  • Tiger King Connection

    I haven't watched it yet, but I just realized/discovered that the setting of it is the Big Cats Rescue my first college girlfriend volunteered at in Tampa. She took me there a few times, and while she was an untrained, unpaid volunteer, she and I had total free rein of the place. We went into cages and I pet an ocelot and a bobcat. Petting the bobcat was scary, which she got a kick out of. That things neck felt like it was made out of steel. I saw s lynx with a missing arm that had been swiped off by a lion in the next area over. I saw a cage filled with macaques, and a dead chick near by. There were chickens that wandered around (and a peacock) and apparently, if a chick came close to the cage, the Macqaques would grab them and kill them. I saw my first bearcat there--it made the whole place smell like popcorn. I now work at a school whose mascot is the bearcat. It is trippy seeing that place on the map now with the popularity of this documentary.

    That girl was a big time animal lover. Put me on the path to being a vegetarian (now a flexitarian). She had an enormous pet rat that had a tumor that was nearly half as big as it. She fed it fruit loops and insisted I pet it. The things young men do for a hot girl (when my friend from another college met her, he was legit upset and confused by how I got a girl that hot...the secret was feeding fruit loops to the tumor rat, I guess).

      Long distance over the summer. I bought a car, but she got mad at me, because while she was at work on the weekend, I was looking for qtips and found something called udder cream and asked her about it. She thought I was snooping, and she broke up with me without me knowing. She just ghosted me toward the end of the summer, and withdrew from the classes we were to have together. I saw her with someone else about a week into the Fall--she was a fast worker. I assume the rat didn't make it much longer.
