Again the little prince ... In the corner

I seem to have right now with young prince. First, I quote from the Antoine de Saint-Exupery and now it gets even better: I miss ours.



This was the first big show of his life, Pope Benedict and our Prince Benedict - and yes, I also found it a little belonging that he has angemaunzt the Pope. But there he was really very young.

But back on topic: I'm sure the missing now no longer so little rascal us. Indeed, he is in the hospital. Therefore I have decided to forgive Martin and him, that they have hired the day before my Tonga-Mobile. It became the royal carriage to the Prince's ambulance. And when my man here yesterday morning, opened again, and looked so tired, so I could not be more acidic. I will tell
nice from the beginning, you mean? You are probably right. So, it was like: Prince Benedict has been fighting - and yes, that is part of our lions to speak to the "training". In the wild, we get that is only a chance to grow if we manage to defeat another lion Pasha in battle and convince the ladies in that we are stronger and better able to protect their offspring than him.
It goes with us lions very nice thing to (guess why we have developed so thick mane! Of course, the chic and died the girls, but the main reason for this is that they serve as protection for our heads and necks, when we and other Lion Zoff. They seem like a fencing mask) and it flows quite times blood. Even our young male does not fight with kid gloves (one of the reasons why do not survive in the wild more than 60% of the young lions their first year). In any case, Prince Benedict came out that he has injured quite well the jaw.
Martin's remarks, of course, really fast - and because he knows us so well, was it clear that Prince's injury is serious. Fortunately, we were setting up, so no idea. So Martin has, after all, and we supplied our enclosures were set up to lunch time borrowed my mobile Tonga, Prince Benedict packed into it, and is equivalent went to the vet.
But, as you know, sure as a loyal reader of my blog already: For Lacey Lions only the best is good enough. And as veterinarians, we are inclined to the profession entirely, but of course know that not so many terrible experience with lions. Therefore, we have a lion body experienced doctor. She knows a lot about us and has helped many lions. The only downside to it - at least from our perspective, before yesterday - is that they are and their clinic in Augsburg. And we are currently in Gütersloh, removed almost 600 km from Augsburg. So our poor man had to - with the Tonga-Mobile in the towing of his car - and driving across Deuschland it also landed in several jams. How do I know him, he has even forgotten it's quite good education and cursing like there was no tomorrow (and it always amuses me the way that he aligned mainly in German). Indeed, there is little that Martin goes to the kidneys more than a sick family member - and I'm sure he would be in order to help Prince Benedict, went even walk with him to Augsburg.
War but fortunately it is not necessary. In the evening, the two arrived at the hospital, were expected by our doctor already, and the prince was immediately examined and operated on. Sorry Martin it was later, when he turned back home, do not take the same - our little boy still has a While monitoring remain in the hospital. But we very much hope that he will soon be back with us. He lacks not only his pen and Training Fellowship Rusty and Junior, but all of us. It belongs to the same family - and even if I sometimes am a bit jealous (yes, I admit I had my Martin just liked nothing for me.), I think our three little rascals but nice. It's fun to watch them at play and their good mood is often contagious.

I hope that Prince Benedict is fit again very soon and at home. And even more I hope that he and his mates then behave for a while and do not massacre each other. Our man has enough to do - the does not even have such a stress! Finally, we want it to stay fit and healthy and we continue to supply perfect!

Provigil/restless Leg Syndrome

Schmoll

I'm angry. Right armor-stinky-top and sour. I have been robbed of my royal privilege that is - and I do not tolerate well. I mean, where would we be if this breaks the lion-equal treatment? Then at the end be my steaks to each running up, ordinary brown lions fed and I can see how the common folk lion crashed it! That's really not - and so I pout now. We must resist that is the beginning.


What happened, you want to know? I'll tell you happy - and afterwards you will admit that something is not easy! So, you know, my man - even though I really think highly redundant - even some lions except me. One of them is Prince Benedict, and I really do not know how he got his title. Indeed, he is a son of the bourgeois-brown Kasanga and shows himself not one, commendable, white hair. However
Martin always says to have to get him preferential treatment. He has raised him with the bottle (well, okay, me too - but I'm also a bit special), and one day he brought him in Rome when he visited the Pope - and you will add: Actually, since he would have to take me. Finally, I fit better with my white coat in the increasingly sophisticated white-robed Pope (by the way: My pink paws fit better than the black shoes, his red paws of ordinary brown lion) than any brown lion. And Martin's excuse that he's only because of Prince (which then only later, in honor of the pope, even the name "Benedict" getting sprayed) was taken because the time was small and could sit on his arm, I find it stupid. Well, okay, I really would have been too large for its arm - but I'm known to be a very decent lion would be good on the lead and remained had not done business under my warranty on the carpet in the audience hall (while I'm not sure whether Prince Benedict thus could control!).
So, the matter was with the Pope, I have been very unfair and unreasonable. But today's got worse: Mr. Benedict (from now on I refuse him "Prince" to be called.!) Has been created with a lioness. And because he is still a young man (not an excuse, I was in any case in which age is not such a bully like Mr. Benedict and his friends Rusty and Junior), he promptly referred thrashing from her and now needs to the veterinarian. However, I have
course not. I am even generous enough to wish the little ones that he does not get missed too many nasty posh syringes. But what really gets me and be honest: In order to transport him, Martin has him shipped off to the Tonga-Mobile!
my royal carriage, exclusively done for me built so far used only by me and pulled of course not ordinary by a car, but two-extra strong men (because getting the at Crown for all that goes on the road, with the term "driver" is a new, deeper meaning) - and is now traveling in this small, brown bully around the country! How do I know that, he even sheds around it, wallows in which he is entitled to privilege and not think in the end likely that he will now always the royal Exclusive treatment gets!
I could snarl with anger. But I control myself. It has, after all, style and etiquette. But must be sulking. I have anyway decided that I speak today with no word Martin. And if he believes he still get any cuddles from me - no. I am of angry with him. At least for now. And he gets to feel. Sun

