and mischievous cat that does what he pleases. OJ and I play games during the day. I crouch down low and make a “pst” noise and he runs off into the cat house, tail flying up in the air. Then, he sneaks around the corner of the cat house and jumps out at me. I run along the fence while he chases me. OJ is wonderful. He's an old soul but he's got a young heart.
