Little House Cat Challenges Big Lion, Proves That Size Doesn’t Matter

240

ADVERTISEMENT

Derek Krahn, a director for a non-profit big cat sanctuary he runs in Texas, recently had a priceless reaction when his domestic kitty Baggy challenged a lion named Noey. Of course, the two felines, one large and one small, were separated by a wire fence, but the tiny fellow still proved that if you’re brave and courageous, size doesn’t count.

The video went viral, partly due to Krahn’s reaction. “Baggy,” her owner called out. “You will lose!”

But Baggy wasn’t listening, and just went for it. So, if you need to muster up some courage in your life, just come back to this video. Besides, both kitties have the DNA of the big cats, so why can’t a domesticated cat have the heart of a lion?

Don’t worry, though, because the war between the two cats is over. “Baggy the housemeow has always been a tough little cookie, but I never thought she was this degree of crazy,” commented the kitty’s owner. “All is well, everything settled, and her and Noey (the lion) are back on speaking terms.”

    Before the comments might flood with "That poor lion, why is it locked up?" Lets not assume the worst people, realize that complaining on the internet will do nothing, imagine that maybe there is a good reason, and enjoy how cute that video just was!! I love that cat on a spiritual level hahahaha

    If I saw Floyd Mayweather behind a fence/partition, I'd def. talk some smack. But when that gate opened, I'd be running like a scaredy cat...

    This all boils down to Alpha male or female roles. Baggy is clearly an Alpha female and not about to give up her status to even a much larger female cat. She will always be that way with other cats. evilgrin00...6d7c37.gif evilgrin0039-59429a56d7c37.gif

    Baggy isn't playing. The lioness maybe, but Baggy means business. Fluffed tail, multiple hisses, charging, no doubt she was trying to be dominate.

    Um... That wasn't a challenge, they were playing together! Crouched with butt in the air is the universal sign for: "let's play!" A challenge would be an arched back, hissing, and growls. How does he have a cat, and take care of big cats, and not know the most basic body language?!

    Eva, let's give the kitty credit for knowing she can act brave for the camera because the lion is safely locked up.

    Size matters quite a bit, as the little cat would have discovered if the fence hadn't been there.
