Our Zoo’s new tiger habitat includes glass walls so when the tiger is walking his circuit, he is practically touching us.  It’s just fantastic.  I love to sit on the ground and pretend to kiss his cheek, dive in for a hug…whatever mood strikes me.  The girls find this hilarious, because as he walks up to me, it really does look like my head is at his mouth.  It’s cool.  We’re friends.  He’s coming over for movies and popcorn.  We’ll probably cuddle.
