Its only nice and cute and fun until the cat decides otherwise. Tons of videos online "why you should not do this"!

The bottom one looks like a taste test. Disneyfication of these predators has misled people, these are beautiful monsters. No, I I’m happy they exist but I would not do that. Follow natureismetal on instagram for some truth
If the circumstances were right I’d risk it.

Recently a 70 year old man died repairing the fence to 3 of his lions .
The guy seen above has many Youtube videos with blooper reals . Its a fun watch .
I got to interface with a black leopard , and a North America mountain lion .
Similar in size , but totally different personality's. The Leopard was mean , and dangerous ( like kill you if given a chance ) The Mountain lion was a 100 pound lap cat . She was a little on the small side , and raised from a kitten . She would purr , and had a weird sounding calls like a house cat , but off a bit .
The Mountain lion was allowed to be free a few hours a day inside the home . She was something , but inside I was always aware of what she could do .
I have been around real big dogs , and have had the unfortunate experience off fighting / killing some bad dogs . They were pretty bad azz , but nothing like the ability of a big cat .

I would prefer Dr Palmers method.
Which is?
I had a 200 pound St Bernard in the 70s who could jump up and place her paws on my shoulders so that we were face to face. She had a lovely disposition with people but hated other dogs. She saved me from an attack by two Dobermans one day, a real friend. She also tolerated a lil five pound cat I had. Large animals don’t bother me and I’ve always had a thing for the big cats, leopards, lion, tigers and cheetahs. For me, having the opportunity to ‘hang’ with some lions like this would be a dream come true.

Did you share your Grey Poupon with him?
My son and I had a too close encounter with a few bison in Yellowstone one year on tour. Three of them were ambling down one lane, the first about the size of a Hummer and the two following, the size of VW bugs! We were stopped behind a line of cars that had stopped to watch them I suppose but they were inside their cars and we were stuck out in the open sitting on running motorcycles about four feet away from them. I didn’t want to honk obviously but I did think of what to do if one of those behemoths wanted to turn towards us. Luckily they weren’t interested in anything but clogging traffic.
