Brave Woman Plays ‘Catch the Paw’ With a Panther and It’s Impossible to Resist
Would you be willing to own an exotic pet? I have a hard time taking care of a 'regular' pet, so I can't imagine having to take care of a bear or a panther. @luna_the_pantera is a beautiful black panther whose mom rescued her as a baby. Her best friend is a Rottweiler named Venza, and the two are inseparable. But did I mention that Luna is a panther?!
Luna's mom shared a video on Thursday, October 19th of the two of them playing 'catch the paw'. The video starts with Luna and mom lying on the deck. Luna has her paw on mom's hand, and then mom moves her hand onto Luna's paw. It goes on like this for a bit, neither of them winning. But when Luna gently bites mom, that's when I decided that a panther was not the right pet for me!
@Luna's mom is brave! I couldn't imagine 'playing' with a panther! Even though she's raised the big cat since she was a baby, Luna might be a pet and part of the family but is still a wild animal. And while her playful bite didn't look like it hurt, just a few more pounds of pressure and she could bite mom's arm off...even if not on purpose!
Commenters had lots to say. @tcopetweets shared, "All cats are the same!!" @irf.mp_ pointed out, "He was like, "Heyy just play one hand only it's not fair" *innocent bite*". I laughed at @maryjean808 who said, "My panther plays this - he’s a regular cat though LOL!"
Sounds like Luna really is just a 'big' cat! I love watching how gentle she is with her family, but still don't think I'd want her as a pet.