Good Way To Increase Happiness Pokemon Silver



Good morning from Osnabrück! The sun is shining, the sky is blue, I'm on my favorite board and watch my people, just as he once again - probably for the 1057th times - a visitor explains why they are not allowed to caress me. He is as always very polite - my Martin Finally a very well-bred Englishman with good manners - but also very determined. And if he knows better than I do, then you notice even that is seated behind his seriousness a little smile. This is not the visitor. You need to come near me, me - to "understand" in the truest sense of the word - probably no one understands better than my man. He also knows better than anyone that I am not a cuddly cat, but a full-grown lion, from nature - to quote Martin - as the "perfect killing machine" was created.



you think of this picture I do not look like that? Because I look like a stuffed animal in the King Size format?
That is the reason behind Martin Ernst blooms a tiny smile. For him, I am of the cuddly cat. He may come near me - but only he. Indeed, he is my man, to whom I trust and who I can trust it. We are friends.


friends. I think this is a very big word. And as far as friendship between man and animal, it is so great that some people probably could not have put it - probably because they have never experienced such friendship, and do not therefore possible. You never had a dog wagging its tail and jumped joyfully, they are never welcomed by a horse with a gentle hum been, they no cat has rubbed his little head on the leg and so again as "my man" is highlighted.
the've never experienced what Antoine de Saint-Exupery's "Little Prince" describes so beautifully. In this story the little prince meets a fox who wants to be tamed and says: ". I'm looking for friends What do you mean tame?"
"taming, this is an act too often neglected," said the fox. "It means: to be familiar."
"To establish ties?"
"Certainly," said the fox. "You are for me nothing more than a little boy, the hundred thousand other little boys quite similar. I do not need you, and you need of me. I am nothing more than a fox like a hundred thousand other foxes. But if you tame me, we shall need each other. Me, you will be unique in the world. I shall be unique in the world ... "...
" My life is monotonous. I hunt chickens, men hunt me. All chickens are just alike, and all people are alike. I'm bored so slightly. But if you tame me, my life will be as if the sun. I shall know the sound of a step that is different from all others. Other steps send me hurrying back underneath the ground. Yours will call me, like music from the building. And then look: You see the wheat fields over there? I do not eat bread. For me The wheat is pointless. The wheat fields remind me of anything. And that is sad. But you have hair. Oh, it will be wonderful when you have tamed me! The gold of the wheat will bring me back to you. And I will listen to the wind love in the wheat. "
describes and then the fox, the little prince need patience to tame him, that he must take time and become familiar with it.


The" familiarize "it is. You have to know, to each other familiar and build confidence. Like Martin and me. Of course, we were friendly from the beginning. When I returned from Arabia came to him and he took me out of the box , felt I immediately that he could be my friend. I liked his smell, I liked the way he touched me, I felt that he only wants the best for me and care for me. He has fed me, he gave me massages the abdomen, he washed me, he made me stroked and played with me, he has shown me the world, he gave me the talk well when I was afraid of something, he was always there . And yes, I know the sound of his steps and I am pleased when I hear it. We belong together.
for both of us that is self-evident. We feel as if we had searched and found us. I think we will extend, if we were seen together. Therefore, understanding We also do not know why some people treat us this friendship do not want. When I hear that talk circus opponents believe that "wild animals" do not belong in the circus, then I ask myself: Have never thought about that even "wild animals" (and I do not see myself as a "wild animal" My ancestors lived. already in captivity, I was born in captivity and as a white lion I could survive in the wild is difficult. So I'm probably not a "wild animal") obviously takes to build a friendly relationship with people?
My secretary, who is also Martin's Press Officer and at length with behavioral research busy, always looking for an explanation. Normally she is good at bringing in the lion's behavior related to our evolution. But as far as our capacity for friendship with people is not really even her something. Of course, she says, it has something to do with the fact that we live lions in nature on an island only lions, but to our survival, must be able to deal with other animals and to "understand" to some extent. he must recognize that he is aggressive and can be dangerous;; A good hunter needs to see what animal from a herd separated from the others, perhaps he can be the danger signals For example, send the Zebras at the approach of a hunter, understand and react accordingly. So it is not out of the world that we can learn, "human manner" to understand and interpret the body language of a biped. He does not belong in our prey scheme, but we just Cats are known for our flexibility and intelligence. We can all significantly more than we need for mere survival in nature would.
But that explains more than our ability to close friendship with people, but not our willingness to do so. Which remains a mystery of nature. Or is it perhaps a gift from our Creator? Maybe he wanted people to give you the opportunity to expand your world through the friendship with us to another dimension? Maybe he wanted to, that we can be friends, make sure you take care of us and loves us?
In any case, I hope that you and allows us this possibility. I hope that there will be very many people, at least so far as may be known to me that they look at me and the friendship between Martin and me to experience. Friendship between animals and humans enriches all involved - we make sure that they will always be possible.

