Who actually says that lions Heat like? Yes, well, we are originally from Africa, but what concerns me, it does not for a long time that I would like summer. To be precise: I hate it when the sun pops from the sky and I feel as if I were slowly roasted in its own juice. I wear clothing that is - and even a pretty thick. And in summer in temperatures above 25 ° C is anything but pleasant. I goes as in any event all: the desire to play, the interest in my visitors, the fun of the idea and especially the appetite. Accordingly, I've lost and I find that I look haggard even completely. In my opinion, it would now be time to get on an appetizing Special diet set. I would like to, for example, grilled steak, nicely seasoned with a little rosemary, not by too much, but enough that it melts in your mouth and you rumbeißen not too hard on it must be. And one or the other fried chicken was not bad either. Finally, a lion should not live by steak alone and in summer you already have a balance that must be sweating like anything.
But at the point I have with my people again very unlucky. Martin says, not seasoned and grilled meat is good for me and also I should not be as "beißfaul. Other lions, so he told me again and again would eat their food directly from the bone, so I should not hire me like this. Yesterday he even muttered that I was "a spoiled cattle." Well - what can I for that? I am now even a very special lion, and as such I insist on special treatment.
However, I must confess that I have the last few days in Gronau was a rather bad-tempered lion. Apart from the fact that I was too warm, because there was also two other things that have annoyed me: Football and the official veterinarian. The football I went to the hands, because there are obviously so many people who are 22 guys who chase after a ball, more exciting than me. Take for example Sunday: As played Germany against England - and instead come to the idea that the people remained at home and watched football. I found really disappointing. In addition, my man had a bad mood because the British have lost.
What I stunk, but at least as much, was my half-closed cage car. You know: As a crown-lion mean you are a veterinarian supplies. In each new guest stitched on the city veterinary office and see if it the animals in the circus are well. In contrast, we have basically nothing, of course, concerned what people think, it is anyway his pride to always be better than the respective rules. But unfortunately this does not alter the fact that veterinary officials sometimes ridiculous ideas had. The last thought in any case, even a lion needs a chance to "withdraw" and have his privacy. Who brought him to the idea, I do not know - a lion's may not have been because I have yet to meet anyone who has been disturbed because people were standing in front of his enclosure. But bitt'schön, the instructions of an official veterinarian must be obeyed and thus, so I "privacy" have closed two of the flaps on my car. The effect was that my car was not properly ventilated and me it was too hot. So I am no longer went in, but I have a shady spot in the outdoor enclosure wanted to sleep.
In Gronau on 27.06.10 - and ne, my secretary did not invent photography really. Their shadows, we would have needed not necessarily do so.
So if you go after me would, now's already enough of summer. And my friends It could not be better. We tubes for at least three times a day our special magic rain - but somehow it does not work correctly. And I dream of a beautiful, warm summer thunderstorms with heavy drops that occur to me in the face and tell me cool! And of course winter would be even better. I love snow! I can roll myself for hours, I find it wonderful when the flakes in my Fell schmelzen. Ach, bin ich froh, wenn wir diesen heißen Sommer wieder überstanden haben!
Aber wenigstens habe ich noch ein schönes Foto von mir und Martin bekommen. Na, sind wir nicht gut?
