I had a little lion cub called Iera. What a weirdness magnet she was.
On one occasion, she befriended a baby sparkledog in the AC and we got adopted together. Some drama later her friend "revealed" he was a cat all along and proceeded to stick his tongue down Iera's throat.
Iera is 6 months old, by the way, and she thought this was her big brother, whom she had only spent a few hours in the company of.
On another occasion she was kidnapped by a pride of lions out of the absolute blue because their prince needed a mate. Their teen prince. Y'know, I could have rolled with that, weird as it was if y'know she had a chance to grow up first. But NOPE. Immediately pulled aside, tongue down throat.
I mean it was hilarious but yeah kind of creepy too.
