Lion cubsas you all know i have a vast family, and we all have 1 downfall we are like cats and cant stay in one place for too long. well let me rephrase that, we all like change once in a while. An aunt of mine, Avril, moved out to kenya in the late seventies with her family, they moved to a desolate farm in the middle of Kenya, my aunt Avril got a job as a nurse in a local hospital and her husband, my uncle keith had a job in the airports, he was a pilot. Anyways they have lived there for many years now, and we keep in contact via phone and email regually, and well we had a phone call yesterday and we were given news my aunt and family were fostering 2 lion cubs in there house  they have worked with a local charity for orphaned wildlife for many years, volounteering mainly, but this time was different these were around 4 day old Lion Cubs, that have to be fed from the bottle and have constant care, it was hard apparentlly to do so in the centre so my aunt volunteered to have them at her home, she was laughing with the head of the centre saying back in england i raised many a litter of kittens, the only difference now the kittens are probably the sized of Irish Wolfhound puppies But yes i am astonished that she has 2 lioness cubs in her home, my mum kept giggling and saying that my aunt avrisl house will be life born free soon  but yes i thought i would share it with you, considering lions are a cat species. Just wish i could get photos of them
