Rumblings from a strange feline world

Srigim Lion, Israel--

I was shaken out of my comfortable spot in the hammock this delightfully "warm" afternoon by the most strange of cat sounds I have ever encountered. Upon inspection, I found a mother who had just given birth, attacking her newborn while herself bleeding all over. Intellectually, I'm all for letting nature take it's course, but this was just offensive. Christ it was like taking the baby for birthing pains... a tough logical dilemma to be sure.

After fixing the poor things a little nest where they could suffer in peace, I noticed that the wee one's leg was badly injured. Three hours later, two more babies were born and the first baby, unhappily, was dead.

After that introduction, let me formally open this blog... my first. I left it simple to assure that I'm not intimidated by the work involved to actually post. Hopefully, I can slowly create a long term set of themes and topics to begin working up. And now, you're quite invited to post. No personal information required, of course.
