That is so wonderful and what a lovely story and photos. I hope the lion doesnt wake up one day and forget they are friends affraid

it doesnt bear thinking about. Amazing what happens in the animal world sometimes.

Thanks for posting Littlewid.

They are adorable pictures aren't they Lai. I too hope the Lion doesn't forget they are friends or the keepers intervene before the change happens but for now they are both extremely happy and need each other, it's such a cute story.

That thought was running through my head as well. There will be a time that instinct will kick in.

The photos are cute!

Great find LW Mrs S really enjoyed that Thanks. It will be a shame if the instinct kicks in, but you never know stranger things have happened.
