Dear friends,

You may enjoy reading this article off the Born Free website with more about Christian.  They are looking for donations and would like some to join, but as you browse the site, notice some of the breathtaking wildlife photographs they have.  I really enjoyed looking over their site.

Hi Everyone,

I must tell you, I was overwhelmed with the 700 visitors since we posted the video about “Christian”, this remarkably gentle and intelligent lion  (while not surprised, it is very touching!).  Too, I was surprised how many of you were like me, that had never seen or heard of Christian before.  Where have we been?

To be of help, you may want to try and hunt these down.  (so far, I have been unsuccessful).  They are the DVD entitled, “Christian the Lion”, and the book entitled “A Lion Called Christian”.  You can find out more about these in great demand items by following this link.

Happy hunting for these “Born Free” like treasures that you and your family will surely enjoy for decades, granted you can get your hands on one.  Let me know how you do in your search.

All the best…

UPDATE: Right after we posted this, our friend Michael Rackstraw, shared this with us.  It may be helpful to any who are looking to track down these items.  Thanks Michael!

You can get a copy of the DVD, “Christian the Lion at World’s End” from the Born Free Foundation in England. By purchasing the DVD you will be helping them with their animal conservancy programmes. Try their website at http://www.bornfree.org.uk

Ok, ok, you know us by now and know that we love cats.  Well, this morning, Tuesday, July 22, 2008, on The Today Show, Meredith and David showed the well viewed video Christian the Lion (which most of us have seen multiple times), but it was so nice to see again.  I thought you might enjoy watching it again and it bring a little joy to your day today…

It’s ok to cry, no one’s looking.