Small Ulcers Rightlarge Intestine

morning thoughts from my photo album I

Sometimes lions have their sentimental five minutes - And I have my 'today used to send my secretary, my photo album. She thinks we should share it - because I'm not only a particularly beautiful, adult lion, but a really cute baby and a very handsome young man was.
What do you mean?


My Man has always needed a lot of cuddling. Since he has me, I always made sure that he gets it.


Those were my milk teeth. But even that I've always watch carefully. People are so fragile and I did not hurt, of course, Martin.





When I was small, Martin has me take anywhere - even into the restaurant. I have always behaved as a model, my good steak from the dish eaten, the facility is not broken and do not frighten the other guests.
But now I can still no longer. Martin says he knows that I could act, but he presumed that the other guests in the restaurant would react a little nervous when he aufsteppt with an adult lion on a leash. Too bad, no?





The pretty, spotted lady behind me is Diva, Janas Dalmatian dog. We love always played together. Who says here, that lions and dogs do not like?





Lions need lots of light and sun, if they are to grow up healthy. So Martin has me in the winter is always set at's solarium. I liked it very much - and the result can still be proud, right? I've grown into a magnificent lion.





bath day for small Tonga: I swim a lot and got it enjoyed, when Martin went with me to the lake.





As a white lion one has to be on it to always be clean. So I washed my man today - and we always cuddle a bit. You know: He needs it!





us men, Martin and me in familiar conversation. We can tell us everything!

The North Face Aconcagua Jacket Womens

and the horror of horrors

My man says I am a "good boy" - and usually he's right. I am a very nice, dear, friendly, charming and of course, extremely good-looking lion. One just has to like me and I've got it like to be like me. Only sometimes ... So, how should I say it? A day at the circus is long and although I try for years, I am still not able to make clear Martin, that some things with which he deals - such as have been with the rhino - completely unnecessary. Instead, he could spend time quietly with me.

he might not and so it is inevitable that from time to time I must make my own entertainment. But at least I had time because the days fun again. I was standing that is very close to the elephant tent - and that means that the big, thick gray had at least four times each day past me.

Now I am, unlike some lions in the enclosure Ladies opposite, absolutely not interested in getting an elephant between the teeth. I mean, the girls think there probably efficient, above all, with an elephant could feed a whole family of lions for a week. Only I did not want to belong to the family. I am convinced that elephants are Ghastly tough. In addition, Jana would cry when I would scrape one of its beloved gray animals - and I can not beautiful women do not look sad, certainly not my Jana (I also suspect they would take it amiss - and then I would probably have no chance , again to get the remains of venison).

But with all due sympathy for Jana: Sometimes I stop a bit boring ...


And if you go constantly kept elephants in my area ... So, let's be honest: could you resist to the great horror vergackeiern it a bit?


I believe, in fact, elephants just do not understand a lot of fun. Moreover, they have absolutely no understanding of the needs of a luxury lions like me. The fact they have proved once again last week.

you know, I like green (yes, my favorite color is blue, but in the pen, I still like green stuff). And although my personal interior designer (= Martin) regarding the distribution of decorative leaves much to be desired and I are still every time he was my Enclosure has reworked refurbished, it must - the day I always get at least enough green stuff to play and accessorizing. And last week there were even beautiful fresh birch branches. The smelled good, the leaves ringing softly when the wind blew through it - but I like birch branches.

The elephant they may - and obviously much better than me. The fact they eat you - and every time they came in past me, saw in them that they thought, "Why is the elephant in the feed has enclosure?" Colonel Joe ran together every time the water in the mouth, and Bara was probably only their good breeding (or your mind healthy elephant? I have known quite sharp claws) deterred times to fish with his trunk for my birch twigs.

drooling elephants, which are greedy for my birch branches are funny. And there's funny, when moving the birch twigs! Then get the big horror surprised and wag their ears. It annoys them, I think - and I's could give me just can not resist: Every time the elephants marched past me, I've played it a bit with my branches. Sometimes drag a bit because to lean against it, including by zip (okay, okay whiz, is not my - to keep a lion must be on his dignity and therefore moves measured, as is proper) - everything that moves the branches and the elephant to wag ears and trumpet brings. I believe that from the need and - adds variety to their lives. And if they think at the end, the horror that I would personally - I can live with. Makes me annoyed namely elephant fun. Having said that, I am Martin's "good boy" and a really cute lion.
