That's a one of a kind picture right there! Les can be frustrating as we all know, but he seems to have a kind soul & loving spirit. Big cats are amazingly beautiful to me, & even though Roscoe doesn't get in his cage, that pic stings a little knowing what's coming. I'm getting soft as I age, & I'm good with it. Love ya Mike

False. It is not shopped. It is a magical force field known as 4" reinforced glass that tends to be clear. It does a spectacular job at holding back water and tigers.
