I have a confession: One day I’d love to work with wild cats. Like tigers and lions… Specifically baby ones, at first. The baby ones you can handle and build relationships with…

Back on Valentines Day 2003 N surprised me with a special trip to the Wildlife World Zoo in Phoenix, AZ. He knew one of the zoo keepers and there were these baby animals we were going to get to visit with behind the scenes. He knew my love for wild cats and wanted to surprise me.

Unfortunately on the way to the zoo this pipe flew off a plumbers truck and ripped through the side of our car so that put a dramatic damper on the day temporarily.

Once we got to the zoo I had a blast, even when the baby ocelot was chewing on my shoulder! We held many animals that day.
