THEY GAVE THE LION *BACK?*

A report was received by the Ministry of Interior about a lion wandering on the roads in Sabahiya area which sparked panic. The environmental police went to the place along with the owner of the lion who happens to be a girl and along with the girl’s father (Kuwaiti citizen) and with those who raised the lion were able to recapture and hand it over to the owners.

Once Starlink installs antennas in Kuwait this should become much less of a problem.

Giving back a lion or whatever is "PAR" in Kuwaiti.
In other countries, probably vaccinated, held and owner charged for "services rendered". I wonder if the lion was "chipped". I wouldn't want to "wand" a lion much less "table" him.

The way the owner calls for their lion:
“Weem-o-wep”
“Wee-ma-wack”
“Weena-wack”
“A-ween-a-wap”
“Wingle whip”

And I must mention .. "environmental police?!" They really exist?

All the lion probably wanted was a nice head rub behind it's ears. Housecats love that. It is my belief that all cats think alike.

I'm sure big cats would like a nice head rub, but no one has the guts to do it.

Steverino, they might have the guts beforehand, but probably not afterwards.

That's the truth, and I am not lion.

Warm kitty, soft kitty, little ball of fur.
Sleepy kitty, happy kitty, purr purr purr.
